Martin features the Romulan Star Empire engaging in all-out war against Earth. Right under his nose the Romulans attacked and destroyed a helpless human cargo ship, the Kobayashi Maru, and there was nothing Jonathan Archer could do to stop it. The captain knows that the Romulans are done testing the waters, and they have perfected a way of remotely controlling Coalition ships and using them as weapons against each other, thus succeeding in driving a wedge of suspicion and mistrust between these new allies. The Romulans now are going to strike at what they see as the heart of their problem, Earth. Can the fragile coalition of planets hold up to war? Mirror Universe: Rise Like Lions In this follow-up by bestselling author David Mack, the Terran rebellion erupts into a full-scale revolution, toppling the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance and ushering in a new era for the Mirror Universe. In this alternate Star Trek universe, Miles O’Brien struggles to hold together his fragile band of rebels in the fight against the overwhelming forces of the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance. The standoff provokes increasingly frequent and violent clashes of wills between Regent Martok of the Klingon Empire and Legate Dukat, leader of the Cardassian Union. Meanwhile, Dukat plans a secret invasion of Terok Nor as a means of gaining the political upper hand within the Alliance. Vanguard: What Judgments Come

It started off really well and I was really engaged.... then Bennett made me feel like I was not equipped to read this novel by virtue of all the temporal jargon he put in there. Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time makes sense to me. This did not. Thankfully, its now picking up again with the character work between new OC Teresa Garcia and the Deltan. An interesting concept and a great wealth of history of time travel that Bennett has drawn on... but he needs to stop spouting page-long paragraphs of pure unadulterated timey-wimey technobabble. I gave up reading the novel. It got too technical for me. Of course, I was just comin off my 1st semester of school in 6 years so I'm not sure how well my brain was reacting. I wanna give it another shot.

Edit: They have also released the first blurb for What Judgments Come Operation Vanguard has risked countless lives and sacrificed entire worlds to unlock the secrets of the Shedai, an extinct alien civilization whose technology can shape the future of the galaxy. Now, Starfleet's efforts have roused the vengeful Shedai from their aeons of slumber. As the Taurus Reach erupts with violence, hundreds of light-years away, on "The Planet of Galactic Peace," Ambassador Jetanien and his counterparts from the Klingon and Romulan empires struggle to avert war by any means necessary. But Jetanien discovers their mission may have been designed to fail all along... Meanwhile, living in exile on an Orion ship is the one man who can help Starfleet find an ancient weapon that can stop the Shedai: Vanguard's former commanding officer, Diego Reyes. THE END OF THE EPIC SAGA BEGINS Edited 1 time by YubYubCommander Jul 4 11 10:01 PM.
