"The Undefeated" is a beautifully crafted novella about unconscious privilege, ubiquitous slavery and their consequences, seen through the eyes of a memorable, if not always reliable, narrator. What I enjoyed most about this book was the way Una McCormack slowly built up my unde...
This is an anthology, framed by an alternate version of "The Visitor" (i.e. without the desperate struggle to save his father) where Jake shows his visitor his new book, a collection of short stories set on and around Deep Space Nine. Ha'mara by Kevin G. Summers is set right after "Emissary". Sisk...
While Crusher and Picard attend a conference over the offer by the Venetans to the Tzenkethi to use some of their starbases (those close to Federation, Cardassian and Ferengi space respectively), Dax is joined by SI commander Peter Alden, visiting one of the starbases in question and trying to deter...

Tthere's a new political movement coming to power, Cardassia First, populist, isolationist, xenophobic, just on the eve of the withdrawal of the Federation fr...
