For two seasons, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine chronicled
the intense struggle of the Federation, fighting alongside
the Klingons and the Romulans against the overwhelming forces
of the Dominion. Now, for the first time, see how the Dominion
War affected the entirety of the Star Trek universe.
From the heart of the Federation to the bridge of the Starship
Enterprise. From the edge of the New Frontier to the corridors
of station Deep Space Nine...
Tales
of the Dominion War is a collection of short stories written
by some of the finest Star Trek novelists who unravel
new tales from this seminal period in galactic history. Heroes
from three generations - Sisko, Picard, Spock, Kira, Calhoun,
Klag, McCoy, Gold, and many more - all have their tales to
tell of the Dominion War.
I
was a little sceptical about whether this collection would
work. While the Dominon War originally featured in the final
two seasons of DS9, I couldn't really see how the writers
were going to open up these events to encompass the entire
Trek universe, without appearing too forced.
What
we end up with is a great collection of short stories which
are so easy to dip in and out of. And The Dominion War
Timeline at the end of this collection is also a nice
touch.
What
could so easily have been an American flag waving exercise
transferred to the Trek universe ends up providing
a surprisingly thought provoking and insightful new slant
on the history of the United Federation of Planets.
