Continuing the post-television Deep Space Nine saga comes this thrilling original novel from New York Times bestselling author David R. George III!

More than two years have passed since the destruction of the original Deep Space 9. In that time, a brand new, state-of-the-art starbase has replaced it, commanded by Captain Ro Laren, still the crew and residents of the former station continue to experience the repercussions of its loss. For instance: Quark continues his search for Morn, as the Lurian—his best customer and friend—left Bajor without a word and never returned. Quark enlists a private detective to track Morn down, and she claims to be hot on his trail. Yet the barkeep distrusts the woman he hired, and his suspicions skyrocket when she too suddenly vanishes. At the same time, Kira Nerys emerges from a wormhole after being caught inside it when it collapsed two years earlier. She arrives on the new DS9 to discover Altek Dans already there. While inside the Celestial Temple, Kira lived a different life in Bajor’s past, where she fell in love with Altek. So why have the Prophets moved him forward in time…and why have They brought him and Kira together?

Just got my copy. Going to start reading it after i'm done with JJM's Prey trilogy

 

Your post in the Latest acquisition thread actually was the reason I posted this thread. I usually try to post the review threads when the first sightings in the wild are reported.

 

Oh dang, I gotta get on this one. Still not on the shelf where I get my books from.

Edit: "February 28th 2017" D'oh. No wonder.

 

And to think I just started "Sacraments of Fire"...

 

Here already! Time really moves fast the older you get.

 

I'd forgotten this was due out, then BD sent off my copy today!

 

I've been waiting for this one to continue the Kira story.

Hopefully it's better than "Force & Motion".

 

This is due out in a week?

 

It's the same routine as it has been for years, the ebook is released on the last Tuesday in a month and the paperback can appear before hand depending on a myriad of variables.

 

I just picked it up two days ago. So far A++ (that's up to Section 2).

 

Could look for it this weekend, but I already arranged for a download.

 

Could you not cancel the download?

 

I definitely want to get this book .I'm looking forward to finding about what Kira has been up to and all the other characters too.

 

On a scale of Revelation and Dust (almost no plot movement whatsoever) to Raise the Dawn (mindblowing revelations and a ton of surprises), how much happens in this book?

 

That would be cheating! Just get your own copy.
