One of the story lines that fascinated me mot in 'Spirit Walk' was the view of the Starfleet officers who were involved in the Dominion War were somewhat at odds with the Voyager veterans. I'm just wondering if this will be addressed again in Full Circle. I'm not asking for any details (since I know I won't get any), but I'm just curious if it will appear in some fashion.
I would guess it would be addressed since this was sort of a mojor thing in the Voyager books AFTER they returned. I can see where the people who were fighting in the war would see the former maqui members as a little untrustworthty, even though they worked as a starfleet crew for seven years and beyond. but since all the maqui were pardoned during the war, i would think after they all pitched in no one would have a problem with them. I do know that at the end of spirit walk part2 it was in question if Paris being Chakotays firts officer was a security risk since they were both in the maqui. I never really considered Paris maqui because he was caught on his first mission and didnt even really fight for or with them.
^ Plus it always seemed like Paris was an actual Starfleet officer rather than a provisional one because he wore pips rather than bars.
I couldn't be more excited for a book. Voyager: Full Circle is LONG overdue. I love Christie Golden; I really do. Fantastic Voyager author. But I interested in Kirsten Beyer and how she goign to handle the series. I've read little of her work. Off that top of my head, the only book I know I have read by her was Fusion, the 2nd book in the String Theory trilogy. That's not bad thing; it's just I am not sure what to expect because I have nothing really besides the single book to go on. I do have faith though in the new book no matter who the author is; despite what some may say, I believe the Voyager series has a good following of readers and should make the book successful.
Unfortunately it's still way too soon to be talking about specific story threads for Full Circle. Check back in about seven months.
