Good catch, I hadn't even noticed that.

Neither had I. This makes me more anticipatory of the trilogy (which is saying a lot considering I am very very much looking forward to it already). Although, that doesn't necessarily mean it will include Iliana, one can remain hopeful.

... not necessarily Ziyal herself... Although her life as a youngin' could be interesting and finding out how she became a Breen slave and prior to that how she lived and coped with the loss of her mother.

uhm...she was on a ship that crashed on a planet where the Breen found 'em and made the survivors work as slave labor. Since everyone thought the ship had been lost or destroyed, she was stuck for quite awhile before bein' found by Kira & Dukat durin' DS9's fourth season.

So, yeah, I'd say that's how she became a slave for the Breen.

I wasn't under the impression that they had found her immediately upon the ship crashing, but if that's what happened then that's fine too, whatever. Although there is still story to be told about what led up to the ships crashing as she obviously wasn't an infant when it did.

Looks like Dukat is in it right from the start. Cool.

Oh yeah.

 

[TigerBait]

can anyone confirm if Tain could be in these books, there's no reason why the order wouldnt have operations going on at Bajor.

 

[foravalon]

They certainly did have operations in the form of Illiana Ghemor!

 

[toughlittleship]

Maybe Damar as well? Or Rusot?

 

[foravalon]

Why do you think they were Obsidian Order?

 

[DS9Continuing]

No, he's just asking whether they'll be in the book. To which my answer is, why would you think they wouldn't be?

 

[LightningStorm]

Here's something I'm kinda wondering. Will these be at all continuous with the DS9 Rebels Trilogy? I'm guessing probably not, but curious.

 

[Trent Roman]

^ Hopefully not. I loathed the Rebels trilogy and would gladly see it forgotten.

As for Damar - wasn't he a pretty menial officer aboard Dukat's freighter who only rose to prominence by riding Dukat's coattails back to the top? I can't imagine him having any significant role in the Occupation, though perhaps as a POV character for the Cardassian grunts...

Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

Kira looks a little bit like Sito Jaxa to me. Not that it doesn't look like Kira.
