DS9: Avatar, Book One by S.D. Perry Review Thread (Spoilers!)

I loved the Avatar books (I actually read them together in Twist of Faith).
It felt like the perfect continuation to the the TV show, which I felt had ended unresolved.

It's also the book that motivated me to start reading all the other Star Trek books. Which is a decision I was very happy I made. So I suppose it'll always have that special honour.

I can definitely agree with that.
I think he's the only one that's a fully formed character in my head when I read about him.
Although there are a few others that are getting there.

 

Too bad that it didn't end well for him

 

Did Raise the Dawn or Revelation and Dust mention if Vaughn was

buried on Bajor?

^^^ Good question. I don't believe it's been addressed.

Mustn't have read the book your referencing yet.

Have a few more DS9 books to read and I'm not past Destiny in the other books.

Sad to hear things don't end well for him.
Seems to be a fate many of the book-only characters suffer.

 

Yeah dude, watch the spoilers. This is a thread for the FIRST DS9 launch book.

 

I just finished Book 1 and anxious to start Book 2. I bought these when first released, but did not get around to reading them until now. I'm so glad I finally found some time.

My only complaint is one that I've heard from others; that this should have been one book. There really isn't a climax for the first installment. It just seems to end with a chapter stop. But I have faith that Book Two will be just as good.

 

^ I'm roughly at the same point. Just getting into Book #2. I'm glad i waited as well. Really enjoying it so far

 

^ Since a couple of people are reading book two at the moment, should I post a Review Thread for it now?

A classic review thread for it is scheduled anyway for mid May, so I could just bring it forward a couple of weeks.

 

Sounds good to me. I'm catching up on my Trek-lit after more than a decade away, so I haven't read many of the books up for review. But I'll have Avatar Book 2 finished next.

 

Done:
