Spoilers PRO: Escape Route by Cassandra Rose Clarke - Review Thread

[Avro Arrow]

Finally started it. Apparently a lot has happened since the mid-season cliffhanger of the Protostar having been turned into a weapon to destroy Starfleet.

It may be too late, you may have already been spoiled, but I believe you watch the shows through their DVD releases… the second half of season 1 is already out, so you could put the book on hold and watch the rest of the season first, if you wanted. My understanding is that the book takes place between season 1 and 2.

Already have it. I'd planned on finishing DSCs4 first, but under the circumstances, I've made a change of plans. I've just gotten through "Asylum" and "Let Sleeping Borg Lie."

I should correct myself here, but will put it in spoiler tags for those who have not yet watched.

It doesn't actually take place between seasons 1 and 2, but rather takes place between the the first part of season 1 episode 20, and the last part of season 1 episode 20.

And as I noted elsewhere, the book is a spoiler for how Season 1 plays out, and the last few minutes of Season 1 is a spoiler for how the book plays out. And it also

sets up the potential for some serious timey-wimey shit.

At any rate, it was an interesting read.
