Awww, don't be so hard on yourself! While I did find the pace a little bit slower (it was a fair bit longer), I felt this book provided a real close connection with many of the main characters. I especially liked the diplomatic quandaries of Jetaien, the Klingons, & Tholians and all the politicking involved.Kevin Dilmore said:
