Finishing "Harbinger". Not sure yet what I'm going to read next.
Taking a break from this to read Star Wars: Heir to the Jedi by Kevin Hearne.Now making my way through Caliban's War, book two of The Expanse.
I read Greg Cox's TNG novel Dragon's Honor yesterday, a really fun romp in the best sense of the word. The prose was beautifully descriptive - sometimes too much so, which suited the atmosphere of the over decorated Pai, and the plot kept a pretty fast pace. There was really nice use of all the cast in their own subplots as well as nice character touches, such as a brief look at the late season 7 Riker/Troi/Worf triangle that enhanced the reading experience. A really lovely way to spend a lazy day.
One thought I was left with though was that the Pai, who were negotiating for admittance into the Federation were extremely sexist. I'm not really sure of the exact requirements are for a planet to be ready to join the Federation, but don't they generally have to have ended discrimination of women and other minorities?
