Rating: 5 stars
Summary: History and action
Review: This book was great. The audio version left out all of the good parts, but the book is wonderful. You learn about the character Kahless, and it is not a dull story.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Four stars
Review: This is a well-written book full of creativity, intrigue, action and drama. I like Modern age but Heroic age is delightfully more fascinating.

Only reason this book doesn't deserve five stars is this book hardly felt original.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great star trek book
Review: To those who are not familiar with Star Trek. During the Next Generation series the original Kahless was cloned by some Klingon clerics by using his DNA. The cloned Kahless was made a figurehead emperor. Michael Jan Friedman novel is about this Kahless. Apparently a Klingon cleric has found a scroll that reveals that the legend of Kahless is not what everyone assumed it to be. Instead of being a great warrior he was a man pushed into a situation beyond his control. The validity of the restored emperor becomes suspect. This threatens to throw the Klingon empire into a civil war (WHAT ELSE IS NEW !! ).

The story goes back and forth between the present and the time of the original Kahless. Of course Lt. Worf is at the center of the controversy. He was appointed to analyze the documents ( a copy was sent to him on the Enterprise). The documents were found to be authentic. The real Kahless wrote and left the documents in order to clarify the legend that was growing about him.

This book is one of the better Star Trek novels. Michael Jan Friedman is probably the best Star Trek author. He does an excellent job in describing (or better yet creating) Klingon culture, especially ancient Klingon culture that is not described in any of the Star Trek series or movies.
