Summary: Some of my favorite Star Trek Characters Return
Review: "Homecoming" by Christie Golden is the first post-Star Trek Voyager book to released. This book picks right up after the events in "Endgame." While I enjoyed the begiinging of the book, "Homecoming" quickly turn in the The Doctor/Seven of Nine/Janeway book. I have admit that when this happen that I began to lose interest. Ms. Golden only spent two or three chapters on Voyager's return and then brought up Holograms rights and the Borg. I would have been more interested on the crew was doing on being home for the first time in seven years. Also, Ms. Golden missed a great chance to tie up the storylines on of minor characters that fates were never know to the viewers/readers. Would I read the second book in the series? Most likely, but I may wait it hit the used bookstore.

Summary: Welcome back, old friends
Review: Homecoming lives up to its name, picking up exactly where the Star Trek: Voyager series left off at the end of its final episode. Golden knows the characters and, assuming that her readers already know them as well, wastes no time describing them. Her tone for each character is well chosen, and I was able to hear the actors' voices in my head during each conversation. The plot moves along quickly and the only disappointment is that the crew is no longer on Voyager.This book is for fans of the series only. Others will be lost due to the lack of character development. Still, for those of us who feel that Voyager's return home has, ironically, made us lose contact with old friends, Homecoming is a pleasant reunion. Too bad the sequel doesn't deliver.

Summary: Romance Novel/Soap Opera
Review: Cristie Golden proves her amaturish writing skills with this Voyager novel. Broken into two books (when in truth the text of both novels was "expanded" over 250+ pages which could have been compiled in one book)the story quickly bogs down with too much going on, yet not enough happening. The story starts out well enough, however, on top of the Voyager crew, Golden adds in a number of other characters, and even focuses far too much on her additional characters, pushing some of the Voyager crew off to the side. The story not only pushes and pulls the reader into multiple scenarios, there are too many breaks, and the story is so fragmented and chopped that most events become boring and uninspiring. Don't look for any excitement, as after putting Homecoming down, I felt like I had read my first romance novel. At the very least the book feels like a soap opera with the multiple characters and the constant discription of "handsome men", or "boring men" strewn about. Any of Golden's male creations of consequence just happen to be strikingly gorgeous and compassionate. We spend too much time learning about Libby Webber than seeing what Harry Kim, Tom Paris, or even Tuvok are doing. There is definetly an "Ally McBeal/Sex in the City" attitude with this dull creation of a character. Forget originality, Golden beats us over the head with more Borg and Holograms, something the series itself ran dry long ago. My personal advice; leave this one on the shelf, and let the series end where it did. This novel lacks creativity, and I'd even dare to say knowledge or understanding of much of the actual series.

Summary: A perfect beginning for a new series.
Review: Christie Golden, in her new Star Trek Voyager novel, Homecoming, has created a story that captures the same spirit and characterization of all of our beloved heroes from the TV series.
Homecoming picks up right where Voyager ended: the crew are now back in the Alpha Quadrant after their seven year journey from the Delta Quadrant. All of the former crew of the U.S.S. Voyager meet up with the loved ones they left behind, including Captain Janeway, who is soon promoted to Admiral. Her former fiancee Mark makes an appearance with his wife and infant son. Even Ensign Kim (now a lieutenant) reunites with his former lover, Libby, although she now possesses a secret she is forbidden to tell him. As a special surprise, we also get to see Captain Picard and Counselor Troi in cameos, both of Star Trek The Next Generation fame. This book is part one of two and chronicles two separate story lines that will be presumably concluded with the second book. One arc entails a hologram revolution sparked by the Doctor's original holonovel, "Photons Be Free." And the other story follows a strange Borg-virus that seems to appear spontaneously in younger children and elderly adults, with no cure in sight. A Starfleet admiral suspects Admiral Janeway and the Voyager crew (because of the ship's newly acquired technology from the Borg and the future) to be the cause of this new virus. Seven of Nine and Icheb, both former drones, are imprisoned as prime suspects. Overall it was a very enjoyable book, easy to read, and a quick page turner. This is a must for all Voyager fans who loved the show and want to see their favorite characters' lives continued. Hopefully this book and its counterpart will be but the first in a new series that can chronicle their further adventures. Only one downpoint--there is never any communication with the one Voyager crewmember who was unable to complete the journey back to the Alpha Quadrant--Neelix. But hopefully we will see him in the next book.

Summary: The journey continues for the crew of Voyager!
Review: This book did a good job in continuing from the last episode of Voyager, and is also available in book form, with the same title as the TV program "Endgame." I really enjoyed "Homecoming", and I especially liked the various strands that Christie Golden teased out of the book that were already part of the TV series, such as Seven of Nine's relationship blossoming relationship with Chakotay, B'Elanna Torres search for her mother, Naomi Wildman's first meeting with her father and a host of other Voyager to earth experiences. Among all of this though is an earth in flux, the Borg is a constant threat on the horizon and the war with the Dominion has seriously weakened the Federation. Janeway and her crew have come not to adulation and joy (other than to their families and friends) but a time of suspicion and change. And now there is a plague being unleashed upon earth and it is of Borg origin. Seven of Nine and Icheb are being blamed and Janeway once again has to fight for the lives of those she holds dear to her heart... Homecoming has a sequel called "The Farther Shore" and it definitely needs reading to complete this mini-trilogy that started with "Endgame." Good Trekkie fun that doesn't leave you disappointed.
