Rating: Summary: A Worthy Entry Review: While each of the five Star Trek series brings something uniquely entertaining to the small and big screens, there has always been something especially intriguing in Deep Space Nine. This latest entry in th re-launch is no exception. It provides intriguing characters and relationships (such as Vaughn and his daughter, Nog and Shar) that make this series so enjoyable.While it is fun to finally see exploration return to the Gamma Quadrant, it is familiar, and immensely enjoyable to return to the religious and political intrigue aboard DS9 itself. How Kira handles her attainder, as well as the fanatical jackasses who forced it on her, is very well written, and gives her character a whole new level of believability. An especially great new angle is Ro as Odo's replacement, not to mention her possible romantic interest in Quark. It provides some very entertaining scenes, and some greater insight into both Ro and Quark. Who would ever have thought that Quark actually had som depth. Speaking of Quark, I also thought it was fun that David George managed to fit in brief reminders of his last DS9 novel, "The 34th Rule". It adds to the story as well as providing a bit of nostalgia. All in all, this is an exciting and worthy addition to the saga that is Deep Space Nine.
