Summary: Deep, interesting.........
Review: I absolutely loved this book! It can make you step back, zoom out a little from life, if you will. I am in my entirety addicted to temporal paradoxes and dimensional phenomena, and let me tell you, I found this book to be one of the best I've read. My greatest hope is that someday I'll be able to write like this, my being fourteen at the moment. Well, my best advice is try it out! You'll either be hooked or asleep.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FROM AN HONEST VOYAGER FAN..
Review: I agree with the sentiments of most in here, especially Barry Nabbs, when I say this is a definately MUST READ for a Voyager fan. I too found it very reminiscent of "Year of Hell", and also had to keep flipping back pages to put together in my mind just which Voyager I was dealing with in that particular chapter. However, if you love Janeway and the way she aggresively takes command when the going gets rough, as well as her sensitive side, you really should read Echoes. it's a real treat because you are not only dealing with Voyager...but SEVERAL Voyagers with several crews. Actually this book reminded me of more than one episode. But still, its a great read. GO FOR IT!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good effort.
Review: I always like the stories about paralel universes in Star Trek such as 'Q' Squared and 'Dark Mirror'. However, 'Echoes' gave me confusion about the universes. The best example to use is 'Q Squared' where Peter David used Track 1, Track 2, and so on. This eliminates the confusion of the multiple universes, especially when there are only slight differences between the universes in 'Echoes'. Furthermore, the ending in 'Echoes' is somewhat puzzling. If the Voyager ended the timeline, then what is the purpose of the story in the first place. Other stories about paralel universes show endings in the timeline, continuing the timeline itself, not ending it. Well, this novel is a good effort, but it should have become better.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is an excellent book !
Review: I am an avid Star Trek book fan, as well as a fan of the alternate universe storylines. This book delivers. I wasn't able to put the book down, and found myself flipping through pages and pages just to see what would happen next. " Echoes " also gets the job done by showing the ' what - ifs ' and thinking process of the crew of the Voyager in all realities. I highly recommend this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very interesting...
Review: I must say, when I first purchased Echoes, I expected it to be alittle more. It was written exceptionally, but my only complaint is it was confusing at times. Different chapters take place in paralell universes, with the same characters. After you read a few chapters, you kind of get what's going on, but for a while, I was just confused.

There wasn't that much character development, but it was interesting to see the characters interact with their alternate selves form other universes.

The book does have some very interesting scenes. You can tell the writers emphasized the character's feelings on what was happening. Overall, Echose was pretty good, I gave it 4/5, however, I wouldn't read it again.

Summary: Interesting and Rich
Review: I really did enjoy this book and thought it to be a great example of the Star Trek Voyager series. It kept me on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what would happen to all of the people in the vaccum of space.....you can really get into this book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Love This Book!
Review: I really enjoyed this book! Maybe I'm just a sucker for parralel universes, but I thought it was wonderful! The only slight downside was that it was hard to keep track of which universe was which.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A great book with a gripping plot!!
Review: I thought this was a brilliant Voyager book but at times it tend to become rather like an episode from the show. The plot itself was gripping and very motivated but I did have to keep looking back to check where I was!! The story ended brilliantly but I couldn't help getting a deja vu feeling - Series Four, "Year Of Hell" springs to mind!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very interesting!
Review: Lots of stories about parallel universes. I was moved about people who had to go to die through time. They flooded space!! Lots of multiple Voyagers crews tried to work it out together. I liked short chapters and fast reads. A good read!! I couldn't put it down!
