Summary: A great book(some conflict)
Review: A great book. It showed some conflict between Janeway And Chakotay(you don't see that everyday). you see some betrayal and lots of drama. A must read book for any Voyager fan.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Star Trek Voyager Equinox a great novelization!
Review: Equinox is an excellent novelization of the series season ending and season openers, Equinox Parts I & II. Diane Carey once again, shows why she is one of the primary authors that John Ordover and Pocket Books goes to for these novels.

The premise: The starship USS Voyager is cruising along on its merry way back to the Alpha Quadrant when they receive, to their great surprise, a Federation distress call. This, in and of itself, plays out a huge portion of the emotional intrigue for the crew of Voyager. When Captain Janeway and crew arrive on the scene, they find the USS Equinox, a Nova class science vessel under attack. What the starship is being attacked by is not immediately clear though. They rush in and extend their shields around the smaller vessel and begin to make their introductions. As one would expect, there is a lot of excitement between the two small crews, considering that both thought they were the only Federation personnel in the quadrant. What Captain Janeway and the crew of Voyager are soon to find out though is the Captain Ransom and his crew have had a lot rougher go of trying to get home than they have. I don't wish to spoil this for those that haven't read it or by chance not scene the two part episode.

Diane Carey's work on this novelization does deserve a lot of extra credit though. In many ways, this novel, in my opinion, is more intriguing and exciting than the two aired episodes. She perfectly captured the inner struggles that the primary characters, Captain Janeway, Captain Ransom and Commander Chakotay are going through. She truly captures Captain Janeways almost crazed, desire to stop Captain Ransom. This, by itself, almost costs her the relationship between her and her first officer. I've read a lot of the Star Trek novelizations and some, unlike this one, are mostly regurgitations of what was seen on the screen. There's no flair or added scenes to them. That is not the case with this wonderfully well written book. I would definitely recommend this one to any Star Trek fan or somebody just getting started with reading Star Trek.

Summary: An excellent novelization!
Review: Equinox is an excellent novelization of the Voyager episode of the same name, as it provides more exposition about the tension between Janeway and Ransom, much of which was not seen on TV.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great, Just Great
Review: Excellent book. I haven't had the fortune of actually seeing the episode but from what I heard from friends, it is great. The book is great. Great action sequences, it goes into the reasons why Ransom did what he did. I liked the ending. Now I just need to see the episode.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Great Novelization
Review: I always enjoy the novelization of any show or movie and Equinox is no different. I like the idea that we got to see more conflict between Janeway and Chakotay. Also the confict between Janeway and Ranson was also really good. My only regret is that never got to see the survivors of the Equinox again.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the best Star Trek novels ever written.
Review: I first saw this episode on UPN and then I ordered the book. Both the episode and the book were suspenseful and exciting. The characters in the book were convincing and believable. I really enjoyed reading this book.

Summary: Good
Review: I have to say that the novelization was better than the episode. For that, Diane Carey deserves a lot of credit, even though the story itself is poor. The way she wrote it made it more catchy than the episode was, and I read it more than once, even though I only saw the episode itself once. (Usually, I see episodes at least five times).
