Summary: STV #9 Invasion! The Final Fury - A great conclusion!
Review: "The Final Fury" serves wonderfully as the conclusion to this first grand four book crossover series! From his very first Star Trek novel, Deep Space Nine's #5 "Fallen Heroes," Dafydd ab Hugh has proven that he can write compelling Star Trek stories and "The Final Fury" serves beautifully in furthering that tradition.As with his other stories, I found "The Final Fury" to be a highly compelling and intriguing tale based on a sound premise with excellent plot setup and execution and the pacing of the novel is extremely fast making for a very quick and satisfying read! The cover art for this novel is nothing extraordinary, which, sadly enough is more the standard for the time in which this novel was published. The premise: While the battle rages on in the Alpha quadrant between its inhabitants and the invading Furies, the USS Voyager and her gallant crew are steadily making their way home when they receive a distress call from a Starfleet vessel, something of which they thought they'd never hear again. They soon discover the source of the distress call and massive Fury invasion fleet on a constructed planetoid containing twenty seven billion Furies. As the novel progresses, Captain Janeway finds herself in one heck of a quandary as she comes upon the realization that in order to save the Alpha quadrant, she must destroy the twenty seven billion Furies who are bent on invading the Alpha quadrant and a possible way for her ship to make it home quicker, if there is to be a home to return to... What follows from there is nothing less than a impressive and decidedly compelling Star Trek Voyager novel and a brilliant finale to Star Trek fiction's first crossover series. I highly recommend not only this novel but the entire "Invasion!" series, whether you procure the individual books or the "Invasion!" Omnibus. {ssintrepid}

Summary: This book ROCKS !!!
Review: Final Fury was pretty intresting. Since it takes place during 1st season, it falls under the first season syndrome. All the characters were not fully developed. There was some humor in it (look for the prison scene, the best in the whole book). I liked the reversal in the story at the end. If you have the time and want to read about Janeway and the crew, read this book.

Summary: It is the WORST book in the Invasion series!!!
Review: I agree witt Kamala222. The characters are out of place, and some of the things that the crew does and some of the thing that happen to the ship just would not happen. B'Elanna Torres was not used to the equipment on the ship. If she was not used to the equipment then why was she made Chief Engineer!!! This guy needs to understand Star Trek before he begins to write about it. Especially the final book in the Invasion series. If you are a TRUE Star Trek fan you will not get this book. It stincks!!!!!!!!

Summary: A good finish to the series
Review: I have not watched much Voyager, but I liked this book a great deal. The story was well plotted, the characters real and the tie-ins to the other books very well done. I won't spoil things, but the crew of the Voyager are worthy of being the ones to put an end to the Furies, if anyone can. Janeway is a good captain and the crew gives it their all. Enjoy the book. I did

Summary: A few scenes saved it.
Review: I like most Star Trek novels. They get talky and slow sometimes, but I try to plow through them. This one was almost more than I could take. Usually I can write long reviews about the books, but this would give me a headache. The bottom line: too many character mistakes, too much description and technological dribble, and only a few memorable scenes. First of all, Hugh obviously did not backround read on the Voyager series since most of the dialogue or interaction between the characters was out of place. B'Elanna's emotional insecurity would have gone well in an early Season One novel but not Season Three. The Doctor pretty much openly admits his crush on Kes, Tom NEVER called Harry by "Kim", and Neelix would be the first one to panic in the event of a capture not the one to get them out of it (hey, I like Neelix, but it isn't him). On top of those inconsistencies, the parts with the "fear beam" and the whole B'Elanna and Redbay mission was just Blah. I'll be the first to admit that I skipped that entire part. And just one nitpick thing: did anyone else who read "Soldiers of Fear" find it odd that Kes was uneffected by the furys as Troi was? Kes had powerful telepathic abilities in the series, but didn't even use them here. Never mind, I'll be quiet now. I have to say, the only scene really worth reading the book for was when Tuvok, Janeway, and Neelix were trying to escape from the Fury's jail. Although Neelix was out of character, it was pretty funny and had the best dialogue in the book. But, I did think it was stupid they used a h--- p-- to get out (I can't give it away!). That's all. The book was, to me, a total flop. I hope Hugh gets it right the next time (I hope there never is a next time!). After all, how hard is it to read a copy of Jeri Taylor's "Pathways" or "Mosaics" (two excellent books) so that you understand the characters? I mean, jeez, you're supposed to write about what you know. Unless you are intent on completing the Fury series or have a mission to read every Star Trek book, skip this one. Period.

Summary: Great books in a series for a new Star Trekkie to read
Review: I really did enjoy this lastest Star Trek Voyager book in the ST:INVASION series. I had humor, Neelix was a little annoy, but to think that we keeps an extra combadge and phaser in his boot(I always wondered why his waddled like a duck). and the Doctor was hilarious! "Ah, I see you are about to engage in some dangerously theatrical maneuvers in the middle of a supernova. Do you, by any chance, expect any casualities?" p252 I would suggest anyone to read this book for a good laugh...

Summary: Not to Shabby
Review: I think Dafydd Ab Hugh did a pretty good job wrapping up the sereis. There was a time in the begining that it was a little boring, but a lot of books do that. Kamala would have you believe it is the worst book in the series, but it is not. It is also not the best, but it most definately is not the worst. Go ahead and read it. It has some really interesting stuff I think you might enjoy
