Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Better than average Trek
Review: Perhaps those who gave Imbalance only one star didn't stick around to finish it. It does start slowly, painfully slowly. However, it picks up soon and has some fine scenes. Riker, Worf, Keiko, and Crusher each find themselves alone and trapped on an alien world, with the former three in particular undergoing interesting, tension building adventures. In the end, the only major complaints to be had are a too petty O'Brien and a deus ex machina via transporter.

There are no deep revelations or insights here, just a pleasant read with some fun images that will linger - like that of Riker becoming a human toboggan.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: The Jarada culture is interesting,and that's all!!!
Review: There is only one word to descibe this book:BORING!!!This book was so boring that I almost didn't finish it.It rates at the top of my least favorite "star trek" books(right up there with "Crossroad")Stareing at cracks in the ceiling is more fun than reading this book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Ant people try to join the Federation.
Review: This book was the SLOWEST STUPIDEST book I've ever read in all the 20-30 Star Trek Books I have. These "ant" people are bugs that are trying to join the Federation. But they are really kidnapping the doctor of the Enterprise (Crusher) to cure thier "maddness". This book was such a bore The author should be shot. At least there is no way a book can get any worse.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Insectoid Beings...
Review: This is one of the only Star Trek books I come close to even liking. For a few reasons. 1) I like alien races. 2) I like insects. 3) I like a story to have a touch of mystery.

Yes, as many have pointed out, the story is somewhat slow, but the author has to build up the foundation. If you don't get time to know the aliens and their planet than the rest of the book and the plot itself is meaningless.

But yes, it is slow for people who do not like the three reasons I listed.
