Summary: DS9 #14 The Long Night - A very well written novel!
Review: Over the years, the husband and wife writing team of Dean Wesley Smith and Kristine Kathryn Rusch have turned out some of the best, most intriguing and enlightening Star Trek tales in the genre and "The Long Night" is no exception to that proven track record. As is standard with their novels, the plot set up and execution is perfect and the pacing of the novel is fast.The cover art for "The Long Night" is somewhat standard for the time in which the novel is published, leaving much to be desired. The premise: Centuries ago, the Supreme Ruler of Jibet fled a democratic uprising taking with him many priceless works of art. Quark, being the good Ferengi that he is, hears of the whereabouts of this treasure and ends up leading Sisko and crew to not only the treasure but the Supreme Ruler himself, in cryogenic suspension. This discovery keenly sparks the interests of Jibet itself and they send a fleet to Deep Space Nine. Dr. Bashir struggles to keep the ruler alive and Jake and Nog discover even deadlier evidence of Cardassian involvement. What follows from there is one of the best Trek novels written by these authors and most certainly one of the best numbered Deep Space Nine novels to date that I highly recommend to any and all fans of Star Trek fiction. {ssintrepid}

Summary: Not memorable
Review: This book occurred a couple of years into the series so the characters were still being fleshed out so the focus was more on finding new missions to write about. While everything was traced back to Cardassian involvement showing the same narrow focus that the first few seasons did. Also the books needed to get broader in scope and characterization. This book was a slow start and the only part that was true to the series was the Quark and Odo conflict.

Summary: Excellent book.
Review: This is a marvellous addition to the "Deep Space Nine" series; the writing itself is mostly extremely well-done, the characterizations are very good, the pacing is excellent, and the mix of action, drama, and humor is superb. One of the best of the "Deep Space Nine" novels.
