STAR TREK DESTINY MERE MORTALS
Review by Jeff Ayers
If you want to avoid spoilers and just see my rating, then:
10 out of 10
Now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, Captain Hernandez of the Columbia and several of her crew begin to face the harsh reality that they are never going to leave Erigol. Her crew plots escape while Hernandez starts to accept her new prison, making her crewmates unhappy campers. Then the Titan arrives, and several of them are forced to stay as well, including a pregnant Deanna. On board the Titan, a worried Captain Riker must make a horrible choice. An overworked President of the Federation must ally the worlds to create a unified front against the impending terrifying threat from the Borg. Unfortunately, some of the leaders from other Federation planets would rather watch Earth collapse to save their own worlds from the onslaught.
David Mack succeeds in not only creating another rip-roaring action stunner, but also avoiding “middle book syndrome,” when the second book is nothing more than filler to get the reader to the conclusion. Never once while reading this did I feel that way. With two down and one to go, this story lives up to the hype so far.
