Negative Positive
Title: yes and no
Review: This book has a lot to recommend it, and the reviewers enthusing below are not altogether off the mark. It is well-written,the story is interesting, the characters are lively (particularly the alien admiral), the battle scenes are vivid, and the ending is clever. However, characters change rank from chapter to chapter, the math is frequently wrong, and the Star Trek continuity errors are glaring enough for a reader with a fairly low-intensity interest in the series (e.g. me) to notice them. It is an enjoyable book, with more cerebral and philosophical awareness than most mass-market novels, but it's not quite a masterpiece. END
