Product Description:


Lieutenant Robin Lefler's mother died in a shuttle explosion ten years ago. So is the woman being held prisoner in Thallonian space really her? If it is, what is her connection to the mysterious woman holding a weapon that could doom entire worlds?

With the lives of billions at stake, Robin Lefler, Captain Calhoun and the crew of the U.S.S. Excalibur must find the answers before time runs out for them and for the struggling remnants of the once-great Thallonian Empire.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Improvement Over Previous Book
I enjoyed this novel much more than than Martyr. The return of Robin Lefler's mother and the intrigue surrounbding her was very interesting. Morgan seems like she will play an important role in future books. What I didn't like about this novel was the continued soap opera qualities that other reviewers have alluded to. ***SPOILER*** First, why would most of the crew turn to a Vulcan for romantic advice? They mate only when they absolutely have to, and while they are capable of love, is it really ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Keep your eyes on Lefler...
Very interesting story... Well done... There were two side stories... 1 with Robin Lefler... and 2 with Burgy in engineering... I am not going to say anything... but please read this book carefully... I did and I enjoyed the surprises.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Best of the series so far.
Peter David is an excellent author, the best Star Trek author I've found. He is one of the few who can tell a dramatic, action-packed story without losing his sense of humor, as was done in some of the best episodes in the original Star Trek series ("Trouble With Tribbles", "A Piece of the Action", "Shore Leave") and has only rarely been seen since. I've enjoyed this series so far, and the characters in it (which is, perhaps, the most important thing in a book or a series). But there are a couple of caveats ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Star Trek New Frontier No 6 Fire on High
One of the great things about this series, in my opinion, is that the author Peter David is not hindered by the guidelines that apply to the stand alone books or for that matter the miniseries that seem to be popping up every couple of months. I've noticed that other reviewers have complained about the sex scenes in the books. Oh well, it adds some flavor and character to the series. Part of Gene Roddenberry's ethos about Star Trek was that he didn't want too much interplay between the main characters like ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The further adventures of the USS Excalibur
This series has really come into its own by this book. This time, Lt. Robin Lefler comes to centre stage when her mother - thought dead for ten years - shows up alive and well in the Thallonian Sector.

With some themes that mirror some original-series Star Trek, and some good character development on the parts of Dr. Selar, Chief Burgoyne, the enigmatic Si Cwan, and Commander Shelby, this book definately kicks the "New Frontier" series into high gear.

Peter David has done some wonderful ... Read More
