Product Description:
Within every federation and every empire, behind every hero and every villain, there are the worlds that define them. In the aftermath of Unity and in the daring tradition of Spock's World, The Final Reflection, and A Stitch in Time, the civilizations most closely tied to Star Trek: Deep Space Nine can now be experienced as never before...in tales both sweeping and intimate, reflective and prophetic, eerily familiar and utterly alien.
FERENGINAR: Quark's profit-driven homeworld is rocked with scandal as shocking allegations involving his brother's first wife, the mother of Nog, threaten to overthrow Rom as Grand Nagus of the Ferengi Alliance. Making matters worse, Quark has been recruited by Rom's political adversaries to join their coup d'état, with guarantees of all Quark ever dreamed if they succeed in taking his brother down. While Ferenginar's future teeters on the edge, the pregnancy of Rom's current wife, Leeta, takes a difficult turn for both mother and child.
THE DOMINION: Since its defeat in the war for the Alpha Quadrant, the Great Link -- the living totality of the shape-shifting Founders -- has struggled with questions. At its moment of greatest doubt, its fate, and that of the Dominion itself, is tied to Odo's investigation of his kind's true motives for sending a hundred infant changelings out into the galaxy.
As Odo searches for answers and takes a hard look at his past choices, Taran'atar reaches a turning point in his own quest for clarity...one from which there may be no going back.

The first part of the book satisfaction is not guaranteed is excellent its Quark and his family acting the way Quark and his family should act. It also includes appearances by most of the secondary members of Ferenginar society we have come to love over the years and it does not disappoint. Every Deep Space Nice fan should get the book for this story.
I did not like Olympus Descending half as much as I liked the first story. While there is some interesting interaction between Odo ... Read More

First half of "Ferenginar" deals with Ferengi culture thru Quarks eyes as his brother Rom is being deposed from the position of Grand Nagas. Well written, the Ferengi are the 'spice' that StarTrek needs. A very enjoyable read.
Second half of book deals with Odo and his relationship with the "Great Link" and the Dominion, Odo seeks out his origins and finds unexpected answers and challenges.

Apparently, a main character in the Deep Space Nine saga is killed in this installment. It has so many interesting ramifications. Not only was a main character killed, another critical revelation was made which was just as shocking as the killing of a main character. For a while, I was getting a little bored with how this entire series was going, but after reading this I have renewed interest and am eager to start the next book in the series.

For some reason, I didn't expect these two stories to be as entertaining and engaging as the pervious stories. Yet, both did manage to bring a new light to the characters and worlds that have been touched on in DS9.
For the Ferenginar story, I actually enjoyed this a great deal. Perhaps what made it so good is that some outsiders involved provided a rather interesting look into the Ferengi culture. Having Ro Laren be a major character in this story was a great idea. Yeah, we got a look ... Read More

the first story talks about the world according to the ferengi. rom is now the grand nagus and has made sweeping changes, from income tax to giving women equal rights(something that was unheard of). most people seem to like the changes but some want to go back to the old ways including his brother quark. so a plot is hatched to shame him by bringing up dirt on his first marriage to nog's mother.
this story is well thought out and is quite funny. it gives the reader an inside look at the ... Read More
