Product Description:
They were created to be killing machines. Highly intelligent, resourceful, and deceptively complex, the Jem'Hadar are a species engineered for war and programmed at the genetic level for one purpose: to fight until death as soldiers of the sprawling stellar empire known as the Dominion. No Jem'Hadar has ever lived thirty years, and not even their masters, the shape-shifting Founders, know what such a creature is capable of becoming were it to be freed of its servitude.
One Founder, however, has dared to wonder.
Appointed by Odo himself to learn peaceful coexistence aboard Deep Space 9 ™, Taran'atar, an Honored Elder among the Jem'Hadar, had for months been a staunch, if conflicted, ally to the crew of the station, ever struggling to understand the mission on which he was sent . . . until something went horrifically wrong.
Consumed by self-doubt and an ever-growing rage, Taran'atar has lashed out against those he was sworn to aid. While Captain Kira Nerys and Lieutenant Ro Laren both lie near death aboard DS9, their assailant has taken a hostage and fled into Cardassian space, pursued by Commander Elias Vaughn on the U.S.S. Defiant. But as the hunt unfolds, Taran'atar's true objective becomes increasingly less certain, as the rogue Jem'Hadar leads the Defiant to a discovery even more shocking than his crime.

I throughly enjoyed following the suspenseful story of Taran'atar. It was a great follow up to the last book of the series but left out anything about Odo and the ramifications of what happened with the great link. There was excellent character development, Sisko makes an appearance in this story but doesn't play a strong role.
There are so many questions waiting to be answered after this. The hierarchy on Deep Space Nine may be changed dramatically forever because of what happened. ... Read More

The end and other scenes were confusing. An interesting plot line, but the story was a little disappointing and unclear details dragged, there was also more graphic content than needed.

I'm a huge fan of the DS9 relaunch, and I was eagerly anticipating this book as a continuation of the exciting storyline the various authors had established. However, after the great descriptions and plots of the previous books, especially the "Mission: Gamma" and "Worlds of DS9" series, I was very much disappointed by "Warpath". Like "Unity", the book does advance the plot, and provide some excellent action scenes, but not much else - it definitely does not share the depth and stand-alone nature of ... Read More

Mack definitely knows DS9 and the characters. The direction he took for new Jem'Hadar character is definitely refreshing. But, the story seems to have been written (or maybe edited) in a hurry to tie up loose ends, rather than tell a standalone story.
Rating: -
I've read all but three of the DS9 novels so far (12 total, I think) and I can say that without a doubt, this is by far the WORST novel I've read in the entire series. For those who ever tried to defend Trek novels as actually having literary merit, David Mack decided to make a shallow mockery of us.
Do you remember in third grade how teachers tried to tell you that you should use as many adjectives as possible in your stories? This guy took that lesson way too far. Every word must have ... Read More
