Product Description:
Uneasy Peace. Worlds In Flux. Tests Of Faith.
The Final Episode Was Only The Beginning.
The Dominion War is over...or is it? Three months after the Allied victory against the invaders from the Gamma Quadrant, a surprise attack awakens the fear of renewed hostilities. At the same time, a senseless murder sets a space station commander on a path that will test the limits of her faith...while a strange discovery within the plasma storms of the Badlands propels an old soldier toward a rendezvous with destiny. Elsewhere, amidst the ruins of an ancient civilization, a young man is about to embark on a dangerous quest to fill the hole in his life -- one left by the loss of his father.
So begins the unprecedented, authorized continuation of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine®, springing from the seven-year television odyssey of Captain Benjamin Sisko and his crew aboard a Federation starbase at the edge of the final frontier. Following the serial format and evolving character arcs that were the hallmarks of the TV series, the new Deep Space Nine novels pick up where the show left off, daring to imagine what happened after the final episode.
Now the first five tales of that critically acclaimed storyline are collected in one massive volume. Originally published as the two-part Avatar, Abyss, Demons of Air and Darkness, and the novella "Horn and Ivory," Twist of Faith revisits the aftermath of the Dominion War, the pivotal planet Bajor, its mysterious connection to the timeless Prophets of the wormhole, as well as the familiar faces, new friends, and uncertain allies whose fates intertwine at the crossroads of the galaxy. With an introduction by New York Times bestselling author David R. George III (Mission: Gamma -- Twilight; The Lost Era: Serpents Among the Ruins; the Crucible trilogy), Twist of Faith takes the Deep Space Nine saga to a new level...exploring what was left behind, and what awaits beyond.

I received this book about a week before Christmas and finished reading it Christmas night. I was curious about the possibilities of what happened to the characters of DS9 after Season 7 concluded and this book appeared to pick up where the TV series left off. I enjoyed this book so much that I had difficulty putting it down. To avoid spoiling it for anyone else, I found that the book ended on a cliff-hanger and I'm now faced with the challenge of locating the book that picks up where "Twist of ... Read More

I was very disappointed to discover this book did not contain the entire story of Sisko's return. "Avatar" set the scene very well, but who thought it was a good idea to include "Abyss" and the others? I didn't realize when I picked this up that "Rising Son" and "Unity" were the next two books in the series. Why not include them instead, especially since "Rising Son" is out of print? A rip off for fans looking for a complete story.

This is an excellent, engaging read if you are a Deep Space Nine fan. I read this soon after watching all of the DS9 seasons on DVD, and found it a seamless transition to written fiction for someone who wanted more. All the familiar faces are there, and if you've watches ST: The Next Generation, you'll appreciate the crossover addition of an old character from that series as well.
The only negative I can think of is that the continuation of the story arc regarding Jake is difficult ... Read More

In the years following the finale of Deep Space Nine, I have often lamented the fact that Star Trek did not continue the series via feature films. DS9 was easily my favorite Trek series, and the finale, while it wrapped up everything quite well, clearly left open the possibility of further stories.
It is with great admiration for the authors of these "post-finale," aka "relaunch" novels, that I say these books have relieved me of my post-finale sadness. The authors of these stories clearly ... Read More

This collection of stories is the direct continuation of the storyline of the series. Starting 3 months after the events of the show, these stories don't miss a beat.
My favorite thing about these books, is how well they capture the characters. The perspective of the stories is ever-shifting, jumping from character to character. Many of these characters are well established from the Star Trek televion shows. They are very well represented, and very true to what you know about each of them. ... Read More
