Product Description:
The Shape of Things to Come
The cataclysmic events of Star Trek: Destiny have devastated known space. Worlds have fallen. Lives have been destroyed. And in the uneasy weeks that follow, the survivors of the holocaust continue to be tested to the limits of their endurance.
But strange and mysterious occurrences are destabilizing the galaxy's battle-weary Allies even further. In the Federation, efforts to replenish diminished resources and give succor to millions of evacuees are thwarted at every turn. On the borders of the battered Klingon Empire, the devious Kinshaya sense weakness -- and opportunity. In Romulan space, the already-fractured empire is dangerously close to civil war.
As events undermining the quadrant's attempts to heal itself become increasingly widespread, one man begins to understand what is truly unfolding. Sonek Pran -- teacher, diplomat, and sometime adviser to the Federation President -- perceives a pattern in the seeming randomness. And as each new piece of evidence falls into place, a disturbing picture encompassing half the galaxy begins to take shape...revealing a challenge to the Federation and its allies utterly unlike anything they have faced before.

I don't often write reviews, but had to on this one. I'm not a major Trekkie, but there are a few series I like to read, and this book follows in those. I've liked those other series, this book however is incredibly disappointing.
The book is incredibly disjointed trying to tell every single story that happens, with over 100 characters. That might be okay, if the stories told were interesting or well written... they are not. The author is horrible, can't paint a picture with words, ... Read More

Star Trek: A Singular Destiny takes place a few months after the cataclysmic events of the Star Trek: Destiny trilogy. Keith R. A. DeCandido sets up the story with seemingly unrelated events on distant worlds, then ties them all together through the travels of Professor Sonek Pran and Captain Dax's USS Aventine.
Sonek Pran is an intriguing character. He is of Vulcan, Betazoid, Bajoran, and Human descent and teaches history at a university on Mars. He's called up by Federation President ... Read More

As author DeCandido says in his acknowledgments, STAR TREK: A SINGULAR DESTINY is one of several Trek novels due in 2009 and 2010 that deal with the "big ol' mess" left by the STAR TREK: DESTINY trilogy. That mess includes tens of billions of dead people on dozens of Alpha Quadrant worlds, civilian economies and infrastructures in tatters, military forces depleted and overstretched, and political relationships in flux.
A SINGULAR DESTINY takes place in the immediate post-War period, when ... Read More

This is a very good Star Trek book. I like how it picks up event after the Borg attacks. And introduces a new threat to the Federation.

I started to read this book and was a little put off that there was no Picard, no Enterprise, no Riker, but as I continued I really stated to become engrossed in the Trek Universe as I had not seen it before. I began to like the Sonek Pran character, I could feel the despair and sadness that the characters felt from their tragic losses.
From the Mining Colony on Capella to the Zaldan incident to Donatra to the murder mystery I became more and more interested in the characters and in the Trek Universe ... Read More
