lefthandedmatt's review against another edition

Go to review page

3.0

An omnibus of the SCE stories, books #50-#56.

Malefictorum: a decent mystery about the mysterious death of a crewmen.
Lost Time: a bit too weird and quite difficult to understand, but a nice little mix with some of the DS9 crew.
Identity Crisis: good fun and introduces the concept of spam and malware to the Star Trek universe!
Fables of the Prime Directive: kind of mediocre story about going undercover among a primitive culture, and not very interesting (at least until the final parts).
Security: a great story that delves into Corsi's past.
Wounds (Book 1 and Book 2): an interesting but messy story about Dr. Lense and Julian Bashir getting thrown into an alternate universe and barely surviving. It's gritty and grisly and ties into the DS9 relaunch, as well as hinting at the origin of the Borg. Often difficult to follow at times due to the overly technical writing, and the author really does like mentioning the smell of faeces a bit too often.
