A review by midwinter
Rise Like Lions by David Mack

3.0

The grand strategy put in place by Emperor Spock and implemented by the secret organization Memory Omega had an interesting resemblance to Asimov's Foundation series.

The pace of the novel is good, without any dull moments. The action keeps shifting from the Klingon Empire to the Cardassian Union, from the Badlands to the great beyond. And the cliffhanger is very intriguing and I am looking forward to seeing how the series will continue.

Nevertheless, after The Sorrows of Empire I must say I had my expectations for this book set higher and I felt a bit disappointed by it.
