Return to the edge of the final frontier. As the Federation prepares to launch a counterstrike against the Dominion, Colonel Kira Nerys searches for a way to prevent another galactic holocaust. But when a newly discovered prophecy propels Jake Sisko on an impossible quest and threatens to plunge all of Bajor into chaos, Kira is forced to choose between being true to her faith…and being true to herself. Meanwhile, as the combined crews of Deep Space 9 and the starship Enterprise struggle to stop a terrorist plot to destroy the station and the ship, lives change, new friendships are forged, and the shocking truth behind a grisly murder is revealed. The astonishing renewal of the epic adventure.

i dunno, it's fun

(Review of both this book and the one that precedes it in the series)

This is a plausible, fun and engaging continuation of the DS9 story and I had a lot of fun with it! In particular, the author's interpretation of Kira's subjectivity and point of view feels "right," and although the appearance of Ro seems like a gimmick at first, her presence in the story ends up catalyzing rich character development on Kira's part. (Plus, Quark's crush on Ro is really funny.) I'm not big on Star Trek novels but this one was worthwhile.
