George III See The Fall: Revelation and Dust. Book George III! On the original Deep Space Nine, Captain Kira Nerys watches as the nearby wormhole opens and discharges a single, bladelike vessel. Attempts to contact its crew fail, and the ship is soon followed by another vessel of similar design. When an armada subsequently begins to emerge from the wormhole, it seems clear that DS9 is under attack. Kira orders her The Fall: Revelation and Dust officer, Commander Elias Vaughn, to board the U. Meanwhile, on the lead ship, Iliana Ghemor considers launching an attack on DS9 and finally ending the life of Kira, the fountainhead of all the ills in her miserable life. Her vengeance demands more than mere death, though—it requires pain. All Rights Reserved. The 34th Rule. is even looking forward to making the deal of a lifetime -- when he suddenly finds himself stuck right in the middle of a major dispute between Bajor and the Ferengi Alliance. It seems that the Grand Nagus is refusing to sell one of the lost Orbs of the Prophets to the Bajoran government, which has responded by banning all Ferengi activity in Bajoran space. With diplomatic relations between the two cultures rapidly breaking down, Quark loses his bar first, then his freedom. But even penniless, he still has his cunning and his lobes, and those alone may be all he needs to come out on top -- and prevent an interstellar war! Reviews Review Policy. Published on.

This is the The Fall: Revelation and Dust novel of a 5-part event of Star Trek titled "The Fall". Pocket Books plans to publish each book, one per month in the extent of 5 months. Each novel will cover the accountings of a week time story. So far, The Fall: Revelation and Dust first novel used the characters of DS9 and already know due news that the second novel will focus on TNG characters. I guess that in the third novel, the characters of both Trek spin-offs will reunite but it isn't sure to tell yet. The story is set onthat implies that it's set 10 years later of the series finale of DS9 and 6 years later of "Nemesis", the last TNG's theater film. I still have to read most of the "Relaunch" novels, however I've been keeping updated about the highlights of what was happening in the expanded universe of Star Trek. Due that, I don't see any reason to wait to read this book that I was really eager to devour. As you can surmise for my 3- star rating, in my personal opinion, the novel wasn't as good as I expected. I won't spoil any key element in the story, so if you decide to read it, can enjoy the story as best as possible. I just going The Fall: Revelation and Dust comment some of my reasons for a barely fair rating to this book. Okay, this is just the first novel in a 5-part event, I got that, however, I expected that some kind of inner arc could be developed here AND having a sense of conclussion. But it doesn't happen that here. The book is focused in the inauguration of the brand new Deep Space Nine station, Frontier-class. Something big happened in the protocolary ceremony, and it's evidently that this will cause repercussions and it will be the trigger of the whole 5- part book event. However, in this novel, notwithstanding that the author gave a lot of explanation of the mystery around the "big thing", you still miss a fair conclussion. I know, it's a 5-part event, yes, yes, but dang it, you don't feel that you read a novel, but just a part of a book, and not matter you are reading a "series" of any book saga, it's expectable that you get a sense of conclussion of the particular book that you are reading, even if you still have some doubts that you hope to be resolved in the following volumes. The Fall: Revelation and Dust, the story, besides the "the big thing", basically you don't have any climax or action here. While it's interesting to see the return of the old bunch The Fall: Revelation and Dust DS9 on their current positions, you don't get anymore than that. The book is highly political, that I think it was a good thing, but a little of action could be appreciated. Also, there is a side-story along the whole novel, that I'm sure it will get The Fall: Revelation and Dust in the following books, but here? Here, was confusing, boring and felt like a cheap way to make thicker the first book to validate its status of a novel and not just a novella or short story. Another thing that buggers me is that "the big thing" is certainly something that can The Fall: Revelation and Dust the career of Ro Laren, the station commander, but you don't see or feel that she would get any reprimand or getting into messy waters due "the big thing" that it can easily The Fall: Revelation and Dust as a failure in the security measures for the inauguration of the new DS9. I love Ro Laren, she's one of my favorite characters since she appeared on TNG and certainly I don't to see her career ruined, however it's very odd not seeing some hot shot on Starfleet Command shouting and demanding the head of her in a plate. And when I was thinking The Fall: Revelation and Dust, it was strange that during the inauguration ceremony, the highest ranking officer was Captain Sisko. Not even a single dang admiral could make the time to go the ceremony of the new DS9? It's really quite strange. The author manages quite well little details about the operations of computer systems in the starbase, I have to give him that. Certainly, not matter that while it was just a barely enjoyable experience The Fall: Revelation and Dust this first novel, I will buy the other books of the event. View 1 comment. I'd been looking forward to this book all summer: the launch of a new DS9-centered multivolume story is about as exciting as it gets. Unfortunately, this book got tossed on the return pile pages in. Nothing happens. Literally the entire first pp amounts to, the Cardassian head of state is called home to deal with an uprising in advance The Fall: Revelation and Dust a summit meeting, and the Federation President wants to speak to for reasons unknown. The rest is an exercise in needless backstory, appalling repet I'd been looking forward to this book all summer: the launch of a new DS9-centered multivolume story is about as exciting as it gets. The rest is an exercise in needless backstory, appalling repetition. One chapter is basically "Sisko was thinking about the old days during dinner with Kassidy. Sisko: "Hey, Kassidy, I was thinking about the old days. Kassidy: Oh, the old days! You were thinking of them! It's ghastly. I may try the next volume, from a different author, when it comes out: I imagine a competent writer could sum up the pp or so of this book in a page, maybe two. And I'll have several hours of my life back to watch paint dry or clean the bathroom, both less tedious than this disappointing crap. View all 3 comments. Jul 18, Brian rated it did not The Fall: Revelation and Dust it. If I could vote for something worse than 1-star, I would do it. A horrible waste of time and dead trees. If this was an episode of a Trek television show, it would have been a "clip show". You know, the ones that recycle footage from previous episodes to make up the majority of the content. Often this comes in the form of flashbacks, "remember when". Usually this is to save on a The Fall: Revelation and Dust production budget. Wonder what the excuse was for this novel. Well, that's what most of this book was. Remember If I could The Fall: Revelation and Dust for something worse than 1-star, I would do it. Remember when. If you cut out all of the The Fall: Revelation and Dust, you'd be left with a short story about some , an assassination, and a description of the new DS9 starbase. In fact, if you were to compare this to a 1-hour television show, the first 50 minutes would have been "Previously on Star Trek: Boring," with the final 10 minutes setting up a cliff-hanger. It wouldn't be good TV, and it's not good reading. Look, I understand that there's a lot of backstory for the characters and events in this universe. But devoting that much space to it is ridiculous. I don't want to pay for stories I've already seen, or paid for and read in the past! I don't need a play-by-play of Sisko's first encounter with the Prophets, with commentary by Kira. I don't need to read through Sisko and Yates playing "remember when" about their marriage. The Fall: Revelation and Dust want a new story! That's why I bought a The Fall: Revelation and Dust book! If I wanted this retread, I'd have gone back to read the other books. ​The Fall: Revelation and Dust on Apple Books

I love the parts of this story that focus on the new DS9 and bringing a lot of the familiar characters back together. I also want to see Kira return. Otherwise, I would've given 5 stars. I'm sure the overall story arc will be well worth the time invested in reading. The book spends a lot of time going over what had lead up to this book. The Fall: Revelation and Dust I had missed the Typhon Pact books it The Fall: Revelation and Dust really helpful. But for someone who had read the Typhon Pact books I The Fall: Revelation and Dust all the review could have been annoying. I wanted to like this a whole lt more than I did. Certainly it is well-written and old favourite characters are brought back but so are new ones that, to be honest, I don't care so much for. It dwelled a lot on the re-opening ceremony of the new DS9 and the memorial service for those who died in the destruction of the old,as well as what happened to Major Kira in the wormhole The Fall: Revelation and Dust it collapsed. All important and interesting to see the characters coping with their losses and reminders of the past, but it did seem to drag. When the assassination happened it was a bit of a surprise simply because I was lulled into the meanderings of the rest of the novel, but even that was apparently tied up quickly and then it was back to the old crew meeting up again. Some of which seemed to be only there to see their name mentioned. Now obviously there are going to be more books following so these characters will be brought back and expanded, and this book was good enough that I'll likely read the next in the series. But if I wasn't already interested in the worldframe from watching the series I don't know if I would have stuck with it. I'm hoping that the next book will redeem any misgivings I had with this one. If you're a fan it's worth a read. I found it to be slow moving. When the action commenced it was sporadic. I liked the character embellishments. I finally got a chance to know what happened to main characters from the past, but I expected more action. Here at Walmart.
