Book Overview

Some say the line between good and evil is narrower than we imagine -- a divide as subtle as a mirror, and perhaps just as deep. To peer into its black, reflective glass is to know the dark potential we each possess, and we cross that obsidian boundary at our peril . . . into a world where we no longer recognize who we are or what we believed ourselves capable of.

In the late twenty-fourth century, decades after the fall of the once-mighty...

Mirror Universe - Officially Book Two

I thoroughly enjoyed reading both Obsidian Alliances and Shards and Shadows concurrently as one book tied into the other. These two books continue the tale of what happened to the Terran Empire and how The Alliance took over. Once I started reading, it was difficult to put it down as I wanted to see what was going to happen next!

FANTASTIC

This was better than the first in the Mirror Series. Partially because I love the DS9 and New Frontiers Characters but doubly so as I do not care for the Voyager crew and loved that story as well!

Mirror Universe / Obsidian Alliances

Nice job on the alternate universe books. A fast-paced read and very well done.

Wonderful!

I love this book. It is GREAT sequel (I have always wanted to see the mirror universe Kes). A lot of people are under the false impression that all of the characters in the mirror universe have to be complete opposites of those in our `normal' Trek universe. Wrong. That would be too simple. Some are completely different, and others are only minutely (example: in the mirror universe chapters of "Glass Empires", the Borg are still what they are in our universe, but there are a few differences - Borg King, diamond-shaped ship instead of a cube). I know that there is going to be confusion for some because of Peter David's "New Frontier" chapters, but if you are confused, go out and read the previous books of "NF". They are some of the best ever Trek-themed novels. As far as this timeline not following the "Dark passions" reality, no problem. As the TNG episode "Parallels" showed us, there are infinite realties out there. It is up to the reader to decide what they consider `canon' in their reality. Another thing that I liked about the books is the fact that (even the sadistic characters) have a reason for doing what they do (like with the traitor in the VOYAGER chapters - when you read why they did it, it almost makes you agree with them!). Also, the mirror universe, some counterparts are much more interesting than those in the regular Trek universe (example being that of the mirror universe Leeta. In the mirror universe, Leeta is not just a dumb Dabo girl, but a fighter and a very intelligent person). I really hope that we will see a sequel to these great books!

beter and better

book two of the mirror-universe saga connects star trek voyeger, new frontiers, and deep space nine. like book one (glass empires), it is an in-depth study of thr geat and small differences in the lives of beloved trek characters in a alternate universe.
