Reviews"I have found that good novels have a color one can associate with the tone of the story, and in the case of this book that color is Cardassian grey.... Good and evil are not cleanly divided between people in the book. Some of the Cardassians are good, and some of the Bajorans are bad, in other words."-- The-Trades.com, "I have found that good novels have a color one can associate with the tone of the story, and in the case of this book that color is Cardassian grey....

SynopsisBefore the Dominion War and the decimation of Cardassia...before the coming of the Emissary and the discovery of the wormhole...before space station Terok Nor became Deep Space 9(TM)...there was the Occupation: the military takeover of an alien planet and the violent insurgency that fought against it. Now that fifty-year tale of warring ideologies, terrorism, greed, secret intelligence, moral compromises, and embattled faiths is at last given its due in the three-book saga of "Star Trek's" Lost Era...A seemingly benign visitation to the bountiful world of Bajor from the resource-poor Cardassian Union is viewed with cautious optimism by some, trepidation by others, and a calculating gleam by unscrupulous opportunists. What begins as a gesture of compassion soon becomes something very different. Seen through the eyes of participants on both sides -- including those of a young officer named Skrain Dukat -- the personal, political, and religious tensions between the Bajorans and the Cardassians quickly spiral out of control, irrevocably shaping the futures of both worlds in an emotionally charged and unforgettable tale of treachery, tragedy, and hope., Before the Dominion War and the decimation of Cardassia...before the coming of the Emissary and the discovery of the wormhole...before space station Terok Nor became Deep Space 9(tm)...there was the Occupation: the military takeover of an alien planet and the violent insurgency that fought against it.

well written
if you are a star trek fan who has not yet watched the ds9 series, i would recommend reading this series before watching. if you have already seen ds9, then i would still recommend this book. the author doesn't have the most accessible writing style, but he is creative and paints a believable, compelling back story for the occupation of bajor.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
