Book post: Terok Nor: Dawn of the Eagles by S.D. Perry
Title: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Terok Nor: Dawn of the Eagles
Author: S.D. Perry
Number of pages: 448
Genre: sci-fi
Book Number/Goal: 10/50
My Rating: 4/5
Review: This is the final book in Terok Nor trilogy. It takes place during the last years of the occupation of Bajor. In comparison to the previous book (Night of the Wolves), the action picks up, there's more tension and dread, and also more familiar characters and canon scenes, which makes it more interesting and relevant.
Special notice goes to the portrayal of Dr. Crell Moset and to the unexpected development of the character of Kalisi Reyar (a Cardassian scientist introduced in the previous book).
----
"Horrible," Kalisi said, unable to help herself.
"This one stayed unconscious, at least," Crell said, with no emotion save for the affable tint that usually colored his voice. "Your reaction strikes me as slightly hypocritical, darling. You've devoted your entire adult life to designing weapons that target and kill them."
Kalisi stared at him. "Since my detection grid was installed, combat deaths of both Bajorans and Cardassians have been reduced exponentially. My work has prevented unnecessary suffering."
Her lover nodded. "As will mine," he said evenly. After a moment, he leaned in and resumed cutting, and Kalisi left him.
----
It was not extremely exciting, and some parts were still boring, but overall I've rather enjoyed it!
