Great addition to the Retrivial Artist Universe
Let me start by saying that I admit to being slightly biased with the number of stars as this series is my current favorite of all the books I read. That said I thought Paloma was the best book in the series since Extremes (my personal favorite). This book was a good tie-in to the first book of the series, whereas the last three could be read as stand alones. I recommend re-reading the first ...

Surprisingly good for the first in the series
You could criticize this book for its sometimes bland or inaccurate characterizations of the crew, but if you're a veteran reader of Trek books you won't, since you'll know to expect that in the early books of any of the series. As I see it, the only flaw worth taking off rating-points for is that too much time is devoted to the story's secondary plot, which centers on a role-playing game, and ...

Thriller with more than a touch of humanity
This is the prequel to Rusch's 2000 story, "The Retrieval Artist." As that was and is one of my favorite novellas of all time, I was eagerly anticipating this book. I was not disappointed in the least. Miles Flint is a first-year detective on the Moon Sector Police, with his tough experienced partner, Noelle DeRicci. Both are smart and somewhat on the fringe of the agency, and thus tend to pick ...

I loved this Book..........
I've always love BTVS because of the Mythology of the Slayer line and how she's Chosen and all of that, I also love the characters and how they're written so well.....But i've often wondered about Past Slayers, what they were like, and what their life was like because as we've always known, Buffy is just one of many Slayers throughout the Years. I loved this Book and how it told about Different ...

Without a doubt, one of the best of the expanded universe!!!
I was quite impressed with this one. The ones that came before it in the timeline particuarly darksaber were a bit disappointing and seemed rather dry. Dont get me wrong though, I really did enjoy those just for the fun of it. However, this one was an extremely pleasant surprise. It had the feel of a great mystery and a who dunnit kind of tale. I was constantly wondering what came next to ...

Suitable for both critics and fans, full of humor and enthusiasm
Intellectually, the Prosecution wins the case with flying colors. Emotionally though, the Defense makes some very good points. The book is written with humor and enthusiasm, all contributors from both sides are obviously having fun and it should be noted that everybody acknowledges the fun and entertainment value of Star Wars and its ability to make us dream. Including David Brin who gives ...

Incredible good.
This serie is getting better and better. What a twists and plotchangings. I'm really sorry for the Islanders in their struggle for survive. But I'm also intrigued by the Fey, despite their cruel warbehavior. One of the best series I've ever read.

Great series
I will admit that I am a voracious, but picky reader. I like a lot of books, but seldom love them. However, this is a series that I do love. It is not all 'Hollywood endings' and stalwart, dashing heros. The Fey world is well developed and the characters are very interesting. I don't think it is a great idea to pick this book up without having read the previous ones. Although it can ...

Excellent writing, excellent story.
Particularly given that this story was written very early in the run of the "Voyager" series, making characterization that will ring true to those who've followed the series much longer difficult, and that it involves time-travel, a very difficult concept to do well, it is amazing how well-written this story is. The characterizations feel spot-on, (except for the fact that the EMH is consistently ...

First encountered in the twenty third century by the Klingons, the Furies sent a vanguard in the form of a nearly indestructible starship where it was met by the venerable Captain James T.
