Complex and Interesting

Although "parallel universe" storylines can turn into a cheap copout from developing a plot within the normal universe, "Echoes" uses the ploy to its advantage. And since Voyager met a parallel universe in a critical episode on the television series, it fits within the book.

I enjoyed reading and seeing the subtle differences between the Voyagers -- although in the last half we hear and see and learn little of the planet they are trying to save. The climax occurs very late in the book, and the story ties up a little too tightly, but the characterizations make up for it.

An enjoyable read -- the titles under the chapters are also unique and inviting, helping readers keep track of which universe and which "shift." Definitely more reliable than the Stardate system. ;)

Absolutely haunting story!

This is one of the best stories in the Voyager series. The writers' descriptions of the action and reactions are very unsettling, and immediately draw you into the story. The only negative I found was that it was hard to keep track of which universe the writers currently had you in, but the story is absolutely engaging.

What got me into Star Trek Books

This book was the very first Star Trek book I had ever read. Being a big fan of the Voyager series and having to travel a lot for my company I decided to buy this book to read on the plane. This book was absolutely fantastic.

I like sci-fi that also adds some philosophical discussion or ideas to the story, and that is what this did. The idea of multiple dimensions and Janeway over a com-line with various versions of herself from those dimensions is quite intriguing to me. While this is by no means a new idea, I enjoyed the manner in which the story was told.

Since my reading this (in 2001) I've read numerous other Trek Books and this is still my favorite.

Very interesting!

Lots of stories about parallel universes. I was moved about people who had to go to die through time. They flooded space!! Lots of multiple Voyagers crews tried to work it out together. I liked short chapters and fast reads. A good read!! I couldn't put it down!


Star Trek Voyager: Echoes

I thought this book was really great. It kept you on the edge of your seat with the constantly changing time frame. You never knew where you would end up next. I would recommend this book to any Star Trek fan!
