I enjoyed this book as Uhura and Chekov are the main characters. Taking place early in Chekov's assignment to Enterprise, it conveys Chekov's feeling of someone just out of the academy, the FNG serving aboard the already near-legendary Enterprise.
Uhura is the other main character focus, and as in Uhura's Song, she carries the story well. It is great to read books that give a different view of the characters we all know, expanding their lives and interactions.

The authors did a great job on this tale! The main characters were all written very well (it was easy for me to "see" them acting and "hear" their voices), and most of the lesser characters worked too. The plot flowed nicely, without spots to slow down the story, and the science was not too outrageous (for the Star Trek universe) or too complicated to follow. I was involved with several of the relationships that were developing among some of the characters. All in all, this was a very good book I will read again someday.
