Another in a series of books looking at events on the Klingon side of the Star Trek universe. It continues to focus on the the officers and crewmen aboard a Klingon starship, and in government. Some of the characters have been on TV before, and a few are new, but all are interesting and unique and worthy of following. ( ) It's a dang-old shame that it's been over 2.5 years since there's been an installment in the I.K.S. Gorkon series, so I was pleased to see a new installment (even if the name has had to change). The Gorkon crew is on fine form-- Keith, as usual, does an excellent job of capturing characters, both ones from the TV show and new ones. This book is a little less fun than some of the previous Gorkon installments, as there's less of the whole "seeking out new life and new civilizations... and conquering them for the glory of the Klingon Empire!" shtick because the book is about the Gorkon crew's return home. I was also disappointed that we didn't get a sprawling epic a la The Art of the Impossible, which is what I had expected going in, but rather a number of essentially isolated subplots that didn't gel. Still, the chance to revisit Klag, B'Oraq, Rodek, Wol (probably my favorite), and all the rest will always be a good thing. Here's hoping to more of them. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
They have been the Federation's staunchest allies, and its fiercest adversaries. Cunning, ruthless, driven by an instinct for violence and defined by a complex code of honor, they must push ever outward in order to survive, defying the icy ravages of space with the fire of their hearts. They are the Klingons, and if you think you already know all there is to learn about them...think again. From its highest echelons of power to the shocking depths of its lowest castes, from its savagely aggressive military to its humble farmers, from political machinations of galactic import to personal demons and family strife, the Klingon Empire is revealed as never before when the captain and crew of the I.K.S. Gorkon finally return to their homeworld of Qo'noS in a sweeping tale of intrigue, love, betrayal, and honor. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
