Fearful Symmetry (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, #66)

Posted on by

In our universe, a Cardassian sleeper agent Iliana Ghemor was once surgically altered to resemble and replace resistance fighter Kira Nerys, future Starfleet captain and hero of the planet Bajor s liberation That plan never reached fruition, and the fate of the agent remained unknownuntil now.Robbed of the past sixteen years, Iliana Ghemor is back with a vengeance Over a decade and a half of imprisonment and abuse by her former masters has brought her to the brink of madness, sustained only by the twisted belief that she is, in fact, the real Kira Nerys She has already made one near successful attempt on the real Kira s life, but instead of assuming the identity of the woman she was intended to replace, Ghemor has set her sights on the most unexpected target of all Kira s other double, the malicious Intendent, Bajor s iron fisted ruler in the alternate reality commonly known as the Mirror Universe But far is unfolding in the Mirror Universe than Ghemor realizes, and the heroes of Deep Space Nine somehow must stop the false Kira without derailing the delicate flow of history that must unfold if both universes, and countless others, are to survive.Parallel stories set in both universes reflect and build upon each other in this Two in One Flip Book, the continuation of both the ongoing DS9 saga as well as the Mirror Universe line of books. Best Read [ Fearful Symmetry (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, #66) ] by [ Olivia Woods ] For Kindle ePUB or eBook – kino-fada.fr The second half of this book was really cool.While Fearful Symmetry is well written and great insight into the character of Ghemor, it doesn t advance the overall storyline a great deal The backstory is very much appreciated, but I found myself wanting the story to get under way Additionally, due to the fact that I have been spoiled by the very high quality of writing in the Deep Space Nine relaunch series so far, I felt that Fearful Symmetry was just a tiny bit lower on the scale than the previous books The gimmick of the flip book i While Fearful Symmetry...Olivia Woods made a great expansion of the episode Second Skin Iliana Ghemor feels like a classic Trek villain.Not too bad as Star Trek goes Can t say it was the greatest, but then again I only half liked the Deep Space Nine series anyhow Not for me Definitely not keeping it.Outstanding if dark I read it on Kindle so the flip book part did not come through like a physical book I really enjoyed this book though the second part started off a little dull, but by the end I was interested in that character.The latest in the DS9 relaunch series, Fearful Symmetry is essestially two books in one The first, titled side A follows directly on from the events of Warpath and generally centers around Kira Nerys The second, side b follows the tale of Illiana Ghemor, an agent of the Obsidian Order, first introduced in the DS9 series episode Second Skin The book follows her tale from her youth to her eventual recruitment by the Obsidian Order and later her assignment to replace Kira The book fills in The latest in the DS9 relaunch s...This continuation of the Deep Space Nine saga is as well written as most have been, but it is in something of an experimental format which I didn t feel worked particularly well It hearkens back to the old days of science fiction pulps, when a book would often be composed of two shortish novellas, back to back so that both front and back have their own cover art, and no matter which side of the book you held, you seemed to be looking at a front inside, one would read through to roughly t This continuation of the Deep Space Nine saga is as well written as most have been, but it is in something of an experimental format which I didn...Fearful Symmetry certainly isn t bad, but it isn t amazing either This is a two part book The first half focuses on the Kira we all know from the television series and how she is handling her life post attack The second part is from the perspective of Iliana, the one from the Prime side The portion that focuses on Kira is rather standard fare for the Deep Space Nine relaunch novels, but the Iliana section is somewhat different With Kira, the reader sees how she builds herself again afte Fearful Symmetry certainly isn t bad, but it isn t amazing either This is a two part book The first half focuses o...I love the post series Deep Space 9 books I always wondered what happened to Iliana Ghemor the Cardassian operative who was surgically altered to look like Major Kira The previous book revealed that she was the big villain behind the current story line, but this is the first time that you actually get to spend time with her and see what happened to her after the end of the Occupation Looks like it s off to the Mirror Universe for the resolution Those stories are always hit or miss We ll s I love the post serie...Two seperate stories One in the immediate aftermath of the attack on Kira, where Sisko gets a strange message from the prophets The second in the mirror universe, following a young cardassians life This fe...
