A Stitch in Time (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, #27) door Andrew Jordt Robinson
As the actor who played Garak on DS9, I had no doubt that Andrew Robinson would have deep insight into the character. But what I wasn't sure about was how good a writer he would be. I'm pleased to report, he is quite good. Granted, the book will only appeal to those who are fans of the show. But for those who are, I encourage you to pick this one up.
If you aren't a big Star Trek fan or already familiar with DS9, then this is not a great choice. But if you've watched DS9 and wanted to know more about Garak, this is a very well done and detailed dive into Garak's pre and post-DS9 life. The audiobook is also read by the man himself and he does an excellent job.
This book just blew me away. Robinson, knowing his character so well, gives us both a compelling story and a penetrating character sketch. And he's a great writer to boot. If you have even the slightest interested in DS9, this is a must read.
You don't expect actors to write with such delightful nuance and nerdiness at the same time.
