Travel to two of the most colorful and fascinating civilizations in the Star Trek universe with this collection of two sweeping and reflective novellas that transport us to the alien planets of Ferenginar and the Dominion. In Ferenginar, Quark's profit-driven home planet is rocked by a shocking scandal when allegations that Quark's brother's first wife has threatened to overthrow the Grand Nagus of the Ferengi Alliance, Rom. To make matters worse, Quark has been recruited by Rom's political adversaries to join their coup d'état, with promises that all of Quark's wildest dreams will come true if he helps. Quark must decide if the future of Ferenginar is worth his greatest desires or if he is strong enough to save it himself. In The Dominion, the Great Link--the living totality of the shape-shifting Founders--has struggled with questions ever since its defeat in the war for the Alpha Quadrant. At its greatest moment of intense doubt, its fate, and that of the Dominion itself, is tied to Odo's investigation of his kind's true motives for sending a hundred infant changelings out into the galaxy. As Odo searches for answers and takes a hard look at his past choices, Taran'atar reaches a turning point in his own quest for clarity--one from which there may be no going back.

Unlike the others in the series the less good story is not horrible. George is getting better, but he went from one extreme to the other. The last "re-launch" title he wrote had like 90 chapters in it, this one has only 7. The story focuses mostly off site at the new "changeling home-world" The descriptions of the changeling lifestyle outside of being as a solid leave something to be imagined, and that imagination didn't do well for me. Also some of the ideas don't seem quite in line with what we know of the the Changelings from T.V. such as the founders having belief in their own god. Also the secondary story, focuses back in the alpha quadrant and mostly on the station is were the real interest is, certainly they are setting us up for a T'arnatar focused story to come, one that the relaunch serious desperately needs. Also at least twice we are lead to believe that one of beloved characters dies, do they? Well I won't let that out, and I'm not sure if George does either. This story probably deserves a 3 on its own, leading the book to a 4 star. ( )
