When a troop of alien warriors demands the return of an imprisoned comrade - a prisoner no one on Deep Space Nine knows anything about - Commander Benjamin Sisko has a deadly fight on his hands. Under sudden attack from the heavily armed warriors, Sisko and his crew struggle desperately to repel the invaders and save the lives of everyone on board. Meanwhile, a strange device from the Gamma Quadrant has shifted Ferengi barkeeper Quark and Security Chief Odo three days into the future to a silent Deep Space Nine littered with the bodies of their fallen crewmates. To save the station they must discover what caused the invasion to take place - and find a pathway back through time itself.

I really enjoyed this book. A great reading by The Late Rene Ajounanquo. I hope that more books are made.

A Great Novel of Deep Space Nine!!

I got this audiobook since the late Rene Auberjonis passed away back in December of last year, I thought it would be nice to hear him reprise his role as “Odo”. I thought he did alright capturing “Quark” compared to the rest of the DS9 crew, but nonetheless still a good job. The story was “meh”.

It Was Okay

Felt like a good siege type episode. Worth another listen hope they make more of these little audio books.

I love this book because it's what Star Trek wasn't allowed to be in the '90s.

Dark.
Ruthless.
Lethal.

This is Star Trek where things go from bad to worse... and then even worse. DS9 is suddenly beseiged by an unknown Gamma Quadrant race and it's quickly proven that the Federation is outgunned. This isn't a Star Trek story in an idealized future with a neat last minute [sciene puzzle / diplomacy] twist ending. This is our favorite characters simply fighting for survival, and when I read this in '94, it blew my mind that this kind of story could be told in the Star Trek universe.

Thirty years later, when stories about Section 31 get their own action movies, it might not seem that crazy. But in it's day, it raised the bar on the possibilities of Star Trek story-telling.

Not your everyday Star Trek.

The story was one big catastrophe another so compelling, well narrated and the writing was okay but anyone who knows the series wouldnt feel all the characters ring true.

Gripping but unrealistic

Excellent use of classic sf withe the time streams and our show with the characters, especially Quark and Odo.

Excellent classic science fiction

Rene is of course wonderful, though some of his character voice choices were a bit odd.

The premise of the story was actually quite good, but winds up feeling like the author had a deadline to hit and rushed to complete it, giving it a somewhat incomplete feel. And I don't mean just the end, it is just like they went from outline to finished without putting in the details that could have taken it from good to great.

I'd recommend it for someone like me that is (was) craving anything DS9 to help fill in some story. You must already have a full and deep understanding of DS9 and these characters, otherwise, you will be left unsatisfied since you won't have the knowledge and understanding to fill in some of the gaps in the story.

Well performed with a slightly underwhelming story

A very enjoyable audiobook. I loved the reader and the story line was first rate star trek. There were many tense moments portrayed in this audiobook that enhanced the listening experience. Just a good time.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

No, it was extremetly dark, violent and morbid. It takes you in detail through the deaths of many of your favorite characters. It was like a Star Trek bad dream.

Would you ever listen to anything by Dafydd ab Hugh again?

No. I did not like the the wording and writing style were odd. The story itself was extremely negative and gruesome.

Have you listened to any of Rene Auberjonois’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, I haven't, but his performance was very enjoyable.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

No. It would definitely be rated R if it was made into a movie.

Any additional comments?

It was a very disappointing audiobook. This seems like a story that was killed by the censors for being too gory for the series, so they wrote a book instead.

Gory and Violent

This is one of my favorite Star Trek books of all time, in any of the series. The audiobook production heightens the excitement of the actual book. Even though I knew the story well, I couldn't stop listening. Rene Auberjonois gives a superb performance.

Yes, Yes! This is the one Deep Space Nine audiobook you should definitely buy!

Super!
