“Star Trek – The Next Generation : Tooth and Claw” by Doranna Durgin

An absolutely boring novel.

( Review of Tooth and Claw (spoiler) )

I seldom have seen a novel which was as predictable as this one and based on this it’s a good thing Doranna Durgin has written only one Star Trek novel.

“Star Trek : The Janus Gate, Book Two – Future Imperfect” by L.A. Graf

A decent continuation of the trilogy.

“Star Trek : The Janus Gate, Book Three – Past Prologue” by L.A. Graf

The last of the three Janus Gate Books holds the quality level of the previous two installations.

( Review of Past Prologue (spoiler) )

Overall an adequate conclusion for an O.K. trilogy, which had potential for more, but nonetheless offers some hours of entertainment.

“Star Trek – Titan : Taking Wing” by Andy Mangels & Michael A. Martin

A still good start for the Titan series.

( Review of Taking Wing (spoiler) )

Overall a decent novel, although it got the benefit of the doubt for being a pilot. If it hadn’t been the first novel of a new series the rating would have been a bit lower.
