About this ebook
An all-new novel that continues the epic saga of the Starship Voyager!
As the Voyager fleet continues its exploration of the Delta Quadrant, investigating the current status of sectors formerly controlled by the Borg becomes a key priority. Two of the fleet’s special mission vessels, the U.S.S. Galen and U.S.S. Demeter, are left at New Talax to aid Neelix’s people, while the Voyager, Quirinal, Esquiline, Hawking, and Curie do a systematic search for any remnants of the Borg or Caeliar, even as the Achilles moves to a location central enough to offer aid to the exploring vessels as needed. As this critical mission begins, Fleet Commander Afsarah Eden, who has shared what little she knows of her mysterious past with Captain Chakotay, begins to experience several more “awakenings” as she encounters artifacts and places that make her feel connected to her long-lost home. She is reluctant to allow these visions to overshadow the mission, and this becomes increasingly difficult as time passes. But in the midst of this growing crisis, no one in the fleet could anticipate the unexpected return of one of Starfleet’s most revered leaders—a return that could hold the very fate of the galaxy in the balance.

Say it with me now, Q Continuum stories are ALWAYS a bad idea because any power that can menace an all-powerful, all-knowing race of super beings renders the actions of the mortal crew irrelevant and requires apocalyptic levels of threat.

I loved so many parts of this book...but the Q thing gets so out there and confusing (probably why there's a warning about it in the beginning)...Everything turns out exactly how I wanted which was a little predictable but it still kept my attention. Overall not the easiest read even for a Trekkie but satisfying in the end.

Kirsten Beyer - Thank you ! This was an amazing read, perhaps your best yet in my opinion. Your efforts are deeply appreciated, just wow! Fantastic rollercoaster twists and turns with a wonderful 'ending'.
