About this ebook
An original novel set in the universe of Star Trek: Voyager—and the sequel to the New York Times bestseller Protectors!
Admiral Kathryn Janeway has now taken command of the Full Circle Fleet. Her first mission: return to the Delta Quadrant and open diplomatic relations with the Confederacy of the Worlds of the First Quadrant, a civilization whose power rivals that of the Federation. Captain Chakotay knows that his choices could derail the potential alliance. While grateful to the Confederacy Interstellar Fleet for rescuing the Federation starships from an alien armada, Voyager’s captain cannot forget the horrors upon which the Confederacy was founded.
More troubling, it appears that several of Voyager’s old adversaries have formed a separate and unlikely pact that is determined to bring down the Confederacy at all costs. Sins of the past haunt the crew members of the Full Circle Fleet as they attempt to chart a course for the future. Will they learn much too late that some sins can never be forgiven…or forgotten?

Being a Voyager fan this had me excited, but the prose was so wooden and the exposition so exposed it could be a dead end hipster New Industrial bar. Also the dialogue had me cringing, especially with the characters we know & love from TV. Now to delete it from my library.

A painfully bad book. Kirsten Beyer pens another wandering, nigh-plotless mess to further her goal of one-upping Paramount itself for mistreatment of the Star Trek: Voyager cast. The one remotely positive thing I can say for this wearying tome is the author faithfully replicated Janeway's borderline schizophrenic, massively self-destructive behavior from the TV series... the same behavior that prompted Kate Mulgrew to publicly speculate Janeway was mentally ill.

Kirsten Beyer is now my favourite author. A wonderfully colourful read which gives much food for thought with regard to our own societies past, present and future. My only negative is that in every book I have noticed ' between 2-4 typing errors......Of course no one is perfect - proof readers are letting her down ! In my view however the books in this anthology are brilliant!
