[Buecher] Losing the Peace (Spoiler)
.
============
Dies ist meine Besprechung von Losing the Peace, dem neuesten TNG Buch
von William Leisner. Viel kann ich nicht dazu sagen, daher ist meine
Besprechung diesmal kurz:
S P O I L E R
It took me quite a while to develop more interest in the book. A lot of
the early scenes about people coming to terms what happened during the
Borg story made me sympathize with what the Federation and individual
characters are going through but most of it had been mentioned in other
books or it wasn`t difficult to guess.
The only character who added some surprises was Chen. Without her
refreshing presence a lot of this book would have been pretty
uninteresting to me. I liked her conversations with her father and I am
curious how this relationship will develop in future. What I mainly
enjoyed in this book is that Picard spontaneously followed her
passionate advice and decided to take the Alpha Centauri representatives
with him so that they can experience the ugly reality for themselves.
Fortunately it had the desired effect and I was amused that the top
people wanted to promote Picard this time instead of punishing him. I
laughed when Picard quoted Admiral Kirk to Akaar.
It isn`t a bad book but I am hoping that I find the next TNG book more
interesting.
