Chuffed to bits with this review of The Never-Ending Sacrifice. For many reasons, but it's particularly nice to hear it described as "a good science fiction novel". Because we try very hard.
That's great! Congratulations. I'm glad you give the Cardassians a bit of a break, I found the Bajorans pretty effing tedious with their maquis and their earrings and endless civil wars.
My favourite Star Trek conversation is as follows:
FERENGI COMMANDER (to Worf): We have a meeting.v Go and get the chairs! PICARD: (affronted) Mr Worf is my senior security officer. FERENGI COMMANDER: Well, who gets the chairs?
They never bloody well answered that question either. I think it's the one great flaw of TNG. Everyone was so enlightened and post colonial and post gender and race etc. but SOMEBODY has to get the chairs. The Ferengi commander was spot-on.
