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.
Yay! I enjoyed it myself despite never having watched TNG, and it holds together as a novel entirely in its own right I think, but reading a review like that does reinforce the awareness I had even as I read it that I must be missing lots of layers.
It is so satisfying as a writer (published or not) when a reader just completely *gets* something you wrote, isn't it?
Ditto from me, except I've seen TNG and know only the very basics of DS9. I've said it elsewhere that it made me go and start watching DS9 from the beginning (except I've got waylaid by other stuff and still haven't finished S1). Once I've finished DS9 I'll go back and read both Una's DS9 novels and assume they'll be even better!
S1 of DS9 is a bit dreary, to be honest. I'd watch the pilot and the one with Garak ('Past Prologue'), then skip to the end of the season and watch 'Duet'. and the finale. Then move on to season 2. You definitely need to have seen through to S6 to enjoy Hollow Men!
