The Final Nexus (Star Trek, No 43) [Paperback]

Gene DeWeese (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 1, 1988

Uncounted centuries ago, an unknown race from beyond our galaxy built a series of interstellar gates -- shortcuts through the cosmos -- and then disappeared, leaving no clues to their identity nor to the workings of their system. The EnterpriseTM herself has used the gates twice before, without gaining any insight into the mystery. But now the secret of the gates must be solved, because they are disintegrating, cutting distant parts of the galaxy off from each other, and the Enterprise's only hope lies in communicating with creatures from another universe altogether.

5.0 out of 5 stars A sequel to #32, "Chain of Attack"., January 18, 2003

This review is from: FINAL NEXUS (STAR TREK #43) (Mass Market Paperback)

"Chain of Attack" stands well on its own, and it is not necessary to read this book to "complete" the story told there. This book, on the other hand, would make significantly less sense if one had not previously read "Chain of Attack". Less, but not none; it is possible to read this book without that one, and simply to assume that the backstory is one that hasn't been told. This story can, in fact, stand on its own.

Which is good, because it's an extremely good story; the regular characters are handled well, a couple of new characters that are added for spice are interesting and worthwhile, and the story itself is a fast-moving, well-paced story that is very well written. It's one of the best "Enterprise saves the universe as we know it" stories that I've ever read; it actually manages to be almost plausible.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sequel to Chain of Attack, November 30, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Final Nexus (Star Trek, No 43) (Paperback)

Sequels in the Star Trek universe have become more popular since the success of the movies.

Thus, this novel was written as a sequel to the moderately successful Chain of Attack (#32).

If you liked Chain of Attack, then read this one.
