2.0 out of 5 stars Accurate, but not too interesting, May 3, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Prisoners of Peace (Star Trek Deep Space Nine) (Paperback)

It borrows and expands on the characterizations of Jake and Nog during A Man Alone, The Nagus and Storyteller, still making mischief and growing up, not quite to the point of jake becoming a writer or Nog wanting to join the Academy. Thus, it's an interesting, accurate look from a young adult's perspective at first season DS9 (both Jake and Nog are the youngest on the station, the only recurring kids and in Ms. O'Brien's class), but the suspense and adnveture aren't quite even up to Hardy Boys level. I'd recommend Starfleet Academy (TNG Young Adults) over this.
