2.0 out of 5 stars
hardly lives up to its namesake,
By Kevin D. Flythe (Greenville, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ragnarok (Star Trek Voyager, No 3) (Paperback)
This Voyager novel was a great disappointment. After having enjoyed Nathan Archer's DS9 novel (#10, Valhalla), I was expecting a rather rousing romp. However, what I received was anything but. The idea of an ages long war in space is really exciting, and although it initially sounded like a flashy hook to sell people on the novel, I hoped that Archer could surprise me by adding a little meat to it. Well, unfortunately, that was not the case. There's really not much to this book at all. I give it two stars rather than one because Archer did at least write with his characteristically entertaining style. Too bad it wasn't enough to save the mediocrity of the plot. It was, at the time I read it, somewhat more satisfying because it was something you knew the budget of the show would never allow. However, what with the media's recent love affair with CGI, anyone who has seen 6th and 7th season episodes of DS9 know that even a battle such as the one described in this novel is no longer an impossibility. Of course, as you know the special effects will never live up to the theatre of the mind. If you're a Voyager fan and a collector, you should probably buy this (and even read it if you want to), but it's real purpose in my library is to fill in what would otherwise be an ugly gap between the numbers 2 and 4 in my Voyager series.

2.0 out of 5 stars
I've read better!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ragnarok (Star Trek Voyager, No 3) (Paperback)
I'm a big fan of Voyager and the Voyager novels, but this book really went NO WHERE! The crew flew around in a war for a while and then people got stuck in a shuttle craft. Same old stuff. The only memorable part was the description of the aliens at the end. My advice is to skip this one and read "Marroned"!

4.0 out of 5 stars
One of the better recent Star Trek based novels.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ragnarok (Star Trek Voyager, No 3) (Paperback)
This novel had a certain freshness to it that reinvigorated a seasoned Star Trek novel reader. I don't know if it was because it was a fresh new story about the latest edition to the world of Star Trek television, or if it was the story itself.
Read the synopsis, then get the book, it is worth the price.
