First book in this two-parter really set the bar high, because this one did not even come close to meeting it. Talk about annoying, stubborn characters, refusal to properly communicate— all things that go against the thesis of Star Trek. I finished it just to get the conclusion (which came in the last 20 pages). Almost 700 pages to this story and it all gets wrapped up in 20 pages??? Gtfo.

4.5 stars.

This was a good book, a lot more fast paced than Daedalus and I was glad that Archer was more in it (he's my favourite)

A very satisfying conclusion to this epic space opera. Space princesses, evil alien warlords, savior heirs to the throne, jail breaks and harrowing space battles.

It was good to follow what much of the rest of the crew had experienced in this finale. I thoroughly enjoyed the series.

This was better than the first part of the story. It seems like the author got a little more comfortable with his characters - both the existing crew fromt he show and his own creations.
