The Final Reflection by John M. Ford
4.0
A very clever story. I must admit I didn't like the first chapter. I found the second chapter better but I still wasn't captured by the story. However by the third chapter I was enjoying the story and it just got better with every chapter thereafter.
The plot is creative and the exploration of Klingon-lore is great. You have to read it with the date of publication in mind, you can see by the cover how early this story was written and you'll need to expect that many Klingon concepts were either newly formed ideas or not even written into canon yet.
With that in mind. The Klingons in this story are great. They remind very much of TOS era Klingons and the author nails the characters very well. The plot is engaging and there's as much action as there is philosophical reelection in this one.
