Book Description
Political tensions on Bajor are once again on the rise, and the various factions may soon come to open conflict. In addition, a series of murders has shaken everyone on board the station. While Security Chief Odo investigates the murders, Commander Sisko finds himself butting up against a new religious faction that plans to take over Bajor and force the Federation to leave Deep Space Nine.
Odo soon traces the murders to a bizarre and dangerous form of holosuite technology--a technology that turns it's users into insane killers and now threatens Sisko's son, Jake. As the situation on Bajor deteriorates, Sisko learns that the political conflict and the new holosuites are connected. Both are the work of a single dangerous man with a plan that threatens the very fabric of reality.
The plot is darker than anything Sisko has faced before, and to defeat it, he must enter the heart of a twisted, evil world where danger lurks in every corner and death can come at any moment--from the evil within himself, from his closest friends, or even at the hands of his own son.

A little warped, but overall not bad,
By Tim Dowling (Owego, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Warped (Mass Market Paperback)
I don't understand why everyone keeps saying that this book is so bad. I picked it up, and couldn't put it down. Sure, it got a little overinvolved with some technological details at points, but it's not bad.The only reason I will give it only four stars is because the author made one slight mistake. As I am writing a book about Federation starships, the author used both the runabouts Mekong and Ganges. Well, during my research, I learned that the Mekong is the runabout that was assigned to Deep Space 9 after the Ganges was destroyed. Just a little annoyance with me that the author did not research the information first. Overall, a good pick. I highly recommend you pick it up to read.

Twisted?,
This review is from: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Warped (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is exactly what the cover says... warped. It takes a slightly twisted mind to think up something like this. But if you like scary books, then this is for you. Once I got used to the idea, it wasn't that bad.

An Average Star Trek Book,
This review is from: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Warped (Mass Market Paperback)
I've a lot of Trek books. Some were very good, some I've wondered how they got published, and some are average. This one is slightly above average. Usual Trek technobabble when characters are discussing the innerworking some gizmo, and some great interaction between favorite pairs of characters, here in the case Odo and Quark. But nothing new really new or exceptional (except for the idea of holosuites that shoot data straight into the user's brain), but on the other hand the characters didn't say or do anything that most Trek fans would find uncharacteristic. If you're a Trek fan, Warped is good way to spend an evening.
