Product Description

Product Description

Centuries ago, the Supreme Ruler of the planet Jibet fled a democratic uprising, taking with him many priceless works of art. Now Quark's greed leads Commander Sisko and his crew to the lost treasures -- and to the Supreme Ruler himself, preserved in cryogenic suspension.

The discovery sparks unrest on Jibet, and launches an alien armada against Deep Space Nine ™. As Dr. Bashir struggles to keep the dying ruler alive, Jake and Nog uncover deadly evidence of lingering Cardassian treachery. Now, Sisko must somehow keep the mysteries of the past from destroying all hope for DS9's future.



Ingram

Centuries after the greedy ruler of Jibet squirrels away many priceless works of art, Quark discovers the location of the lost art as well as the cryogenically preserved body of the Supreme Ruler, with dangerous results.

5.0 out of 5 stars DS9 #14 The Long Night - A very well written novel!, Nov 30 2003
By K. Wyatt "ssintrepid" (St. Louis, MO United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Over the years, the husband and wife writing team of Dean Wesley Smith and Kristine Kathryn Rusch have turned out some of the best, most intriguing and enlightening Star Trek tales in the genre and "The Long Night" is no exception to that proven track record. As is standard with their novels, the plot set up and execution is perfect and the pacing of the novel is fast.

The cover art for "The Long Night" is somewhat standard for the time in which the novel is published, leaving much to be desired.

The premise:

Centuries ago, the Supreme Ruler of Jibet fled a democratic uprising taking with him many priceless works of art. Quark, being the good Ferengi that he is, hears of the whereabouts of this treasure and ends up leading Sisko and crew to not only the treasure but the Supreme Ruler himself, in cryogenic suspension. This discovery keenly sparks the interests of Jibet itself and they send a fleet to Deep Space Nine. Dr. Bashir struggles to keep the ruler alive and Jake and Nog discover even deadlier evidence of Cardassian involvement.

What follows from there is one of the best Trek novels written by these authors and most certainly one of the best numbered Deep Space Nine novels to date that I highly recommend to any and all fans of Star Trek fiction. {ssintrepid}

2.0 out of 5 stars Not memorable, Mar 11 2003
By Omni (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This book occurred a couple of years into the series so the characters were still being fleshed out so the focus was more on finding new missions to write about. While everything was traced back to Cardassian involvement showing the same narrow focus that the first few seasons did. Also the books needed to get broader in scope and characterization. This book was a slow start and the only part that was true to the series was the Quark and Odo conflict.

4.0 out of 5 stars ST:DS-9 The Long Night, Feb 16 2003
By Joe Zika "Khemprof" (Cincinnati, Ohio) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Star Trek: Deep Space 9 The Long Night written by Dean Wesley Smith and Kristine Kathryn Rusch is and advenure-mystery book as Commander Benjamin Sisko and his crew try to reign in Quarks greed.

Yes, Quark the large eared Ferengi has found out about a large sum of priceless works of art from a ruler, who centuries long ago, took with him to exile from the planet Jibet after a democartic uprising. Doctor Bashir has an ardous task of keeping Supreme Ruler of Jibet alive, who has been preserved in cryogenic suspension for all of these years. Jake and Nog uncover a Cardassian plot of treachery only to involve Deep Space Nine crew.

There is unrest on the planet Jibet and it threatens the well being of Deep Space Nine as Jibet launches an armada. There is action-adventure and your reading will move quickly as the action mounts to a fever pitch and Deep Space Nine is about to be destroyed. I can't devulge the ending but you will be thoroughly be entertained through out the book as old favorites as Dax, Jake, Nog, O'Brien, Bashir, and Odo all come toghther for an action-packed adventure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Whow!
Thrilling from the beginning to the end. All characters excellently written. And a very good amount of interesting special effect scenes (which were great in my imagination :-))... Read more
