4.0 out of 5 stars A very broad range of story quality., Jan 1 2004
By R. Spottiswood (Western Australia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The range of quality of these stories has always varied between stories that should not have been included and stories that I find among the most entertaining and/or best in Trek. I did not find the Original Series stories to be either, except for the seemingly obligatory Iotian mob story. In fact, I do not see why the first story was included, let alone won a prize. The first Next Generation story, "The Soft Room", was brilliant. The others were good but not particularly entertaining. In Deep Space Nine, the first story was remarkable and I really enjoyed it. The next one was just silly. The last was Nog facing the Kobayashi Maru test, which has been done in a previous Strange New Worlds, and much better. The Voyager stories were generally well written and entertaining. "Seven and Seven" deserves specific mention for a great concept. Even better was "The End of Night". If you ever wished Kirk would show up on Voyager and correct some of Janeway's mistakes, this is for you. For Enterprise, the stories are good but to my mind point out how Enterprise does not fit in with Star Trek, particularly the depiction of the Vulcans. Finally, the new Speculations section contains one great story and the absolutely brilliant "Our Million-Year Mission". "The End of Night" is my favourite because of the concept, but "Our Million-Year Mission" is the most genuinely entertaining.

3.0 out of 5 stars Needs to make a few changes for SNW:VII, Sep 11 2003
By A Customer
First of all, nearly all of the stories presented in this volume were great - but there needs to be a few changes for SNW:VII. The first problem to over come is the fact that (in nearly every volume of STN) there are stories concerning Star Trek:TOS episodes"A Piece Of The Action" and "City On The Edge Of Forever". While these episodes are very good, enough about them. Let's move on to others. (With "City...." we get it - Kirk was very upset about Edith Keeler's death.)

The second problem is that there needs to be more Star Trek: DS9 and Enterprise stories. While the "Enterprise" series is still relatively new, there never seems to be more than three (some very short) stories in any given volume about DS9.

Third, no more stories centering 'exclusively' around Data. This is one Star Trek character that the fans need to let go of. Enough of Data, already!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good stories this year!, July 3 2003
By MICHAEL J EVANS (Cincinnati, OH USA) - See all my reviews
Strange New Worlds VI outdoes some of its past editions in the overall quality of the stories. All were well done, with perhaps one or two exceptions (the Voyager and Enterprise stories were not that impressive). The good stories were really good. My favorites were THE SOFT ROOM, PROTECTING DATA'S FRIENDS, and BEST TOOLS AVAILABLE. The grand prize winner, OUR MILLION-YEAR MISSION, was well done but lacked the powerful punch I was expecting from the editor's introduction. If you pick this book up, you'll get a number of fun and entertaining stories that aren't "too far out" as some of the stories in the previous 2 volumes are.
