This novel has an engaging story and excellent characterization (except Garak, IMHO). The future events are extremely twisted and the villains are... very villainous. Gregari even outvillain the Borg. There are especial commendations to the "Voyager" cameous. I have not read the "Fall of Teraknor", but now I am looking forward to reading both the prequel and the sequel to the "War of the Prophets". Recommended.
