Review: An improvement over the 2nd book in the series

This is the 3rd book in the Star Wolf series, if you don’t count the prequel that is. The book was certainly an improvement over the previous one. Not that this would be an extremely difficult task. As you can see from the book blurb this story was originally meant as a Star Trek – The Next Generation script and that I can believe. It would probably have made a fairly decent script as well.It also says that it’s the conclusion of the Star Wolf trilogy. That’s a downright lie. This book brings no real conclusion to the main story of of the Human/Morthan war whatsoever. I get the feeling that someone used to write rubbish presentations for TV-show episodes wrote that crap.Well, what about the book then? As I said it’s definitely an improvement over the last book in the series, The Middle of Nowhere. The book concentrates more on the actual story and there are not so much of the unrelated and boring discussions between members of the crew. That didn’t stop the author from throwing in one about sex again though. He seems to have a problem with that subject since he cannot let go of it. More TV-show syndrome?The story of the book is fairly okay although it is a bit “trek-ish” in that there are a lot of fancy words but there’s not much sound science in it. I can live with that since what’s there is not too bad.In the end it was a fairly okay read but I’m not too sorry that the author decided to stop the series even though, contrary to the blurb, there was no real conclusion to it.
