Product Description:
On Earth, Federation President Nanietta Bacco gathers allies and adversaries to form a desperate last line of defense against an impending Borg invasion. In deep space, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Captain Ezri Dax join together to cut off the Collective's route to the Alpha Quadrant.
Half a galaxy away, Captain William Riker and the crew of the Starship Titan have made contact with the reclusive Caeliar -- survivors of a stellar cataclysm that, two hundred years ago, drove fissures through the structure of space and time, creating a loop of inevitability and consigning another captain and crew to a purgatory from which they could never escape.
Now the supremely advanced Caeliar will brook no further intrusion upon their isolation, or against the sanctity of their Great Work....For the small, finite lives of mere mortals carry little weight in the calculations of gods.
But even gods may come to understand that they underestimate humans at their peril.

I have read Book One "Gods of Night" of STAR TREK destiny and I'm half-way through Book Two "Mere Mortals" of STAR TREK destiny; I anticipate reading Book Three with great enjoyment as well as excitement. I am of the opinion that David Mack is an excellent science-fiction writer; his characters are so real & recognizable to me.

The second book continues to drive the multilayered story forward in a creative and compelling manner. I cannot wait to find out what happens in the end, but am content reading along to see it all unfold. I really cared less about the Hernandez subplot at first but have all kinds of theories as to where it will lead and can't wait to see it unfold. I care for those characters now, and that is the mark of good writing. I wanted to see more of Riker, and that is my only negative comment about any of the ... Read More

Not only Mere Mortals but the complete trilogy "Destiny" is great. The way that so many questions are answered regarding the borgs and how the whole ordeal is close is creative, sound and interesting. I will recommend this for every TNG fan even though the Picard that is presented is a shadow of the one I remember from the TV series...of course all fits according to the history but is the one thing that kept me sometimes wondering... this somber and pesimistic guy is just not the same captain I recall ...

Although slightly darker than Book 1: Gods of Night, Book 2: Mere Mortals retains the excitement, the emotion, and the storytelling excellence that I've come to expect from works by Trek novelist David Mack.
The characterizations were genuine and the plot was captivating from page one onward. Mack has an impeccable understanding of the Star Trek universe and uses it to make the book come to life with believable dialogue and detailed narration. For instance, during a triage scene, the meticulous ... Read More
