Rising Son.

\\n

The last time Jake Sisko was seen in the Deep Space\\nNine relaunch, he had bought a ship from Quark and was headed into\\nthe wormhole, in an effort to fulfill a prophecy that seemed to\\nindicate he would be reunited with his father. It would not be till\\nsix books later that we would have an answer to the question, "What\\nhappened to Jake?".

\\n

In this episode of Literary Treks hosts Matthew\\nRushing and Dan Gunther talk about Rising Son. We discuss our first\\nimpressions, Opaka\'s escape, Jake\'s life in his father\'s shadow,\\nhow we live, free will, predestination, responsibility, life\'s\\npurpose, planting the seeds for the future and our\\nratings.\\xa0

\\n

In our news segment we talk about the way the Star\\nTrek books hold up, judge a book by it\'s cover and then celebrate\\nthe 100th episode by talking about some of the favorite books we\'ve\\ncovered, interviews and a sincere thank you to all of the listeners\\nfor their support as well as to the authors for being so generous\\nwith their time.
