\\nS.D. Perry set up the continuation of Deep Space Nine beautifully\\nin the first part of the Avatar duology, but the real payoff comes\\nin book two. On the final pages of the first half we were left with\\na cliffhanger that threatened to renew hostilities between the\\nFederation and the Dominion. In this episode of Literary Treks we\\nconclude our look at the start of Pocket Books\' relaunch of DS9 and\\nhow S.D. Perry may have not only captured the pure essence of Deep\\nSpace Nine but actually elevated it.

\\nIn our news segment we look inside Mike and Denise Okuda\'s new book\\nOn Board the U.S.S. Enterprise, get an update on Willain Leisner\'s\\nupcoming TOS novel The Shocks of Adversity, learn how to speak\\nKlingon, and check in on the release schedule for IDW\'s Star Trek\\nOngoing #19 and the Ongoing Volume 4 omnibus.\\xa0
