Book Description
Some say the line between good and evil is narrower than we imagine -- a divide as subtle as a mirror, and perhaps just as deep. To peer into its black, reflective glass is to know the dark potential we each possess, and we cross that obsidian boundary at our peril . . . into a world where we no longer recognize who we are or what we believed ourselves capable of.
In the late twenty-fourth century, decades after the fall of the once-mighty Terran Empire, the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance dominates the worlds that, in another reality, made up the United Federation of Planets. Humanity and its former subject races are now bound together by their shared oppression, slaves to their cruel and brutal conquerors. But a downtrodden few have found the courage and the strength of will to act. Inspired by visitors from another continuum to fight for their freedom, they have rekindled hope . . . and rediscovered an ancient truth: that every revolution begins with a vision.
Star Trek: VOYAGER ® A rebel ship commanded by a former slave named Chakotay attempts to evade pursuit in the Badlands . . . only to encounter a strange ship that was catapulted seventy thousand light-years across the galaxy. On board the craft are two aliens, one of whom has the potential to completely alter the balance of power within the Alliance. But as both sides of the struggle race to get to the stranger first, treachery throws all schemes into a tailspin.
Star Trek: NEW FRONTIER ® Following the Terran Empire's collapse, its longtime rival, the Romulan Star Empire, has absorbed many of the fringe civilizations spread across that part of the galaxy. One of the Romulans' slaves is M'k'nzy of Calhoun, a savage and unpredictable Xenexian who dreams of death . . . and who learns the value of freedom from the unlikeliest of teachers, a Romulan named Soleta.
Star Trek: DEEP SPACE NINE ® One fallen dictator's struggle to regain her power and her position leads to the discovery of a bold rebel plan for a decisive military strike against the Alliance. But while Kira Nerys navigates the dangerous road of politics, sex, and military intrigue that she believes will lead her back to reclaiming the Intendancy, cracks form in the rebel leadership, leading to a showdown that will change the course of the Mirror Universe.

A trio of stories--two out of three are good. .......2007-08-31
This book contains three stories about the alternate universe first encountered in the original series and continued in Deep Space Nine. I enjoyed the first of these stories (dealing with characters from Star Trek: Voyager) and the third (dealing with characters from Deep Space Nine). The middle one was about the Romulans and I think all the characters in there were new, at least to me.
I was disappointed in that we didn't see a conclusion to the ending of empires towards which Spock was working in the first of the Mirro Universe books.
When did Star Trek become so raunchy?.......2007-08-13
After waiting for over a year for a new Deep Space Nine story, I was excited to see this book on the shelf (especially since it looks like Pocketbooks is never going to release "Fearful Symmetry"). I realize that in the "mirror universe" stories (which they've done to death, by the way) the characters are all very different from the characters we as fans know. But I found nothing respectable in the characters in this book, which has always been what drew me to Star Trek... I care about the characters. I read the stories because I want to know how things turn out for the characters. But I kept reading these stories waiting for them to get better... they didn't. These stories are weak, and that's being charitable.
And the language - I thought Star Trek was about ADVANCED people in Starfleet: healthier, better educated, less crime, etc. If these characters are so well-educated, then why can't they express themselves without such trashy language? I'm not talking about the typical four letter words that are used to express frustration or anger that one could reasonably expect, I'm talking about gutter language. And graphic depictions of extreme violence, torture, and sex that left me feeling like I'd just watched a couple of hours of FX on TV. I've never seen that in the Star Trek franchise before. I hope the editors at Simon and Schuster don't think they were updating Star Trek to make it more hip and modern, because this was just awful. And the worst part is that two of the three authors have written some very good Star Trek stories in the past. I don't know what happened, but this book was definitely a MISS! (That's a few hours of my life I wish I had back.)
Terran Rebellion.......2007-07-15
Barely compatible with the "Dark Passions" duo, Obsidian Alliances was nevertheless as well formulated as its Part 1, Glass Empires.
It would seem that the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance and the Terran Rebellion are doomed to years of fighting, until one exterminates the other (or unless our heroic universe steps in). Mirror characters of DS9 and VOY are almost all as sharp as the ones we're used to except focussed on way different and desperate goals.
Never really connected with NF, but it did add to the completeness of the work.
Here's hoping that the violent Alliance also falls (their cooperation is tenuous at best anyway).
Not too keen on the larger font print. 3.5 stars.
FANTASTIC.......2007-05-16
This was better than the first in the Mirror Series.
Partially because I love the DS9 and New Frontiers Characters but doubly so as I do not care for the Voyager crew and loved that story as well!
Mirror Universe / Obsidian Alliances.......2007-05-14
Nice job on the alternate universe books. A fast-paced read and very well done.
Book Description
There are moments glimpsed only in shadow, where darkness rules and evil incarnate thrives. You hope against hope that in your lifetime, evil is relegated to the shadows. But what if it wasn't?
What if you lived in a universe where your life was measured only by what you could do for the Empire? What would you do to survive? Would you sell your soul to free yourself? If you were offered the chance to rule, would you seize it? If you could free your universe from the darkness but only at the cost of your life, would you pay that price?
Star Trek: Enterprise® She seized power in a heartbeat, daring to place herself against all the overlords of the Empire. Empress Hoshi Sato knows the future that could be; now all she has to do is make sure it never happens. For her to rule, she must hold sway not only over the starship from the future but also over her warlords, the resistance, and her Andorian husband. As quickly and brutally as Hoshi seized power, imperial rule is taken from her. Her only chance to rule again is to ally herself with a lifelong foe, and an alien.
Star Trek® One man can change the future, but does he dare? Spock, intrigued by the vision of another universe's Federation, does what no Vulcan, no emperor, has ever done: seize power in one blinding stroke of mass murder. And at the same instant he gains imperial power, Spock sows the seeds for the Empire's downfall. Is this a form of Vulcan madness, or is it the coolly logical plan of a man who knows the price his universe must pay for its freedom?
Star Trek: The Next Generation® Humanity is a pitiful collection of enslaved, indentured, and abused peoples. No one dares to question the order, except at peril of their lives. One man survives by blinding himself to the misery around him. However, Jean-Luc Picard resists, just once. And in that one instant he unlocks a horror beyond the tyranny of the Alliance. Can a man so beaten down by a lifetime of oppression stop the destruction?
Customer Reviews:
The Mirror Universe is one of the best Star Trek concepts..........2007-09-16
If you like Star Trek buy this book. But first watch the Mirror Universe episodes so you're not lost. :)
Mirror Universe Part 1: Glass Empires (Star Trek Mirror Universe).......2007-09-14
First story line was good, the second one with Spock was excellent. I really enjoyed reading that one. I really enjoyed reading these books.
The only thing I wish for is that the authors of Star Trek keep track of each other's works so they don't contradict each other. I have noticed, between this one and Book II, especially Book II, there are contradictions between these books and "Star Trek Dark Passions Books one and two".
For example, how the Terran empire fell, who was in charge. In these books Spock was the Emporer. In Dark Passions, Spock was merely a Captain, yet both deal with the Mirror Images. Kira Nerys position is different in both, and their situations are far different. Though their personalities are similar.
I would recommend to read one or the other but not both. Though I enjoyed these two books, I preferred Dark Passions series.
Fall of the Terran Empire.......2007-07-15
There are Trek timeline inconsistencies, for example, the length of time that Terrans et al became subject to the lethal Alliance wouldn't be as long as "generations" as quoted in the book. The episodes seem to suggest less than a hundred years, probably even less than half a century (given that the average human lifespan is about 75 years).
Also, it would seem that the author did not take into consideration "Dark Mirror" (Diane Duane), in which a lethal version of Picard captained a dreadnought Enterprise-D. However, I was able to mentally set aside the Duane work to realise that the canon episodes never included their own Mirror Universe TNG.
The book itself was clearly well thought out, a feasible route to destruction of the tyrannical Terran Empire...unfortunately to be surmounted by the even more tyrannical Klingon-Cardassian Alliance.
Enjoyable read, even if it does place our favourite characters in an unpleasant "what-if" situation.
Not too keen on the larger font print. 3.5 stars.
2 out of 3 are great stories.......2007-05-26
I say that two out of three stories are great because the Enterprise era story and the TOS era story were both spectacular. The TNG era story wasn't that great but the author of that one isn't one of my favorites either so I may be biased.
More adventures in the Mirror Universe!.......2007-05-10
Three stories that flow together to form a great picture of the Mirror Universe. Exciting, logical (sorry, couldn't resist) and a joy to read! Highly recommended.
Book Description
Dramatic images never before published in a single volume.
High above the dirty window of Earth's atmosphere, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) enjoys a clear view of the universe.
Hubble uses hundreds of the latest, most spectacular images from the HST to illustrate a comprehensive astronomy reference. Stargazers will be astonished to see in color pictures what were once fuzzy photographs, dots on a star map or words in a textbook.
Hubble explains how new discoveries are revising scientific understanding of the Universe. Detailed images of the Eagle Nebula show several fingers rising above a massive gas cloud. At the end of each fingertip -- the width of our solar system -- is the birth of a star.
The book covers the observable universe in six sections:
Stars in the Firmament
Stellar Death and Destruction
Gregarious Galaxies
The Expansive Universe
Solar Systems
The Heavenly Wanderers
Clear and concise text explains the fascinating history of astronomy and the development of the HST.
Hubble transports readers to the planets of our solar system and on to galaxies millions -- even billions -- of light years away. These dramatic, unforgettable images will bring into sharp focus how the Universe is unfolding in new and astonishing ways.

Our first clear view of the Universe.......2006-02-27
Circling a few hundred miles overhead is one of the engineering marvels of the late twentieth century: humanity's very own mirror on the universe, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Now that we have seen such wonders reflected through its glass, what can we do but venture out into the universe for a closer look?
English astronomer, Robin Kerrod supplies enough explanatory text so that this isn't just another book of beautiful photographs. Among other wonders, we learn about the origins and deaths of stars, cometary knots (which have nothing to do with comets), gaseous stalagmites that have been dubbed 'the pillars of creation,' and protoplanetary disks in the Orion Nebula.
Hubble lets us peer through Titan's atmosphere and into clusters of millions of stars. The planetary nebulae such as the Butterfly and the Spirograph may yield the most beautiful photographs in this book, but it is always the photographs of the vast starfields such as those in the Tarantula Nebula that stop me dead. To think that a few hundred years ago, we were able to count around six thousand stars in the night sky, and now a single photograph yields a million stars in a small pond of gas and dust.
Cosmological theories explode into nonexistence because of these photographs. Others, even stranger are born. The Hubble Deep Field photograph of a small region just north of the Big Dipper (a 120 hour exposure) shows infant galaxies, only a few billion years older than the Universe itself. What will theorists do with this single photograph of a small square of space?
Everyone should own a copy of this book, especially those who are arrogant enough to believe human beings are the center of the Universe. My only problem with some of the double-page photographs is that their most interesting objects are hidden in the book's stitching. This is a very small complaint in the midst of such wonder.
Poorly Executed.......2004-03-24
I just received the book and was fairly disappointed by the overall quality. Except for the cover jacket and the first three double-page photos, the majority of the image reproductions are of poor quality. First, many of the photos look like they were scanned from prints rather than digitally reproduced directly from the original data and show defects like scratches. The photos suffer from a poor selection of dithering pattern used to reproduce the many colors. This gives the overall impression of a grainy photo. Quite a few of the images are displayed at too large a size and have excessive pixellation. A few pages of text were marred with stains or bleed through from the printing process. Finally, about half of the images at the end of the book dealing with the planets are not from Hubble at all. Having seen most of the images in this book in either their native FITS or tif formats I do know what the quality of these should be - and this book ain't it!
The Best Images of the Universe at your Fingertips!!!.......2004-01-13
+++++
The author, Robin Kerrod, an astronomer and accomplished astronomy writer, states in this book's preface the following:
"This book reveals the wonderful, mysterious, and awesome universe of ours...You don't have to be an astronomer to appreciate the...breathtakingly, hauntingly beautiful [colour] images [or pictures], which chronicle frozen moments in the life of the cosmos [or universe]--from the Martian dust storms to...planetary systems [other than our own]; from the birth pangs of young stars to the death throes of ancient ones; from [a very high rate of star formation] in neighbouring galaxies to catastrophic collisions in remote [galaxies]."
Thus, it is the visually stunning and dramatic images that grace all of the 190 pages of this book (published in October 2003) that make it so remarkable. I counted approximately 300 images. Note that of these, about 25 are non-space pictures. My favourite non-space picture is a cutaway diagram of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) that shows its essential features. Each image or picture is accompanied by an excellent description of what's going on in the picture.
This book's title implies that all the space images have come from the HST (named after the foremost U.S. astronomer Edwin Hubble, 1889-1953). Actually, as the picture credits section reveals, the majority of this book's space images do come from the HST but a small minority of them come from other sources such as Earth-based observatories, artificial satellites (for example, the COsmic Background Explorer or COBE), and space probes (such as Voyager 2).
This book is divided into six chapters that deal respectively with star birth, star death, galaxies, the expanding universe, solar systems, and our solar system's planets. The appropriate pictures are put into each chapter. For example, the first chapter on star birth contains about 35 pictures that deal with star birth.
This is not only a picture book! This book also gives an overview of astronomy. That is, each chapter is accompanied by text that is concise, comprehensive, and well-written. I learned much from the combination of Kerrod's lucid text and the magnificant pictures.
This book also has a seventh section that is divided into two parts. The first part explains details about telescopes in general while the second part discusses details about the HST in particular. Both parts include informative pictures.
What significant space event occurred in 1957? When was the HST put into orbit? The answers to these and other similar questions can be found in the section called "Landmarks in Astronomy." This section lists major astronomical landmarks that occurred between 585 BC and 2010 AD.
Need to find the definition of an astronomical/space/telescope term in a hurry? Then use this book's "Glossary of Terms." Such recent terms as "COSTAR", "proplyd", and "WIMP" are given excellent, concise definitions.
There are two obvious problems I found with this book. First, the text on page 162 is duplicated on page 168. Second, there are no references/notes for the book's text. Some of this text information is very recent and very factual. Thus, it seems to me that this information should be properly referenced. All of the pictures, however, do give credit to their sources.
In conclusion, if you want to learn about the universe and see its glorious wonders, then don't go out and buy an expensive telescope or pay the very large amount to be a tourist on the next Space Shuttle flight. Instead, get this relatively inexpensive book and have the universe at your fingertips!!!
+++++
Chapters also cover the science and astronomy involved.......2004-01-09
Robin Kerrod's Hubble gathers some of the most important, breathtaking images from the Hubble system, from the birthplace of stars and the deaths of massive red stars to planets in the making and documentation supporting the collision of galaxies. This isn't just a picturebook: chapters also cover the science and astronomy involved, making this a perfect choice for any who would learn about the latest findings via Hubble.
Good Coffee Table Material.......2004-01-06
This book is worth a spot on the coffee table (or bookshelf even). It is more than a "pretty face" in that it goes into depth in quite a few areas considered very current research in Astronomy such as MACHOS, WIMPS, and galactic cannibalization (with illustrations, of course). Other than a few glaring mistakes they missed in the editing (like saying the Virgo Supercluster of Galaxies is only 100 light years across - pg. 105) it does a good job. Just keep in mind it is long on great photos and a little brief on some topics. Excellent layout that will please both deep sky explorers and planetary "nuts" alike. Divided into 6 chapters each with its focus on one area (ie. Galaxies, Solar System, Cosmology) and the afterwards about the Hubble Space Telescope history was very interesting and replete with pictures also. What I liked best was how the text with the pictures added rather than detracted from the whole reading experience. The text allowed me to stare at the picture even longer and say "wow" more often when I knew more about what I was looking at.

Customer Reviews:
Should have been a movie!.......2005-11-11
The Wrath of Khan is my favorite Star Trek movie, due to the fact that it ties in so well with the original series. After reading STAR TREK: THE MIRROR UNIVERSE SAGA, I can say that this story should have received the cinematic treatment as well, for the same reasons. THE MIRROR UNIVERSE SAGA collects the "New Frontiers" storyline from issues # 9 - 16 of DC's Star Trek series (waaaaay back in '84, remember?), where Captain Kirk and the members of the Enterprise crew re-encounter their evil Terran Empire doubles from the original series show "Mirror, Mirror". This time, however, the stakes are much higher - the Empire's planned invasion of our universe. Author Mike Barr constructs the story to occur between the events of the movies ST3: The Search for Spock and ST4: The Voyage Home. I cannot say if the Mirror Universe Saga fits perfectly with regular continuity, but I can say that the story was good enough for me to enjoy it, despite my not being a huge Trekkie. The plot is a logical extension of the TV episode (20 years later), explaining what happened after its conclusion and providing more information on the state of affairs in the Mirror Universe. The dialogue is written convincingly enough to where I had no problem imagining the actors voicing the actual lines. As you can guess, the plot involves quite a bit of mistaken identity, but Barr handles it well. The art by Tom Sutton and Ricardo Villagran is quite detailed and captures the look of the characters well. Unfortunately, it seems that it wasn't clear enough for the colorist, who obviously was confused between Captain Kirk and the alternate David Marcus, as well as between Lt. Uhura and Marlena. Try a little harder next time...
The introduction by ST novel author A. C. Crispin is the worst part of the book. It's not really so much an intro as it is slobbering praise of Star Trek's greatness. There's no background on the Mirror Universe, no discussion of the story's popularity or evil Spock's fashionable goatee... nothing. In fact, this intro could be used as generic copy to be placed at the beginning of every Star Trek novel or comic. I would think that someone so intimately involved with Star Trek could do better.
One of the Best Star Trek comic stories of all time!.......2001-07-22
This is the 8 part Mirror Uiverse saga story that was written and published by DC Comics in 1984. After the release of the movie " Star Trek III: the Search for Spock, Paramount Pictures gave the comic book license to DC comics to continue the stories after Star Trek III. This particular Story is the sequel to the Star Trek classic episode "Mirror, Mirror" Kirk and crew meet their counteparts from the other Star Trek Demension were the Federation is called the Empire and instead of space exploration the Empire's main goal is to conquer the Universe. This is a wonderful, well written sequel to that episode. And it looks more contemporary since this story takes place during the original Star Trek movies. Written by Mike W. Barr, Tom Sutton and the rest of the DC comics crew. This is one tale not to be missed by comic book fans, Sci-Fi fans, and Classic Star Trek fans a-like. Get it! If you find this out of print book it is definitly worth saving as Star Trek memorablia.
Cloak and Dagger.......2001-01-09
This is the best of the DC comic series in the early eighties. It don't get better than this. Kirk takes the Excelsior to battle his evil counterpart in the Mirror Universe! Romulans, Klingons, a Spock double.....this one's got it all! This would have made a terrific film.
A MUST HAVE FOR ALL STAR TREK COLLECTIONS.......1998-08-08
This is a good book to have even if you have all of the issues of the comic series.The whole story is right here,and there is no need to change books to finish out the story.The Mirror Universe idea was a great one,taken from one of the best episodes of the TV series.Anyone who liked the idea in "Mirror,Mirror" has a great read ahead in this story since it carries on after the other story.The idea was put out for a long time that the Mirror Universe crew was 'NOT DONE YET' with the ideas put out in the TV episode.This is worth the look and well worth the time.
Book Description
One hundred years ago, four crewmembers of the U.S.S EnterpriseTM crossed the dimensional barrier and found a mirror image of their own universe, populated by nightmare duplicates of their shipmates. Barely able to escape with their lives, they returned, thankful that the accident which had brought them there could not be duplicated, or so they thought.
But now the scientists of that empire have found a doorway into our universe. Their plan is to destroy from within, to replace a Federation Starships with one of their own. Their victims are the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D, who now find themselves engaged in combat against the most savage enemies they have ever encountered, themselves.
Customer Reviews:
A chore........2007-07-22
This book was a chore to get through. I've read a handful of Trek novels, and this is my least favorite by far. It was dry, boring and difficult to get through. The novel had no structure of any kind (no build up and no climax) and the "suprise ending" was pretty lame. I found a lot of the characters saying and doing things they normally wouldn't do. I know that Duane is no stranger to the Trek franchise, but if I didn't know better I would assume that she didn't know these characters at all.
Yes a Great story and a Good ending.......2007-04-10
I did read some of the previous reviews, and I do agree that this is one of the best stories to come from the Mirror universe idea that I've ever read. The author really conveys both the good and evil quite well and in a believable way. All the Star Trek characters are well written and you hear their voices clearly. The ending is not that bad, don't be alarmed. I liked everything about this book.
Great story, weak ending.......2006-05-23
This is a wonderful story--the author really knows the characters and stays true to their personalities. Also the story is solid, and unfolds in a steady pace. But the end doesn't seem satisfying--the outcome almost seems too easy, and the pacing doesn't feel right (things happen too quickly as we get close to the end, and cause the outcome to be almost unbelievable).
I can't say more because I don't want to give away any of the story to those of you who still care to read it. It truly is a great read. Just be prepared for a slightly disappointing ending.
How the Mirror Universe should have been handled. .......2005-10-07
Well, as is said in several other reviews, this novel does not follow what is "cannonical" Star Trek. Anyone familiar with the DS9 Episodes and William Shatner's later extension of those premises knows that in "Official History" The Terran Empire fell to its own corruption and greed, perhaps assisted by Shatner's Kirk-centeric view of things focused on the evil Emperor Tiberius AKA evil James Kirk.
You have to remember when this lovely novel was written. It was published in 1993, at the end of Next Generation's TV run. That was a year before the DS9 Episodes first aired, and a decade before Shatner's novels. It's not unusual for books to be contradicted by the series, and this is an example.
The book begins slowly, with a wordy introduction about quantum physics and an overly descriptive introduction to the floating dolphin scientist. This character could have been so much more than just a gimmick alien, but it was still nice to experience a non-humanoid alien. Soon, a strange intruder is found on the ship, and he appears to be a doppelganger of a crewmember; a twisted and paranoid one at that.
Picard and company find the ship is transported to a mirror universe, with a hideously beweaponed mirror of their ship, and a truly evil crew. As they struggle to thwart an invasion of their own universe, they encounter grotesque caricatures of themselves.
With Crusher as an abused "kept" woman, and Troi the deliciously power-hungry dominatrix, we get great incites into two of the lesser known characters via this plot device. While the ending relies heavily on Treknobabel and Treknology, the meat of this story is great reading. The author crafts masterful doubles that don't stray too far into the absurd in their inverted personalities.
Well Read With A Weak Story.......2005-04-28
This review is for the Abridged Audio version (2 tapes, 3+ hours). Let me start by saying that John De Lancie has a great gift for reading audio books and replicating all of the characters very well (even the women!). If it had not been for him, I would have rated this book three stars. The premise was a little vague. On the one hand there were the physical limitations of how much matter could exist in the alternate universe, but on the other the Enterprise crew was trying to stop an invasion? Perhaps some of the story ended up on the cutting room floor? It seemed very weak to me. Also, the crew does the usual pulling an improbable series of miracles out of a hat in order to win the day. Predictable. I enjoyed the special effects, quite good; they did not drown out the narration at any time, and added much to the story. Hmmm, in retrospect, perhaps the story would rate two stars, and De Lancie actually brings it up to a 4? If you like De Lancie, then buy this audio book, if not then the story is not worth the purchase.
