A delightful spin-off of the Star Trek world with the inevitable death of the "redshirt" crew member. Quite fun to read.

My only question is: does the author have an addiction to the word "said". There are a many wonderful ways to show a character expressing something, but to rely on the word "said" as often as he did gets to be almost silly. My only problem, and a minor one at that, with the book.
