XolokReads reviewed Hell's Heart: Prey, Book 1 by John Jackson Miller (Prey -- bk. 1)
Did not know what to expect. Was pleasantly surprised!
4 stars
This was my first Star Trek novel series, and I basically expected something on the caliber of the usual popular franchise novel - probably fun but pulpy. I have to say that this was better than I was expecting. Yes, these books depend on you being familiar to a certain extent with the characters from the TV shows, but I feel like the narrative stands pretty well on its own. It was incredibly adventurous in its narrative choices, but it was creative and I felt pulled to read the series all the way through.
