Summary: ST:DS-9 Trial by Error
Comment: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Trial by Error written by Mark Garland is a Quark book, as Quark hatches another scheme and his greed brings Deep Space Nine under attack.
This book lays a ground work and starts out slow, but don't lose heart as it wraps-up with plenty of action. Quarks is known for his enterprising schemes some of which are suspect for being legal. Odo wouldn't mind seeing Quark falling flat on his face while a scheme backfires, we see Quark trading with a Gamma Quadrant race... a lucrative deal to trade trellium crystals from the gamma Quadrant for gold-pressed latinum. Quark will realize enormous profits, but there is a catch.
Quark thinks this is too good to be true... and of course it is as we see Quarks scheme beginning to fall apart as the Gamma Quadant race, Quarks trading partners has enemies. Now, this distrust begins to tarnish the deal as a third alien race from the Gamma Quadrant begins to suspect theft, piracy or worse... as we known things that a Ferengi is good at including guile, cunning, trickery, and deceitfulness.
Now, all three alien races begin to distrust each other and the well-being of Deep Space Nine is in jeopardy. Klingons and Ferengi also get involved and now a shooting war breaks out and the action really gets heated-up. I found the book to be a quick, fast read as Quark's brokering gets him into trouble. The book fleshs out the character of Quark and we get a better sense of to what extent Quark will go to make gold-pressed latinum.

Summary: a yawner.........
Comment: Had hoped for much more... it's the type of book that sets up the conflict for 200 pages, massages it for 60 more, and then resolves it in only 10!! VERY unsatisfying ending.
Rating: 3
Summary: A Quark DS9 novel.
Comment: Although Sisko and O'Brien are on the cover, this DS9 novel is about the trials and errors of Quark. Greed and the need for more profit are the evils which bring about the plot of this novel.
Although not the best of the DS9 novels, a definate must for Quark fans.
