5.0 out of 5 stars Klingon's and Kool, 11 Jan 2010
By Perfectbub "Fiona" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
It is unusual to have a Star Trek book like this, instead of focusing on the Federation the author has chosen to write about the Klingons and it works. The characterisation is mainly based below the decks, whch gives an interesting edge to the book.

I find the desciptions of the lower ranks brilliant, especially the banter between the troops. I did laugh out loud. Sometimes the Klingon Empire is displayed as being too one-dimentional but the characters are brave, cowrdly, thick, funny and grumpy. I found the love story between the Chief Engineer and Leskit to be pure genius. I have alll the books of this series and cannot wait for more

Decandido is one of the best Trek writers and he has created a franchise that is story teling at its best. Give him a go, you won't regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow!, 26 Aug 2004
By Kurt A. Johnson (Marseilles, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
In this sequel to A Good Day to Die, with General Talak on his way to betray Captain Klag's word of honor and enslave the San-Tarah, Klag calls on the members of the Order of the Bat'leth to rally to him and protect the very honor of the Klingon Empire. But, how many will rally to his cause, and can he even trust his own crew in a battle against the Klingon fleet? This will be a battle royal, with no quarter asked or given, pitting ships against ships, and battle-scared warriors against warriors. It is indeed a good day to die!

Wow! I must admit that years ago I drifted away from reading Star Trek books, but these two books (Honor Bound and its prequel) make me regret that decision. The author does an excellent job of bringing the Klingons to life, with all of the honor and love of battle that you would expect. This is a great book, every bit as good as the first book, and perhaps even better. I really enjoyed this book, and think that you will too. Get this book!

This is a wonderful addition to the Star Trek universe. Well written, quite uniquely from both perspectives. Highly recommended.
