This story has gotten very creepy--I wouldn't do the things the characters have been doing in this lol! They're too risky. It's starting to feel like I'm watching a horror movie, and I'm like, "What the hell are they thinking? Or maybe they're not thinking at all!" Which is strange for tends-to-be-intellectual Star Trek.

But, it's creating a suspenseful read....

Will get back to this tonight--for various reasons, I never got a change to read any of this last night, like I'd been doing every night.

This story has gotten quite suspenseful and I'm still enjoying it! Note that I had been updating my progress in the comments section of my previous update.

This book is science fiction and not science fact, and there is no real science in the umbrella of a work of fiction, which by definition is fake. No one’s doing real science in a fiction work. So, IMO, anything goes in fake, in fiction. However...I don’t think the writer of AOI has science training (?), especially in atmospheric science, and because of a part in this story, I want to explain something below….

I'm liking this so far, which is a good thing considering my DNFing with the few other Voyager books I'd tried. I do wish there were fewer characters to keep track of in AOI. It seems like the newer Star Trek & Star Wars books all suffer from an inability--or lack of will--to reduce the size of the "casts" inside them, maybe in an attempt to seem more epic? Uh, I don't think that really works. Condense, condense....

The story's getting more developed. Those biodomes are neat but also creepy. I hope the people in this don't make a really bad mistake!

I really like the weird biodome stuff in this, but I don't know if there will be more about that later on....
