The Black Shore
(Star Trek: Voyager #13)
by Greg Cox

After weeks of lonely journeys through a desolate region to the Delta Quadrant, the crew of “Voyager” is badly in need of
shore leave, so the planet Ryolanov seems just what the doctor ordered. Full of warm sunlight and gracious, hospitable people,
Ryolanov is a veritable oasis amidst the endless reaches of uncharted space…. but not everything is as is seems .. 

This story morphs, from a idyllic holiday romance, to a bit of mystery. Then it’s  in full Sci-Fi  mode for a long section before the final act, an all out war and horror story.

This had me worried for a long time that nothing would happen. But not to worry, Greg Cox has yet to dissapoint.
