Return to the edge of the final frontier.

In the aftermath of a war that brought the Alpha Quadrant to the brink of destruction, Starbase Deep Space 9 - the galaxy's nexus of scientific and military intrigue - is once more the flashpoint of impending Armageddon as a surprise attack cripples the station, killing hundreds and threatening the fragile new peace.

Colonel Kira Nerys and the survivors - together with several controversial new officers - are all who stand against the outbreak of a new war and a terrible doom tied to the unborn child of Captain Benjamin Sisko.

Elsewhere, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the Starship Enterprise make a startling discovery... one that will affect the destiny of an entire civilization and forever change the lives of those aboard Deep Space 9.

A bold new beginning for one of the most compelling Star Trek sagas of all.
