S.D. Perry's two Avatar books launched the new series of novels which took the story of Deep Space Nine beyond the end of the television series -- the first time that authorised Star Trek fiction had expanded a TV series in such a way, with new ongoing characters and a whole new mythology emerging from the established canon. Avatar exploded onto the Star Trek novel scene, earning a 10/10 review rating from TV Zone and going on to become the bestselling Star Trek books of their year, at the same time setting the scene for the sequence of critically acclaimed and fan-favourite Deep Space Nine books which followed. Now Avatar Books One and Two, together with the third and fourth of the all-new Deep Space Nine stories, Abyss and Demons of Air and Darkness, are re-released as the one-volume Twist of Faith -- a stunning introduction to the mystery, intrigue and conflict that made Deep Space Nine the most complex and the most rewarding of all the Star Trek series. Set in the aftermath of the Dominion War, Avatar heralds both a new threat and a discovery which will profoundly affect the lives of all the crew. Meantime in Abyss, Dr.Julian Bashir faces his darkest nightmare when Section 31, the black ops division of Starfleet, tries to compel him to eliminate one of their own. And in Demons of Air and Darkness, Colonel Kira Nerys and some unexpected allies fight to close down the alien Gateways and avert destruction on a planetary scale. Dark secrets, divided allegiances, treachery and, ultimately, hope - these four tales are Deep Space Nine at its best.

Travel to two of the most colorful and fascinating civilizations in the Star Trek universe with this collection of two sweeping and reflective novellas that transport us to the alien planets of Ferenginar and the Dominion.In Ferenginar, Quark’s profit-driven home planet is rocked by a shocking scandal when allegations that Quark’s brother’s first wife has threatened to overthrow the Grand Nagus of the Ferengi Alliance, Rom. To make matters worse, Quark has been recruited by Rom’s political adversaries to join their coup d’état, with promises that all of Quark’s wildest dreams will come true if he helps. Quark must decide if the future of Ferenginar is worth his greatest desires or if he is strong enough to save it himself. In The Dominion, the Great Link—the living totality of the shape-shifting Founders—has struggled with questions ever since its defeat in the war for the Alpha Quadrant. At its greatest moment of intense doubt, its fate, and that of the Dominion itself, is tied to Odo’s investigation of his kind’s true motives for sending a hundred infant changelings out into the galaxy. As Odo searches for answers and takes a hard look at his past choices, Taran’atar reaches a turning point in his own quest for clarity—one from which there may be no going back.

Betrayed by one of their own, the Deep Space Nine crew faces a deadly foe who once was a friend and a threat unlike any they've yet to face in this thrilling addition to the Deep Space Nine saga.They were created to be killing machines. Highly intelligent, resourceful, and deceptively complex, the Jem'Hadar are a species engineered for war and programmed at the genetic level for one purpose: to fight until death as soldiers of the sprawling stellar empire known as the Dominion. No Jem'Hadar has ever lived thirty years, and not even their masters, the shape-shifting Founders, know what such a creature is capable of becoming were it to be freed of its servitude. One Founder, however, has dared to wonder. Appointed by Odo himself to learn peaceful coexistence aboard Deep Space 9, Taran'atar—an Honored Elder among the Jem'Hadar—had for months been a staunch, if conflicted, ally to the crew of the station, ever struggling to understand the mission on which he was sent—until something went horrifically wrong. Consumed by self-doubt and an ever-growing rage, Taran'atar has lashed out against those he was sworn to aid. While Captain Kira Nerys and Lieutenant Ro Laren both lie near death aboard DS9, their assailant has taken a hostage and fled into Cardassian space, pursued by Commander Elias Vaughn on the U.S.S. Defiant. But as the hunt unfolds, Taran'atar's true objective becomes increasingly less certain, as the rogue Jem'Hadar leads the Defiant to a discovery even more shocking than his crime.
