Star Trek with limited starfleet input - By: B. Green, 23 Jan 2002 
This book would have got 5 stars if it included more of the regular New Frontier characters. The conclusion is also very rushed & obviously sets up the story which will run for the next few books. But this is not a total loss as the writting of Peter David is at its best & the story generally flows following the adventures of Xyon, who has a clouded past, more info to follow. If you have enjoyed this series to date then jump on board, if you are only interestedin the sexual exploits of the Exaliber crew then skip it.
A Good Set-Up for Book 8, but only Half of a Novel... - By: , 19 Mar 2000 
The latest New Frontier book strays even further from its Next Generation roots than the previous novels, focussing on Si Cwan, Lt. Kebron & a host of new characters.
Although the new characters are fairly interesting & provide much of the background to Book 8: Dark Allies, they do steal much of the limelight, pushing favourite New Frontier characters out of the narrative for chapters at a time.
The "Quiet Place" of the title is not a particularly interesting concept & is only describedin a rather rushed & confusing manner at the novels conclusion.
By being more of a prologue than a novelin its own right & by not featuring many of the New Frontier characters such as Selar, Burgoyne, McHenry or Shelby at all, this book was my least favouritein the New Frontier series.
