This is one of the weaker Star Trek novels I've read.
There are editing problems- at one point there are 700 incoming missiles and then a few paragraphs later it is 200; Nurse Chapel gets named checked as being off screen doing something (quite plausible given the situation) with M'Benga and then a few pages later the person assisting him has a different name.
The space battles are not consistent with TOS cannon nor with themselves.
McCoy, in the first chapter or two, acts in a way that would actively sabotage the active diplomacy.
Spock's nonconsential mind melding with the aliens is inconsistent with the character.
On the plus side, the two alien species (and their characterization) are interesting and characters like Lieutenant Carolyn Palamas get some screen time.… (plus d'informations)

Very strong book with some of my favourite Discovery crew members, Stamets and Culber. It's set a little before S02.E05 and focuses a lot on Hugh's experience in the mycelial network. There are times, my heart broke knowing how the two characters care for one another. As far as I can tell, there were no disruptions from established canon despite the fact I originally thought there were then realized what was going on.
I had some sense at what was going to happen at a few key points, but that is because I knew how it would play out having seen Discovery.… (plus d'informations)

A clever direction - philosophical and mysterious and more!
Galanter gives us the USS Discovery ... but one with CAPTAIN Burnham. A Paul Stamets meeting Hugh Culber ... but not his Hugh. And there's a talking (sort-of) tardigrade. It's a very trippy story - but one that leverages off of ideas and events within the Discovery series in an interesting and engaging way.

ETA: The narrator does an excellent job with this.
