Embers of the Fire plunges readers into the turbulent aftermath of the Dominion War, where the fragile peace in occupied Cardassian territory is threatened by insurgency, political intrigue, and the scars of recent conflict. Captain Donald Sandhurst, newly promoted and burdened by the weight of command, must lead a crew of misfits aboard the recommissioned USS Gibraltar on a mission of mercy and stabilisation. As Starfleet and its allies struggle to render aid amidst chaos, Sandhurst and his officers face relentless attacks, moral dilemmas, and the harsh realities of occupation.
From desperate refugee camps to clandestine rebel strongholds, the story weaves together the perspectives of Starfleet officers, Cardassian survivors, and Klingon warriors, exploring themes of duty, redemption, and the cost of leadership. With advanced weapons, secret technologies, and shifting alliances, the fate of a planet—and perhaps the quadrant—hangs in the balance.
A gripping tale of resilience and sacrifice, Embers of the Fire is a must-read for fans of Star Trek and military science fiction, offering a nuanced look at the complexities of peace, war, and the embers that remain when the fire has passed.
