Superb story focussing on second-tier characters.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This is a marvellous story, well-conceived and well-executed, focussing on Uhura, Sulu, and Chekov. Not for fans of the usual "big three" of Star Trek; Kirk and McCoy make only cameo apprearences, (as do Scotty, M'Benga, Chapel, and Rand) and Spock makes none at all, but for anyone who enjoys seeing the lower-ranking characters get a bit of developement, this book is delightful.
My favorite book in the Lost Years series
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book is my favorite in the Lost Years series for one simple reason: Dr. Leonard H. McCoy. Before other reviewers go to scoffing and rating this one unhelpful, let me explain why. The scenes in which he treats a wounded Chekov for a broken arm show me so clearly what all doctors should strive for as an ideal: not just "bedside manner" which can be put on and taken off like a coat, but actual _compassion_ for their patients, that they left me breathless and dazed with wonder at the enormity of the revelation. L. A. Graf should be a lecturer (or is that lecturers?) at every medical internship school in the country. At the very least, this book should be required reading for all surgical students. (Probably a lttle unrealistic, I know, but where there is life, there is hope.)
L.A. Graf is AWESOME!

I absolutely love this book, and rank it in my top three favorites! It, and other books by L.A. Graf are great in their Chekov material. My favorite phrase in reference to this author is this: "The only author that can write Chekov." Sooooo, for all you people that are sick of Chekov's two-syllable lines(Yes, sir. No, sir.), this is an awesome book and author!
A must-read for any Chekov fan

This book is by far the best of the Lost Years books. It kept me on the edge of my seat. A fantastic example of great sci fi / adventure writing and with conspiracy intricately woven throughout the plot, it is an excellent book that even non-trekkers could enjoy. Also, like so many other L. A. Graf books, it focuses on the Chekov, Sulu, and Uhura group instead of Kirk, Spock, and McCoy (that's not to imply that we don't love them too!) so it makes for a refreshing change of pace. My advice to readers everywhere is this: DO NOT MISS THIS BOOK!
To heck with 10!! This book is an 11!!!

I have been a Trek fan since day one and have read many of the published stories, but none of the writer's have captured the original Trek series as well as L.A. Graf. Most stories concentrate on Kirk-Spock-McCoy, and while there's absolutely nothing wrong with that, the other characters are just as interesting, and I adore the closeness of the Uhura-Sulu-Chekov triology just as much! Traitor Winds leaves you breathless! It would have made an excellent movie! It has action, mystery, and you won't--you CAN'T put the book down once you start reading. And JOY JOY--all the other L.A. Graf books are just as terrific!! If you read one, you will drool until you read them all! I've heard another one is in the works---put me on the list to buy it!
