    Book cover"Star Trek: Vanguard" (VAN) is a new book series telling a story about a space station in the timeframe or Kirks first 5-year mission. Starbase 47 "Vanguard" is one of the latest space stations of the UFP build in a border region more or less between the Klingon and Tholian empire called the Thaurus Reach. And no: In my opinion this isn't really a DS9 clone. True, both are about a space station somewhere on the edge of known space etc. but while DS9 has Bajor to put most of its plot in relation to, Vanguard seems to live from the exploration of a whole sector but with more or less known enemies like the Klingons and the Tholians. But the plot will probably also introduce a new power ... In DS9 it was also very clear from the beginning, why the UFP wanted to get a foothold in this sector, while in VAN it's a secret that only the reader and some people of the command staff know about. VAN in my opinion smells more like a spy/thriller story to me than the more soap oriented DS9 ;-)
