Star Trek: Mirror Universe: Rise Like Lions

"Rise Like Lions" ties together the many short stories, novels, and DS9 tie-ins that have been set in the Mirror Universe over the past few years. Some of the details I'd forgotten, but this book did a good job bringing me up to speed.

My only concern was that this seemed more like "just" an alternate universe than a mirror one. I always saw the Mirror Universe as a place where evil triumphed, but the characters and their personalities in this book were too similar to the Prime universe. The final chapter especially didn't show as much variation as it had the potential to.

But still a fun tale with some very moving moments.
