Very excited about the book and that chapter is a nice little teaser.

Plus, the sample sounds pretty interesting. I’ll have to add it to the “to-buy” list, just incase this post is unsuccessful.
Blind me with Science…
Engineering!
Command, all the way. Pushing others around even in the 25th century.
Science.
This is such a hard choice, I’m torn between medical and engineering. Let’s go with engineering since I am working on a Masters in Information Science. Yay for Trek and so many awesome giveaways.
Science!
I like free books!
Oh and I chose ‘command’!
Definitely Science.
Command. Make it so!
Engineering!
Would love an ‘engineering’! :)
engineering for me :)
Engineering, without a doubt!
I wonder what Ezri and Julian are up to these days? I choose Science.
Science!
Looking forward to the new book. Full Circle and Losing the Peace set the stage to introduce the Typhon Pact however, I was beginning to think nothing was going to materialize as 2010 has been a dry ST book year.
Engineering would be cool
Command! Woo!
I’m an Engineer at heart. :D Can’t wait to read this one.
Can’t pass up the command one!
Always up for free books! The pin would be awesome, too!

Science. Yes.
I COMMAND you to give me this book and pin.

Where else can you use the catch phrase “He’s Dead, Jim”
Definitely Engineering!
Oooooh, I want the engineering one!

Well the Captain is too sexy for his shirt so- Command:)
Woof™.

I fear the result. But the experiment … is science. For SCIENCE!

Tough choice, but I’m gonna have to side with engineering on this one.

I’ll take the Science one then.
I’m old fashioned… command!

Engineering – I can’t tae’ it Cap’n – It’ll blow…..

So much SCIENCE to do!!
Make it so… (command)

Medical if I win, please. It will be useful when I go back to work.
If Medical is unavailable, Science would be my second choice.
I’d love a command pin, :)
I’m gonna be looking for this book on the weekend, just in case.
One bad thing about Kindle…I can’t get it early…like when I saw it in the store today….drat!
Medical, btw…
Engineering for me! And can’t wait to read this book!!
I always favored Science as well.
So you would pin a Medical insignia on me and call me a Donkey?
Hee haw hee haw hee haw … quite the funniest thing!
I’d love to win the Command pin. Thanks for the chance!
I’m commanding – every now and then. Love the game.
Love the covers of these books! Recently bought a JJ movie-style redshirt and would love the engineering pin to put over the pretend one it came with.
Command. :) Oh I hope i win!!! :)
Engineering, of course! And thanks..
Science.
It’s about a bloody time…. for reading of course… :)
Science! Woot
Definitely command for the win! By the way, I love the excerpts I’ve read for the forthcoming (David Mack) addition to the Typhon Pact storyline. I’ve been waiting (un)patiently for the books to start coming out. Curse Pocket Books for making us wait so long for our 24th century fix. lol
