@TheGrandNagus Kinda makes sense that way. Flung into trouble because of her adherence to the Prime Directive, then had to do whatever it took to get the crew home… I’d waffle about, too.

@Stamets Jeffery Coombs, the everyman.

@Anaphory @solarpunk great book!

Who was “better utilized” is a hard question in my view, but I think it’s clear that Quark was a more fully developed character.

Guinan appeared seldom but always gave insight to characters when they most needed it. She was enigmatic, and cool, but not very fleshed out.

Quark was more realized as a character - more complex, more highs and lows, more emotions. I didn’t like him much, but he was more “interesting” to watch.

@clover I thought “The Terraformers” was an excellent long form solarpunk novel. The themes of nature and community to overcome oppression were very satisfying.
