Within the depths of Deep Space Nine lurks a secret from Cardassia's past that could destroy the entire galaxy…
Station Rage is a Pocket DS9 novel – #13 in the numbered series – written by Diane Carey. Published by Pocket Books, it was first released in November 1995.
Summary[]
- From the book jacket
- What began as a sticky political problem soon evolves into full-scale chaos for Commander Sisko when a tomb of Cardassian soldiers is discovered on Deep Space Nine. While Sisko searches for a way to return the soldiers to Cardassia, the "bodies" begin to pulsate with life, determined to seek revenge on the enemies now occupying the former Cardassian stronghold.
- But as the soldiers launch their attack to cripple the station, and Sisko struggles to regain control, another old enemy plots to destroy the soldiers at any cost – even if it means destroying Deep Space Nine as well!

FURTHER SUMMARY
Memorable quotes[]
"I offer you all my honors, leader of my father, and I hear you whisper. This is the best time of all. Now I hand you all I have built here and turn myself over to you. I will bring you back to influence in this powerful age... and you will do the same for me".
- Garak.
Background information[]
- An audiobook of this novel was produced by the American Printing House for the Blind. The audiobook was provided on two cassettes.
- This novel takes place between "The Adversary" and "The Way of the Warrior", as Sisko is referred to as Captain; however, the book jacket blurb (and one erroneous dialogue reference) still refers to him as Commander, and the cover itself depicts his rank as Commander.
