THERE IS A FERENGI FEMALE IN THIS BOOK
SHE IS A CIVIL SERVANT
SHE IS A CIVILIAN SCIENTIST
I ADORE HER~~~~
I adore all things~~~~~~
Things I am enjoying about “The Missing”, #1:
Everyone is female. Like, I mean errybody. There’s one male. And another potentially being rescued. And everybody else, everybody, EVERYBODY, is female.
Doin’ good, Una. At this rate Trek might catch Doctor Who yet.
Odo and Garaaaaaak~~
When Una McCormack writes Garak, he tastes a bit like Miles Vorkosigan.
i-fought-space asked:
She’s Altariel on AO3, if I recall correctly. And oh, goodness, she’s good.
Una writes the very best confused, disoriented, grasping-for-reality Garak. Twice in two books now…
Another thing I really like about Una McCormack is that you can trust her writing.
There was a character who I thought was written rather clunkily. I was slightly grumpy about it. I expected better from Una.
And then, of course, it was on purpose, because that character is _strange_…
A good writer. A _trustworthy_ writer, who wields language like a tool.
Things I adore in “Hollow Men”:
Odo randomly shapeshifting just a little when he’s nervous or considering something. The equivalent of me tugging at my hair.
