it sounds to me like he wants the same story, told by different authors... he gripes about the exposition, location and cosmology... guess what? it's kinda
necessary for these authors to do their thing...
the technobabble about how mara got into this mess and what's necessary to get her out... it's technobable. if you don't like it, you're not a
geek... you don't have to understand it...
bell getting the runaround... well, if he's 3-omni, then obviously he knows why bell is calling and has a reason for putting her off.... if she was calling
about a volcano popping up down the street that started spewing fluffy bunnies and snowflakes, i suspect that the call would have been taken...
i could address the rest of his points, too, but since he's not going to read them, it's moot.
i liked the story and, if there was a little bit of deus ex machina to get to this point (mara has cancer of the plot), it's no different from any other
story where the enterprises's engines have a cascading antimatter containment failure that scotty/lafroge&data need 23 minutes to fix caused by a lucky
hit from a previously unknown enemy that uses pink torpedoes instead of the yellow ones they're used to...
