Rosetta: Enterprise: Rosetta (Star Trek: Enterprise Book 9)

I wanted to read this novel for a long time, but it took a while to find it at a reasonable price (to me).

Languages and translation fascinate me, so I love Hoshi's character, and I love the idea of being one of the early translators and interpreters that would interact with all the alien races.

That being said, I do think that Hoshi was and is underutilized. That's what interested me most about this book.

We get to see some of the work of translation and interpretation here, and we get to meet an interesting new species.

This book is long and, at times, there were lulls where I got a little bored. There was a whole side-story with Captain Archer that, honestly, I thought was unnecessary. On the whole, though, I enjoyed this book, and I enjoyed the theme of trying to communicate with a species that was wholly unlike any that we'd met before.
