Summary

 An unique and intense tale following Elim Garak as he attempts to stitch the ravaged society of Cardassia back together.

For nearly a decade Garak has longed for just one thing—to go home. Exiled on a space station, surrounded by aliens who loathe and distrust him, going back to Cardassia has been Garak's one dream. Now, finally, he is home. But home is a world whose landscape is filled with death and destruction. Desperation and dust are constant companions and luxury is a glass of clean water and a warm place to sleep.

Ironically, it is a letter from one of the aliens on that space station, Dr. Julian Bashir, that inspires Garak to look at the fabric of his life. Elim Garak has been a student, a gardener, a spy, an exile, a tailor, even a liberator. It is a life that was charted by the forces of Cardassian society with very little understanding of the person, and even less compassion.

But it is the tailor that understands who Elim Garak was, and what he could be. It is the tailor who sees the ruined fabric of Cardassia, and who knows how to bring this ravaged society back together. This is strange, because a tailor is the one thing Garak never wanted to be. But it is the tailor whom both Cardassia and Elim Garak need. It is the tailor who can put the pieces together, who can take a stitch in time.

Like many other fans, I was disappointed to find the physical book out of print and was very excited for this audiobook. Having Andrew as narrator, giving voice to Garak's thoughts, gave the whole story an extra level of authenticity that I truly enjoyed. Well worth the wait!

A charming tale of a Cardassian tailor

DS9 is by far my favourite trek show. It's something I've seen at least 10 times from start to finish. But this book made me look at Garak and the Cardassians in a totally different light. This story added layers of depth to the Cardassians that I never appreciated before.

But my highest praise goes to the author and narrator Andrew J. Robinson. He was incredible. I felt as if I had a one-on-one personal reading with him. It's like he's just talking to you alone.

Narrating a book is incredibly difficult (I talk from experience), but he made it sound effortless. I will listen to this again.

A story I never knew I needed.

Never worry about Garak’s story not being canon, a elaboration or fabrication is a truth in its own right!
I’ve wanted to read this book for such a long time but listening to it was so special, hearing Garak tell his story. Brilliant narration from AR and a look into Cardassian life.
