Publisher Description
Quark's biggest deal -- by the actor who brings him to life!
For once, business is going well for Quark, not that anyone on Deep Space Nine™ truly appreciates his genius for finding profit in the most unlikely of circumstances. Quark is even looking forward to making the deal of a lifetime -- when he suddenly finds himself stuck right in the middle of a major dispute between Bajor and the Ferengi Alliance. It seems that the Grand Nagus is refusing to sell one of the lost Orbs of the Prophets to the Bajoran government, which has responded by banning all Ferengi activity in Bajoran space.
With diplomatic relations between the two cultures rapidly breaking down, Quark loses first his bar, then his freedom. But even penniless, he still has his cunning and his lobes, and those alone may be all he needs to come out on top -- and prevent an interstellar war!

"It's been a while since I've read this, but I remember enjoying it quite a bit. I loved the way that Armin Shimerman is able to take his experiences playing the character and really give the reader a feel for how Quark operates."

Quotes
-
“Coauthor Shimerman plays Quark on the television series, and it’s obvious he’s enjoying himself in his performance here. His portrayal of both Quark and his brother are heartfelt and gratifying…explorations of race hatred and individual dignity make this title a good choice for SF collections.”
— Library Journal -
“Shimerman skillfully mimics every character from the Deep Space Nine series…the story is well conceived and everything else about the presentation is satisfying.”

" Amusing, although the details of the climax were confusing (and I think may have been contradictory). "

" Listened to this as an audio book narrated by Armin Shimerman. This was one of the first audio books that I've ever listened to, and I found it quite enjoyable. If you like the Ferengi, this is a fun book. "
