A Stitch in Time

By: Andrew J. Robinson

Narrated by: Andrew J. Robinson

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.

How is this so good.

I cannot understand how this book is so good. From what I read this was written by the actor as kind of a journal to get him into character???? So good I wish he wrote more.

One of the best sci-fi books of all times

Fantastic book, a true delight listen.
It is inspiring and thought provoking, has a deepness rarely found.

I don't think that one must have seen Deep Space 9 to enjoy this book, however it helps.
But can also be a good starting point for DS9.

This book is easily one of the best sci-fi books of all times.

Well done.

Really well worth the time to listen. It was a great joy to me being a fan of Deep Space Nine to hear it in the voice of my favorite character from the series. Well done and thank you Mr. Robinson.

Hands down the best Star Trek book I've ever read.

Any fan of DS9 will absolutely love this. Robinson gives an incredible performance and brings Garak more to life than ever before. I would be thrilled if he ever wrote a sequel.

Great Gift to Fans of DS9 & Our Favorite Tailor

What a great gift to die hard fans of Deep Space Nine and Garak epically written and read by the man himself!

I only wished there was more of it. I could listen to his voice forever.

If you, like me, did not get enough plain, simple Garak from the show, you simply must get this audio book.
