The first book in that trilogy is pretty good. Not too crazy about the follow-ups. They all (sorta) spring from a novel called Immortal Coil by Jeffrey Lang. It's very "small universe" but entertaining.
Edit: the writers definitely know about the novels because they are using some stuff from the old Diane Duane Romulan books too. Specifically the fact that they have secret names.

I never got into any of the books at all. I have a collection of favorite sci-fi writers that I have stuck to over the decades and I get all pissy when I come across a writer that doesn't measure up to them in my mind, the flow is just off in my head and I can't enjoy it. To the point that even if it's a good story or idea that interests me I just get too frustrated and put the book back down. So, I'm sure I've missed out on some good stuff over the years. Thanks for tying that in. I had no idea.
