About this listen

An original novel based on the acclaimed Star Trek TV series!

The USS Enterprise has been granted the simple but unavoidable honor of ferrying key guests to Betazed for a cultural ceremony. En route, sudden tragedy strikes a Federation science station on the isolated planet Kota, and Captain Jean-Luc Picard has no qualms sending William Riker, Data, and Chief Medical Officer Beverly Crusher to investigate. But what begins as routine assignments for the two parties soon descends into chaos: Picard, Worf, and Deanna Troi must grapple with a dangerous diplomatic crisis as historic artifacts are stolen in the middle of a high-profile ceremony...while nothing is as it seems on Kota. A mounting medical emergency coupled with the science station’s failing technology - and no hope of rescue - has Doctor Crusher racing against time to solve a disturbing mystery threatening the lives of all her colleagues....

Okay story, but clearly lacks TNG knowledge base.

Overall, this audiobook wasn't bad story wise. There were some big issues with the ranks of the characters. By the end of Season 7, Troi was a Commander and a line officer. La Forge was a Lieutenant Commander and a line officer. Yet Worf was center chair....

Entertaining for TNG Fans

While his character voices here are not quite as polished as in the TOS books (although his Worf is spot on), the narrator continues to be one of the best things about these audible novels.

SPOILERS: The story itself got a little wonky and drawn out as Crusher was going through dreamland, but was entertsinjng overall. It reminded me of the TNG episode "Home Soil" with its crystalline creatures that are discovered to be intelligent.

The biggest plot point left dangling, IMO, was what happened to the settlers who were going to be moved to this planet? Surely they can't go there now, but their fate was never discussed.

Classic TNG Star Trek!

This was a very well written classic Next Gen story! Just solid Star Trek, plain and simple. Welcome to season 8!

Excellent choice for TNG fans

I honestly haven’t been able to get into most Star Trek novels but this one was great! Exactly like an episode of the show & with Deanna Troi & Beverly Crusher w Worf taking the lead - and those are three of my favorite characters, too! 5/5 stars, can’t wait for more gems like this with someone who truly understands the characters and universe!

Great listen…

I always enjoy Star Trek books. Robert Petkoff is the best narrator in audio books today!

Not just the captain and first officer

I really enjoyed this book, because it gave Worf, Dr. Crusher and Troy much larger roles, and allowed their characters to take charge.

Coda

At first I didnt think this book would be a good, but I'm sure glad I listened to it. The narrator did an awesome job with the voices of the various characters. Some parts were comical, especially interactions between Picard and Deanna's mom. The story line was was great . I really like how they figured it out regarding the life forms. It was a very good listen.

A halfway decent daytime space opera episode

it was ok. story was mildly interesting. unfortunately the author missed important details l
Lt. Cmdr Data's rank. It was a decent effort. Pektoff performed masterfully. For instance: he whispered when the scene called for whispering even when the author didn't state "he whispered"

Fun adventure set in last season of TNG

It was cool seeing Worf and Diana starting their connection and having a fun mystery not involving intergalactic, stability or the precipice of annihilation.

Not what I expected but still very good.

When this book first got announced, I thought it would be a continuation in the post-Nemesis storyline that The Next Generation novels have focused on over the last few years. As in the next book after David Macks awesome Collateral Damage. It's not that at all. Apparently THAT storyline will actually be ending later this year with the Star Trek Coda trilogy. (But this new book still might have something to do with the upcoming trilogy because a place called Coda does get referenced.)

This actually takes place during season 7 of TNG, just before the series finale All Good Things. And I found that very refreshing. The last few years the only TNG books I have been reading focus on that post-Nemesis storyline. So it was nice changing it up and going back to a story that takes place during the show.

Season 7 is not my favorite season of TNG, but I think it is definitely the most underrated season and I love it. So it's nice seeing a novel that specifically focuses on that time.
