Luca Mauri Male. Italy

The book is another classic adventure, something halfway between The Best of Both Worlds and First Contact.
It incorporate the usual struggle between Enterprise crew and a Borg Cube drones with the addition of a new Queen that our heroes must stop.
The back story of the novel is the integration of new crew members aboard Enterprise and an important decision that will change the career of Worf.
The result is a pretty decent TNG book, full of good ideas, but that lacks of depths both in characters development and history details.

The good thing about Star Trek novel is that the paper medium allows writer more space, more time and more resources to tell a story than a costly TV production.
This book is a collection of short stories about TNG characters: that fact already wastes the strongest point of any books. Beside this, all stories appears just drafts of possible stories to be developed. Everything is rushed and approximate. The most part of the stories are plain bad, the others are too short to be of any interest. Probably the only worthy story is the very last one: it is intriguing and it is fit for the short space.
