Summary: Great story, again
Review: I was expeting this book to be a continuation of the Imzadi story line. If you've never read either Imzadi or Triangle, you are in for a treat. If you have read them, nothing new here, except for the name and the cover. Too bad, the story line has great potential for a continuation.

Summary: 2 Great Book's -- REPRINTED as one
Review: If you have already read Imzadi & Triangle: Imazdi 2, then there is very little new in this edition (a 2 page intro & a 5 page interview)If you have never read the first two, then you will really enjoy 2 great books from one of my favorite Star Trek authors.

Summary: Warning!
Review: If you haven't read the first two Imzadi books this is a great book since both are in it. If you have, that is all this book has in it. There is no continuation. I waited forever for this book thinking it would tell what leads up to their marriage in the movie only to be horribly disappointed. No offense to Mr. David but please where is the rest of the story?!

Summary: Star Trek Imzadi Forever - Two extraordinary tales!
Review: Imzadi Forever: For those that weren't able to get these two outstanding Peter David novels in hardback, this wonderful Signature Edition would make up nicely for those missing hardbacks. Star Trek "Imzadi Forever" is an assemblage of both Star Trek The Next Generation novels, "Imzadi" and "Imzadi II Triangle." These are two completely different stories, yet they both make for a wonderful and complete story between Deanna Troi, William Riker and Worf. One of the things I've enjoyed the most about these Signature Edition novels is the introductions at the beginning of the books and the interviews with Kevin Dilmore at the back of the book, both of which have been extremely informative, giving great insight into the authors'. While not canon, both of these stories play an integral part in the Star Trek The Next Generation mythos, going all the way back to the very first episode, "Encounter at Farpoint" when Captain Picard attempts to introduce his first officer and his ships counselor only to find that they've already met. These two stories also give great testament to the genius writer that Peter David is, who is not only a Star Trek author but a fan that gets to write these great stories. His writing is highly intriguing, extremely humorous and extraordinarily well paced. Imzadi As Peter David states in the introduction, "Imzadi" is his homage to the TOS episode, "City on the Edge of Forever." The premise: An older, Admiral William T. Riker that had lost his Imzadi, Deanna Troi earlier in his life when they were both serving aboard the USS Enterprise together, finds that he can no longer stand having lived his life without her and he makes his way to the Guardian of Forever to set things right... What follows from there is the incredible tale in which Peter David describes in beautiful detail how a young lieutenant named William T. Riker that is seeking the stars and life aboard a starship finds himself stationed on Betazed instead and he meets Deanna Troi who becomes the love of his life. Imzadi II Triangle: This is one of those rare Star Trek novels which I've read twice. Although there was a few years between readings, I felt that this story was somewhat lacking for a Peter David novel and that it merited a second reading and I'm glad I did so. In doing so, I gained a better understanding and appreciation for this story. Many have touted it as not being among the best of Peter David novels, I do not agree with that assessment, this story serves beautifully in telling a "necessary" tale in the Star Trek The Next Generation mythos. The premise: We first find ourselves with Worf and his dealing with the pain and anguish over the loss of his wife, Jadzia. He then begins to reflect upon his failed engagement to Deanna Troi, a story that we never saw on screen but is dealt with perfectly in this novel. From there the story rolls back a few years to just after the Enterprise is destroyed at Veridian III and the crew's subsequent evacuation. Just as Commander William T. Riker decides that he can no longer be without his Imzadi, Deanna Troi, he witnesses Worf ask for her hand in marriage and she accepts. What follows from there is another outstanding example of Peter David's skill as a writer as his plot setup, execution and pacing are perfect in telling the tale of how Worf and Deanna separated. I highly recommend this Signature Edition novel to any and all fans of Star Trek The Next Generation and Star Trek in general as you will be hard pressed to find two better stories in the genre! {ssintrepid}

Summary: David isonly writing for the money, not the story....
Review: This rather hollow and non satisfying book continues the current trend of Mr. David to be paid a lot of money to write a book, and what he delivers turns out more like a badly written soap opera script. Thanks for nothing, Mr. David.
