Summary: If You Love Star Trek:TNG- You have to Read this Book
Review: Imzadi is a book that would move even the hardest Star Trek fans. For anyone that wanted to know the hot and steamy past of Counselor Deanna Troi and Commander Will Riker, this is the one for you!! It has the passion of a romance novel and the suspense and excitement of a Star Trek episode and movie. It's the best of both worlds

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: THE BEST AND JUICEIEST STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION BOOK.
Review: When I read this book I wasn't much of a Star Trek fan. Now because of the book I am. Thanks to the book for helping me understand Star Trek a little better. Thanks to the book I am in the process of writing my own Star Trek book called"Loves Defies Them All" It will be on the internet by next year. I hope you'll read my book. From, 17 year old writer Amy Krzyzaniak

Summary: A book perfect for avid Trek fans to read.
Review: This book is great! It utilizes the concepts of space and time, mixed in with a romance story! It also gives us a look into the passionate past between, Counselor Deanna Troi, and William Riker. This book is pretty good, and I reccomend it to anybody.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Great Star Trek
Review: Imzadi isn't just sci-fi. It's true romance. But either type of reader will enjoy it (I don't usually care about romance). While it seems implausible that two people who were able to continue their lives fulfilled without each other suddenly find they must be together, it's satisfying for the Next Gen fans who always wondered what happened to Riker and Troi and what their futures hold.
The history, I think, explains the most, and you will enjoy reading about Riker and Troi's first meeting and subsequent fledgling romance.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One Of My Favorites
Review: I've never been a great fan of Star Trek novels, but for a few years several good novels based on ST:TNG came out that I really enjoyed, Imzadi is probably one of the best. In this book, we get a look into the past hisotry of Deanna Troi and Wil Riker, their love affair, and their eventual reunion on Enterprise-D. Majel Barrett's Lwaxana Troi was a favorite of mine on the series and I always looked forward to her appearances. She and Marina Sirtis really seemed to play well together and acted so much like a real-life mother and daughter. Peter David really captures Majel's Barrett's Lwaxana in this story. She's brash, opinionated, rude, and downright funny. This is one of the few Star Trek novels I've read more than once and I enjoy it every time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best Star Trek novels
Review: This is the first adult book I read at the age of eleven and it was such an excellent read that it encouraged me to further explore into the world of books aimed at adult readers so it will always have a soft spot in my heart.

'Imazadi' mainly focuses on Will Riker and Deanna Troi, delving into their past- something we never really learnt about in the TV show- as well as showing us their present and a possible tragic future. This book really is a mixture of everything from romance to angst to, of course, science fiction.

Peter David is not only a gifted author but he has such a good grasp of the Star Trek characters, in particular Will Riker and Deanna Troi, that as you read the book, you're getting a visual sense of how it would appear on screen. The characters seemed so alive in 'Imazadi' and I think it really endeared me to Riker and Troi (who I never really liked in the TV show).

I think any Star Trek fan would love this book, especially if you love the Riker/Troi relationship and the Classic Star Trek episode 'The City On the Edge Of Forever'

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best in the series!!
Review: I really loved this book, it was the best Star Trek book I have ever read. I highly recommend it!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: All in a days work!
Review: Star Trek - The Next Generation: Imzadi written by Peter David is a classic, in the sense that the story is that of love, mystery, and of temporal events, all spun together by a master storyteller.

Commander Riker is taken on a wild ride of emotions throughout this book... from dispair, depression, and longing, to warmest love and happiness. A real roller coaster emotional ride for the reader as this story is cleverly crafted. Riker is running a Starbase in his elder years and remembering his Imzadi Deanna Troi. Imzadi is a powerful Betazoid term that describes the enduring bond of two people, in this case Riker and Troi.

As Riker gets word the Lwaxana Troi is dying. Riker makes the trip and Lwaxana lays the blame of Deanna's death, at the hands of the Sindareen, squarely on Riker. Riker's memories of a happier times comes back in his memories and Data makes a suggestion about the Guardian of Forever. It seems that the books I like the best all involve this Iconian relic of space and time... and this is no exception. It was something that Riker knew all too well, for he had stared squarely into the face of regert. There had been a time when an incarnation of Riker from the future had used the Guardian of Forever to come back in time. In that Riker's reality, Deanna Troi had died forty years previously, and he had never gotten over it. Eventually he had come to that conclusion that Deanna had been murdered and, using the Guardian, had come back it time to try to avert that calamity.

This book moves quite quickly and the character-driven dialog is spot-on. For an all encompassing and engrossing love story with a Star Trek flair, you can't go wrong with this book. This is one of Peter David's best efforts in the Trek genre.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Who would William T Riker become without his Imzadi?
Review: This is an incredible undertaking for Peter David. To delve deep into the past of William Riker and Dianna Troi's relationship, as well as an alternate future. But what lengths will Riker go to change his past, and thier future together? What lies in the past for these two....and what happened that caused them to not see or speak to each other until they met once again on the bridge of the Enterprise?

This book answers these questions and many more. Peter David has captured the charachters with accuracy and understanding. We see intense action, witty dialogue, and romance and danger. An expansive novel, this should be a part of any TNG fan's collection.
