Rating: Summary: Just like the NG episode "Gambit Parts I and 2" only better! Review: A great adventure that uses the Gambit plot elements to make what could be a good episode of NG. It starts out with a constitution class vessel with Romulan technology. A pirate has taken over the ship with less than admirable aliens to pilot it. Riker and Geordi lead the away teams to disable his ship and stop his rein of terror...all in all a good novel..today it would be a two or three part saga...

Rating: Summary: One of the Best Review: A space pirate has been harassing federation shipping lanes. Picard and Co. are called in to lend a hand. They uncover a brilliant tactican using, as his base the hulk of one of the first starships. What makes this book interesting is that always in the back of your mind there is a little vocie saying "could it be the enterprise?" a great read.

Rating: Summary: Second good book from Hawke Review: Boy, Simon Hawke has done the ST universe well. This one also deals with Romulans, and their so called relatives, the K'Trall. The premise of the story is that a pirate named Blaze is pillaging Federation merchant vessels in the K'Tralli sector, and Starbase 37 under command of Captian Gruzinoz, and old friend of Picard's cannot handle the situation. Plus, Blaze has in his possession an old Constitution class ship he names Glory, and it has cloaking capability.Well, Picard and the Enterprise arrive on scene to investigate. With Gruzinov and his security officer Dorn helping, they find that the Romulans and a corrupt K'Tralli overlord, J'Drahn, are trying to get the Federation to leave their territory or break the Prime Directive by intervening. Of course, K'Tralli space is on the Federation side of the Neutral Zone. War with the Romulans seems likely, but after Riker and LaForge get captured by Blaze, things change. Very well paced novel, with good dialogue as well as land and space battles. Hope Simon & Schuster use Hawke's authorship skillks again.
Rating: Summary: Most exciting TNG book I've ever read! Review: I think that this is one of the best books I have ever read. The whole book is fast paced and exciting. I think everyone should read it.
Rating: Summary: Good read. Review: It's a space pirate novel. But it's a very good space pirate novel. It's easy to read, interesting, and if it doesn't offer surprise, well, at least it's entertaining.
Rating: Summary: Recommended. Review: Picard & Co. investigate a pirate (named Blaze) using a refitted Constitution class starship (named Glory - get it Blaze of Glory?) to raid federation shipping and wreck havoc within the Federation member K'tralli Empire. But all is not as it seems with the K'Tralli... A good read. The author does an admirable job depicting political intrigue within the K'tralli Empire and between the K'Tralli and the Romulans. I especially liked the cybrid (think cyborg, vampire, sports model with an illegal pharmacy onboard) character concept. Too bad about Lieutenant Dorn though...
