Rating: Summary: a yawner Review: Little action and less interest. This is definatly one of the poorest star trek novels yet. The formula plot has no surprises. The ending was just plain silly.
Rating: Summary: ST-TNG: To Storm Heaven Review: Star Trek - The Next Generation: TO Storm Heaven written by Esther Friesner is really a well-written book contrary to what has been said here in these reviews. If your looking for action-adventure there isn't much in this story as the main character is Geordi LaForge in this book.If you're looking for a story with imagination and a good storyline this is the book for you... no blood and guts. As this is well trodden path, a planet with a plague, the way the author puts a few twists and turns along the way into the story to keep you interested. There are Prime Directive issues in this book and there is a union of Skerrian daughterworlds along with planet-wide intrigue. All in all, I found this book to be a good fast read and it was a refreshing that we didn't have to read about space battles, but battles of a different kind as the search for the cure for a plague is found underfoot. If you want to read an intriguingly different type of story this book will be for you. I gave this book a solid 4 stars just for that reason. As interesting as the tapestry of TREK is, this book adds to the TREK universe in a positive way.
