I started this book and couldn't put it down. I felt it was written with all the elements needed for a great story, even for adults to read. It was sad, joyful, suspenseful, had an interesting character development, was positive yet realistic. I have decided to read this book to a group of teenagers (14-16 year old) because it teaches values in a sports setting without being mushy. Great book for anyone.

This story about Deanna Troi is the one of the best in the series! This story tells about Deanna's troubles with being empathic. She decides to take the Borrocco-Kai or the big washout and she succedes. Her mother (who is a full telapath) finally figures out that her daughter is old enough to handle the stress. Tis story also tells of Troi's decision to be a counseler on one of those new galaxy-class starships.

This is a wonderful story of growing up and having struggles and dreams and finding solutions. It is an engrosing story all the way through. Everyone should read it. Adults and youth alike.

I enjoyed this book because it was fun to understand a little about what the people I know from the seris went through as a person my age.

I believe that this was a very good book because I like to learn about my favorite charater, Deanna Troi. She learned a very important lesson about aliens. I am only 12, but I know a good book when I see one. -Elizabeth Keeler

I really loved this very charming book; it is a book every young person (boys and girls) should read, whether or not they play soccer. it is a heartwarming story of real human values and teamwork. it has the best possible ending. no fairy tale, but a lot of satisfaction, drama and somehow all sides come out winners. comments by Gayle Cooper sent by Wayne.
