5.0 out of 5 stars Peter David does it again!, July 1, 2002

This is another great installment to the New Frontier and the Double Helix series. Not having read the last of the Double Helix books yet, it seems that this one pretty much finishes the Double Helix???? A favorite quote from the book, Riker - "I've got to get off this ship." Peter David did an excellent job of integrating Picard and Riker into the New Frontier. It's really interesting and well done how he brought Riker and Shelby together again. That portion was done very well and even better than I'd expected another meeting of those two. Overall another great book by Peter David.

Although the plot is a little too "Star Trek saves the world", Peter David entertains us with a fast paced story filled with great character interaction, action scenes, and more background on some of the shadier sides of Star Fleet. My only critique is if the reader is not familiar with the crew of the Excalibur from the New Frontiers' series, they may get be easily confused. This is a must have for anyone enjoying the New Frontiers series right now.

Peter David has writen another amazing New Frontier story. Completely filled with twists and surprises all the way to the end. Also it has numerous familar guest stars. Particularly like the ongoing conflict between Riker and Shelby.
