Star Trek: The Next Generation – Gulliver’s Fugitives (1990) – Keith Sharee
It’s been a bit since I read a Next Gen novel, but I do like spending time with the Enterprise D and her crew.

Star Trek: The Next Generation – A Rock and a Hard Place (1990) – Peter David
There’s a couple of minor things that stick in my craw about Peter David’s A Rock and a Hard Place, but none of them detract from my enjoyment of the book which actually reads, and feels a lot like n actual episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. Despite the art on the cover showing…
