About this ebook

The Borg -- half organic being and half machine, they are the most feared race in the known galaxy. In their relentless quest for technological perfection, they have destroyed entire star systems, enslaved countless peoples, and, in a single brutal attack, decimated Starfleet's mightiest vesels. Only a final desperate gambit by Captain Picard and the U.S.S. Enterprise™ crew stopped the Borg from conquering the entire Federation. And now they have returned.

Enterprise crew learns that Delcara's vengeance carries a terrible price, for once unleashed, the destructive force she commands will annihilate not only the Borg, but countess innocents as well...

Ratings and reviews

Solid TNG book. Dialogue can be a little clunky or out of character at times. Characterizations of certain phenomena get altered or muddled a bit as the story goes on. If you are looking for a novel involving the Borg, the Destiny trilogy is better but this is still good. Also, be warned this is a post-Best of Both Worlds but pre-First Contact/Voyager depiction of the Borg.
