About this ebook
The next novel in the Typhon Pact adventure set in the universe of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
On a diplomatic mission to the planet Andor, Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-E bear witness to the rank devastation resulting from the Borg invasion. With the reproductive issues that have long plagued the Andorian people reaching crisis level, avenues of research that at first held great promise have proven largely unhelpful, and may well indeed be worsening the problem.
Despite the Federation's seeming inability to provide assistance and growing doubt over its commitment to a staunch, longtime ally, Andorian scientists now offer renewed hope for a solution. However, many segments of Andorian society are protesting this controversial new approach, and more radical sects are beginning to make their displeasure known by any means available. In response, President Nanietta Bacco has sent the Enterprise crew and a team of diplomats and scientists to Andor to convene a summit, in the hope of demonstrating that the Federation's pledge to helping Andor is sincere.
But the Typhon Pact is watching, and their interests may very well lead the Andorian people down an even more treacherous path...

This entire story - and, indeed, the whole Andorian fertility crisis plotline - would've worked much better if it weren't a species prominently featured in the TV series. You know full bloody well they won't go extinct and that the consequences of the book's events won't last, because status quo is god when it comes to things in the show proper. That just robs the entire story of all its impact, which is a shame because it was actually pretty good otherwise.
