Back Cover: Years before they
served together on board the U.S.S. Enterprise, Commander William Riker and
ship's counselor Deanna Troi had a tempestuous love affair on her home planet
of Betazed. Now, their passions have cooled and they serve together as friends.
Yet the memories of that time linger and Riker and Troi remain Imzadi - a
powerful Betazoid term that describes the enduring bond they still share. During
delicate negotiations with an aggressive race called the Sindareen Deanna Troi
mysteriously falls ill and dies. But her death is only the beginning of the
adventure for Commander Riker, an adventure that will take him across time, pit
him against one of his closest friends, and force him to choose between
Starfleet's strictest rule and the one he calls Imzadi.
This is a Star Trek: The Next Generation novel. The story
takes us through Deanna and Will’s relationship from the begin. But it doesn’t
go the way you would think. Now if you are a Star Trek fan you will know a lot
more about these characters. And this book was written before the movie in
which they had gotten married in takes place. So there may be some differences.
But the story is solid and well written. I’m not that big on reading these
books but a friend told I had to at least read this one. I have to say I’m very
glad that I did. I really enjoyed the twist on the characters. Even with the
differences it made for a great read.
