Did Rick Berman order all post-TNG era "Star Trek" movie novelizations to be written at a lowest-common-denominator level? The type of writing suitable for undemanding "Voyager" types? This one isn't anywhere NEAR the same league as the novelizations of "Star Treks I to VI"...all fabulous, deep adaptations, with layers of extra development. This is a transcription that makes Terrance Dicks' one-a-month "Doctor Who" novelizations of the late 1970s look like illuminated manuscripts! An complete di...more

Excellent novel and movie. It's great to see the differences in leadership between the original Star Trek, and The Next Generation, especially when you compare the two confrontational scenes with Soran on Veridian III. This story also gives a chance for Kirk to pass on the baton off to Picard. Thouroughly enjoyed.
J.M. Dillard writes a nice novelization of the movie but it differs in a few places. First, it includes a scene of Kirk orbital skydiving. I think that it must have been a cut scene because one of the pictures in the middle of the book is from that scene which wasn't in the actual movie. Otherwise, I like her novelizations fine. She is very descriptive.
