Summary: ST: TNG - The Continuum: Q-Space
Comment: Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Continuum: Q-Space written by Greg Cox is an action adventure book written about the Q Continuum. The prime characters are Q and Jean-Luc Picard as Q hijacks Captain Picard on an untimate adventure with, of course, under currents to save the universe. But, this book is the set-up for a trilogy and as such works to give us some of the little known information of the mysterious realm of Q's past and we learn a few of Q's secrets.
I've always believed that Q choses Jean-Luc Picard because Picard acts like a conscience to mitigate Q's consummate outrageousness... a kind of lightening rod for all of Q's transgressions. Well, we are not disappointed here, as we find Q as a youth was rather mislead, but Q's mind has more than his usual pranks in store for Picard.
As the Enterprise and her crew prepare to breach the galactic barrier with the help of a brilliant Betazed scientist where Q's enemy lurks, this galactic story begins and takes us on a wild ride of odyssey into Q's past with the reader and Captain Jean-luc Picard in tow. There are ties with the TV series throughout the book to bring a tighter knit to the novels and the series. As the author tells the tale, the reader is propelled into the Q Continuum with "O" and the Calamarain all are omnipotent with a varing degree of omniscient power.
Greg Cox does a good job capturing Q, not as good as Peter David, but nevertheless you can get into the character flow of Q. As this book is the set-up, I hope we will receive further explaination of Q's past.

Summary: Welcome to the Continuum!
Comment: In Q-Space Greg Cox begins an excellent Star Trek trilogy. Despite some minor continuity issues that the author does not usually succumb to. On the whole, the trilogy is an absolute must read for serious Star Trek fans.
While Riker and the crew of the Enterprise are stuck dealing with the angry Calamarain, Picard is taken all throughout the history of the galaxy by Q. The villains are great in this. Without ruining the trilogy for those who have not read it, let's just say that you will really enjoy it. The only unfortunate thing at this time is that the second book in the trilogy is no longer in publication. This is something I'm hoping that Pocket Books will correct as soon as possible. Thank you to Greg Cox for one of the best Trek trilogies.

Summary: Disappointed
Comment: Well, being a long-time Trekkie (TNG is my favorite), I was quite disappointed with this book. Liked the premise, liked the characters, did not like the execution. This book, the 1st of a 3 book trilogy had way too much talk and background info for my liking. It appears the author took 1 exciting book and split it into 3 much weaker parts. Profits are the only reason I can think of why this was done.
