A bit disappointing. That Starfleet Officer at the end of the story could've been anyone.

The first story in the book involves someone named Gilaad Ben Zoma and it's entertaining right up until the last page....
when Picard rides in and saves the day.
(yawn)
I guess you know Ben Zoma wont croak in any Stargazer books now, don't you?

Fuck: in a Federation that would take 10 years to cross at Warp six, Picard is just fucking everywehere.
More so, considering the Enterprise E apparently did not a fucking thing during the war's major battles.

*slaps the Jason fool for being too Sarcastic*

all baldy did was tell him, don't be a hero, still rounding up Jemmies, we whacked the jemmie ship, while the Vorta is realizing how punk'ed he finally was by Ben Zoma (even though you don't know who he is at first). how the fuck do you figure THAT 'Picard rides in and saves the day' ruins that story?

no answer? then STFU

It's just stupid that his old C.O. (whom he's VERY casual with) would be the one who's ship disabled the orbiting Jem'Hadar ship and was there to liberate the planet.
After all, Starfleet only has six or seven ships, so it's likely that the flagship would be out in the backwoods of the Federation to save a non-federation planet.....there's nothing better the Flagship could be doing, right?

From a DS9 storyline POV, I think there's a potential story for Enterprise E leading the fleet's assault on the Dominion Shipyards (at the same time DS9 fell to the Dominion- Enterprise could've suffered damage in the attack-making the altered look of the ship in INN plausible and explaining why it's absent from the major battles), but placing Enterprise at every major engagement- and us never hearing a word about it) is pretty dumb.

Simple: They get paid more if the E-E is where the editor or the Paramount Lackey tells you where it should be

but I agree in principle, they could have just used a generic ship and it would have been just as exciting. thing is, you and me might bitch about the E-E being there but Mrs. Joessethette Bigass buying the book for her 400 lb brat might bitch why the E-E Isn't. The most common denominator is that you make things as dumb as possible for the widest audience of stupid people... usually. Darwinism's still exist and remain in practice to some products, ensuring stupid people will continue to die for the cause
