They did to test out a new recyclable saucer section that can land on the ground then be reused again. Then some bad guy decides to steal it thinking he has power now. Dumb plot

Like most Trek novels, yes. I remember that novel giving Admiral Nechayev a substantial role. Ugh.
Actually, this novel was one of my biggest beefs with many of these novels - they find these wierd, contrived ways to strip a ship of nearly all of its crew, and then go about working sci-fi miracles with it. "Ship of the Line", "Saratoga", and "Crossover", to name a few.

Think if the saucer section was the whole ship and every starfleet ship looked like that, like the Vree. I feel sick...

I hated Rogue Saucer, what a horrible piece of work. John Vornholt has gone down the drain, IMHO. Masks, Sanctuary, Containment were all good books. He was one of the few Trek writers whose books I bought. Well -- not after Rogue Saucer.

Hmmm. With the threat of a war with the Romulans, and in violation of the Treaty with them, Picard charges into the Neutral Zone ... and brings the saucer along with him. Okay -- perfect time to seperate the ship. Honestly.

I bought the book for sake of curiosty. I can see no reason why someone would steal a sucer section, unless that section could be built into an existing section. Which brings up another question, if they can do this then why steal one at all? I don't like the book and I will never read it again.
