About this listen

 In all of his travels Captain Jean-Luc Picard has never faced an opponent more powerful that Q, a being from another continuum that Picard encountered on his very first mission as Captain of the Starship Enterprise . In the years since, Q has returned again and again to harass Picard and his crew. Sometimes dangerous, sometimes merely obnoxious, Q has always been mysterious and seemingly all-powerful.
But this time, when Q appears, he comes to Picard for help. Apparently another member of the Q continuum has tapped into an awesome power source that makes this being more powerful than the combined might of the entire Q continuum. This renegade Q is named Trelane -- also known as the Squire of Gothos, who Captain Kirk and his crew first encountered over one hundred years ago. Q explains that, armed with this incredible power, Trelane has become unspeakably dangerous.
Now Picard must get involved in an awesome struggle between super beings. And this time the stakes are not just Picard's ship, or the galaxy, or even the universe -- this time the stakes are all of creation...© & (P)1994 Paramount Pictures, All Rights Reserved; AUDIOWORKS Is an Imprint of Simon & Schuster Audio Division, Simon & Schuster Inc.

From the original Q, John DeLancie is a natural mimic so his characters really come to life. The story harps back to the classic series when Kirk et al meet an all powerful being known as the Squire who is it turns out in this story actually a Q. DeLancies performance is really good but the annoying background music we could do without.

Great performance

Excellent listen, John de Lancie does his usual brilliant job. there's no mistaking who he's impersonating during the story ...... great story, with an interesting twist/fill in, between TOS and TNG ........ well worth getting .....

Excellent

Thoroughly enjoyed this book. Listened to whole thing in one go. Excellent voice work, reminding me completely of actors as they spoke on TV, especially Picard and Trelaine and, of course, Q. I now want to read the actual book myself and have ordered it from Amazon, along with other Q based Star Trek stories.

Excellent narration of a compelling story

Really enjoyable listen. Feels pretty abridged, though. I wish Audible would redo all of these older books with unabridged versions.

wish it were longer

Excellent narration but really intrusive and annoying sound effects and music. Disjointed story which I imagine would work far better as a TV episode. It's difficult to work out where you are and which version of the main characters you're listening to.

Disappointed
