I'm probably going to start hunting down some of the TNG novels-which ones would everyone recommend? I'd prefer ones that DON'T have long descriptions of Picard's romantic escapades, LOL Thanks!

"The Valient" (not sure if its TNG), "Q-Squared" (VERY good), "Q-in-Law" (good), "I, Q" (strange, but cool).

There are many more good ones. I think it would be best to ask if a particular title is good or not, rather than a bulk reccomendation, since there are so many of them.

Be careful with Q-Squared. It takes place in multiple universes.


*MINOR SPOILER*




The Trek universe we know is called "Track B".

^^^Ghost ship wasn't that good. I heard it was mostly written before TNG ever aired, which means they didn't have much to work with.

i think its ok so far, but very confusing.
and i says in the back, or is it the front? but it says that based on Star Trek: TNG the series.

The Valiant was good! (listed above) and so was Ship of the Line (also listed above)!!!!
I also enjoyed crossover or crossroads I can't remember was it was called - thats a great one! Has TNG and scotty.
Micheal Jan Friedman is a good author - anything there would most likely be good! (like heart of evil)

If you like "I, Q" you'll LOVE "Q-Squared".
