To Storm Heaven

By Esther Friesner

When Lelys, ambassador of the plague-ridden colony planet of Orakisa, approaches the Federation seeking help for her dying world, the U.S.S. Enterprise speeds to the rescue. Captain Picard and his crew escort the Orakisan delegation to its long-lost sister-world, Ne'elat, where the ambassador and the Away Team are initially welcomed, but then endangered. As the Enterprise officers make their way through a web of planet-wide intrigue, time is running out the people of Orakisa and the inhabitants of their sister-worlds as well.

Rummaged a bunch of the TNG books in a raid on a friend's collection. I'd read a lot of them when I was a teenager, but while I remembered my favorites, there were a bunch I didn't recognize. Doesn't mean I never read them, but any I recognize when I'm reading I'll just mark read instead. I figured since it doesn't generally matter what order these are read in, I'll just read whatever sounds appealing at the time. I don't remember the other books head hopping so much. We'll see, I'm going to read a bunch of them.
