There was also the story of Data playing a part in a Baseball game that Riker created on the holodeck but didn't get to participate in. Data is trying to change the outcome. It was sorta interesting, but I always wonder why Baseball is constantly used in Star Trek. Soccer has more people playing, Football is more popular and the sports that Star Trek has invented are more interesting to hear about. If I want to hear about Baseball I can turn on many channels on the TV. But, seeing Baseball through Data's eyes was definitely different. Still, tell me more about Velocity and Parisses Squares Star Trek, I already know about Baseball.
It was a typical Star Trek Novel. Well written because it was by Michael Jan Friedman, but nothing surprising happened in it.
I liked that Crusher got the be the only additional away-team member on the planet, though I wish she had not been sidelined so quickly once she was on the planet. We all know she can handle a phaser, after all.
