Date
& Chronology Information:There
are several conflicting dates in this novel, in several sections. The original
sequence is of Ensign Stiles being stranded on the Pojjana world. His rescue
takes place four years later, and then the main sequence eleven years after
that, during the mission of the Enterprise-D. Riker orders a check
of the ships log for 'three years ago' beginning on SD 41099, placing that
in the first season and the novel in the fourth season. This is also three
years after the events of "Vectors" [Pocket TNG], but aside from being
during the Cardassian occupation I have no chronology information for it.
However, the Romulan defector is said to have been murdered on Deep Space
Nine, and Deep Space Nine did not exist until 2369. So this novel must
take place during the sixth or seventh season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
However, this clashes with the 'three years' reference, unless Carey's
stardate is simply in error. Final analysis: Part One: 2354-55; Part
Two: 2358-59; Part Three: 2369-2370.

Synopsis:
Like the biological weapons they employ, a sinister conspiracy has spread
across the Alpha Quadrant and across many years of Starfleet History. Now
the mysterious menace surfaces again -- to strike at the heart of the Romulan
Empire. An artificial virus has infected the entire Romulan ruling family.
Ambassador Spock must put aside his efforts at unification to summon his
old friend, Dr. Leonard McCoy, who discovers that the only hope for a cure
lies with a long lost Romulan heir whose blood and tissues have not been
contaminated by the virus. But can the heir be found before the collapse
of a ruling dynasty throws the entire Empire into chaos?

Comments & Nitpicks:
Comment:
Another
winner from Diane Carey. This book is off the beaten path of Star Trek,
dealing with political intrigue and the nuts-and-bolts lives of many characters
who aren't as much adventurers like our main cast. The milieu of Eric Stiles
is so interesting to me, I didn't even realize that this was another big
Trek event.. the reunion of TOS and TNG cast members. If anything, this
novel could have been helped, pacing-wise, by being made into a series,
for all the interest it had for me.
Nitpick: The Lexington,
encountered by Stiles and McCoy sometime between 2358 or 2359 (depending
on interpretation of the dates) is said to be Galaxy-class. One
more reference to a Galaxy-class ship that needs to be ignored,
and the second in the Double Helix series. Carey apparently hasn't read
up on her Next Generation ship types, or she'd know there were only six
original ships of that class, the first being commissioned in 2363, and
none of them was named Lexington. Comment:
By the
way, this is the Original Series part of the Double Helix crossover, and
the dialogue between Spock and McCoy, technically guest stars, is great
as 'living legends' kind of stuff, especially as Spock tries to diffuse
the hero worship of Stiles. Nitpick: The Pocket copywriters
obviously aren't huge fans... on the book excerpt they print that this
is a 'Delta Quadrant' novel, rather than the Alpha Quadrant event that
it is.
