ON THE BACK COVER:
COMMANDER RIKER MUST EITHER GIVE UP THE U.S.S. ENTERPRISE OR SACRIFICE HIS CAPTAIN'S LIFE.
While exploring a group of devastated class-M planets in a remote sector of space, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise is shocked to discover a group of human slaves on a forbidding, glacial world. When the slaves revolt against their human overseers, Captain Picard and his crew sympathize with the slaves plight but cannot interfere in the conflicrt.
After the revolt is a success, Captain Picard learns that both the slaves and the overseers were controlled by a mysterious bird-like race called the Tseetsk, who are coming to reclaim their property. With time running out, the rebels kidnap Captain Picard and Counsellor Troi - drawing the U.S.S. Enterprise into the middle of their deadly plan of vengeance.
I WOULD RATE THIS BOOK QUALITY AS A 9.5 (VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT).
