As fans of Star Trek: The Next Generation know, Q is the omnipotent extradimensional entity who so often causes whimsical havoc on the Starship Enterprise and elsewhere--for example, by helpfully introducing Captain Picard and his crew to the menacing Borg collective. Now this petulant demigod's first-person story is told by John de Lancie, the actor who plays Q, and Peter David, author of successful Star Trek novels. It's an irreverent romp through one bizarre scenario after another, as not only Star Trek's Federation universe but the entire multiverse of alternative timelines looks set to gurgle down a metaphysical plughole. Q's own wife and son vanish into the maelstrom, and his "Q Continuum" colleagues blither about calmly accepting apocalypse as a change from eternal tedium. Only Picard and Data the android accompany the questing Q, whose monstrous egotism and complaints that Picard never genuflects to him are barely affected when he loses his godlike powers and realizes that he may need mere humans. En route to the end of all things, they encounter other Federation characters, including Romulans, Klingons, Ferengi, and our captain's dread cyborg alter-ego, Locutus of Borg. After a fast-moving sequence of fights, wisecracks, insults, old jokes, and ultimate despair, the fate of the multiverse is ... but that would be telling. Frothy entertainment. --David Langford

Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
John De Lancie as Q is quite funny in this book; that's about all I have to say. A good, interesting book that will keep you riveted, sort of. I don't really understand the ending, though. Maybe I should read the ending again, very slowly.
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Diese Story, vorgetragen in Qs großspurigen Art, mit vielen Hinweisen auf sein Privatleben über den Verlauf der Jahrmillionen ist sicherlich interessant, wobei ihre Bedeutung allerdings vor der Kraft der sprachlichen Darstellung, die stark an Harrisons "Edelstahlratte" erinnert zurücktritt. Typisch Peter David - absolut lesenswert.

I'm glad I just borrowed and did not go out and buy this book. I was thoroughly disappointed. Just because it was co-written by an actor doesn't mean that it can't have a plot. The closest thing to a plot in this book were the stages of death. It was mostly a series of disconnected threats and\or jokes from Q. Definetly not Peter's best. What about Q-in-Law? Now that was great. If you're looking for a Q book, check out that one instead. The humor just doesn't really cut it. There were a couple of good jokes, but I think we could have seen more of the crew to a better advantage.
As far as I'm concerned, the best joke was the allusion to "The Princess Bride." In that movie there is a character played by Wallace Shawn. Wallace Shawn also plays the Grand Nagus. In the book, the Grand Nagus uses lines from the movie. HA HA.
Go out and buy Q-In-Law instead.

I.Q. A book worth it's title.
I.Q. was is a book which is clouded in what I thought was a story behind a story. The main story people will find boring, the action isn't that exciting and the entire place picard... Lesen Sie weiter...

A masterful compilation.

Although definitely a different style, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was fast paced and offbeat. Lesen Sie weiter...

I,Quit
John De Lancie should quit writing and stay with his acting. Even with the help of long-time Star Trek author Peter David, this book left a great deal to be desired. Lesen Sie weiter...
