"Star Trek: The Next Generation: Q-Squared" by Peter David

Okay... it's true... I've decided to take a short break from James Patterson. My last 8 audiobooks were by James Patterson and I wanted a change.

Just after finishing "Jack and Jill" I wanted something shorter and less serious. Q-Squared was the answer...

Audible.com Summary:

In all of his travels Captain Picard has never encountered an opponent more powerful than Q, a being from another continuum that Picard encounterd on his very first mission as captain of the Starship Enterprise. In the years since, Q has returned to harass Picard and his crew. Sometimes dangerous, sometimes merely obnoxious, Q has always been mysterious and seemingly all-powerful. But now, Trelane, another member of the continuum who Captain Kirk and his crew first encountered over one hundred years ago, has tapped into an awesome power source that makes him more powerful than the combined might of the entire continuum. Q warns that, armed with this incredible power, Trelane has become unspeakably dangerous. Now Picard must get involved in an awesome struggle between super beings. And this time the stakes are not just Picard's ship, or the galaxy, or even the universe - this time the stakes are all of creation.

Star Trek audiobooks are vastly different from a James Patterson or John Grisham because they contain audio & sound effects from the show, most are abridged and are much shorter. Which works well for me just for a quick change of pace.

A good story that merges an episode from the original series and the next generation.
