The story begins with the launching of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-B and the mysterious disappearance of Captain James T. Kirk. Then, seventy-eight years later, Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D receives a distress call from a remote scientific observatory.

Picard learns that a newly developed superweapon has been stolen by a desperate scientist with an insane plot. Facing the most difficult task of his career, Captain Picard must seek out the one person with the power to help him, a person long thought dead: Captain James T. Kirk.

Together, the two captains will be tested as they've never been before. And both men will be forced to make the greatest sacrifices of their careers to save countless millions from a madman with a plan for mass destruction.
Notes
  • As well as eight pages of black and white photographs, the book also contains an illustrated section by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens on the making of the movie.
  • The novelisation of Generations is probably one of the best demonstrations ever of the pitfalls of a novelisation being written concurrently with filming. Whereas some books have the occasional altered line or scene that gets edited out before the movie arrives on the screen, the hardback edition of Generations features an ending that was subsequently rewritten and refilmed. Even more unusual is the fact that the paperback edition was altered to incorporate the revised end to the film.

Back Cover Blurb — Pocket Books Edition (1996)
A cascade of overlapping voices, some laced with adrenalin, came over the comlink, filling the bridge of the Starship Enterprise.
     "We see it — a Borg cube on course zero mark two-one-five-"
     "We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. Resistance is futile. We are the Borg."
     A jumble of voices — punctuated by more static and ever closer explosions — followed.
     "Remodulate shield nutation!"
     "We're losing power!"
     Captain Jean-Luc Picard's strong voice cut through the cacophony. "Lieutenant Hawk. Set course for Earth. Maximum Warp.
     "Gentlemen," Picard addressed the bridge, his voice pulling in everyone around him. "I am about to commit a direct violation of our orders. Any of you who object, do so now and I'll note it in my log."
     A ripple seemed to pass over the bridge crew in the form of shared determined looks. After a heartbeat of silence, Lieutenant Commander Data turned to face the captain. "I think I speak for everyone here, sir," he said, "when I say...to hell with our orders."
     Picard permitted himself a small, bitter smile that faded at once. "Red Alert," he commanded, "All hands to battle station..."
Notes
  • The novelisation includes eight-pages of colour photographs, as well as a twenty-nine page feature on the making of the movie by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens.

Back Cover Blurb — Pocket Books
STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION is the most popular, longest-running series in science fiction history. Now, after the spectacular worldwide success of STAR TREK: FIRST CONTACT, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the Starship Enterprise return to the big screen in a thrilling new adventure that captures all the fun and excitement of STAR TREK at its best

STAR TREK: INSURRECTION reunites the hugely popular crew of STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION: Jean-Luc Picard, Starfleet's finest captain; Commander William T. Riker, his stalwart first officer; Lieutenant Commander Data, the indispensable android; Commander Deanna Troi, the empathic Betazoid counselor; Lieutenant Commander Worf, the fierce Klingon warrior; Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge, chief of engineering and Dr. Beverley Crusher, the ship's able medical officer.

Together, they have faced many challenges over the years, but nothing has prepared them for the unexpected crisis that tests both their skills and their convictions.

On an unnamed planet in a distant sector, Starfleet, in an uneasy alliance with a mysterious new alien species of unknown origin, has discovered a secret with astounding implications that could transform the future of the entire Federation. But this secret has a price that may be more than some are willing to pay.

The secret first turns Data against Starfleet, then draws Jean-Luc Picard and the Starship Enterprise into a tense and dangerous situation that has unexpected effects on every member of the crew — and presents them with an agonizing moral dilemma. Faced with orders he cannot obey and a crisis he cannot ignore, Picard finds himself torn between his conscience and his uniform.

Bestselling author J.M. Dillard has written a powerful and exciting novel based on the major motion picture directed by Jonathan Frakes ("Commander Will Riker"). STAR TREK: INSURRECTION is sure to delight audiences throughout the world.

Back Cover Blurb
The Borg went back in time to change human history, but thanks to Captain Picard and the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise, they failed...at least for now. Geordi, Riker, and Troi must make sure history continues as it should. If they fail, first contact between humans and an alien race will never be made, and the Federation will never exist.

Can they do it? Can they keep history on the right path?

Captain Jean-Luc Picard and his crew have stopped the Borg attack on Earth...or so they think. Somehow, the Borg have made it aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise, and they're trying to take over the ship. If they succeed, no one will be able to stop them from invading Earth!

Can Captain Picard stop the Borg before it's too late? Or is this the end of the Enterprise and life on Earth?
Notes
  • Second of a two-part storybook retelling of First Contact which is liberally illustrated with photographs from the movie. The part of the story dealing with Zephram Cochran's first warp-powered flight was dealt with in First Contact — Breaking the Barrier.
