HTML:The time has come to finally avenge the Choraii for the atrocities of the Hamlin Massacre, and Jean-Luc Picard and his crew are ready. The Hamlin Massacreâ??every Starfleet officer knows the tale. The tiny Federation outpost of Hamlin was destroyed, its entire adult population ruthlessly slaughtered, before the first defense shield could be raised. Even worse, the colony's children disappeared without a trace, abducted by the aliens who attacked with a ferocity and speed that outmatched their Starfleet pursuers.
Now, fifty years later, the Choraii ships have appeared again. But this time the Federation is ready; this time the Choraii must pay for what they need. The precious metals can only be bought with the Hamlin children still living with their captors.
This time, the Choraii must face Captain Jean-Luc Picardâ??and the crew of the starship Enterpris… (mehr)
This is by the same author as "Dreams of the Raven," and I liked it more than that book - in fact I liked it enough that I think she's one of my preferred authors. I thought that the idea of interacting with a very foreign alien presence was well developed here, as well as some of the ethical tensions and political tensions within the Federation around what to do about children who had grown up in different circumstances. I particularly liked the character of Ruthe; I found her a little transparent, but not in a bad way. And apart from a couple flourishes that probably come from the fact that it was such an early TNG extension (since when does Picard say 'Merde'?) I thought it was well in character, as well.
This story is from the early days of Star Trek: TNG, and it reads like a Season One story. And there's an awful lot of Wesley, so be warned if that kind of thing bugs you. It's a quick read, but every so often there's an expression like "a dazzling screech of light" that can bring one up short. ( )

Buchbeschreibung
Sie gehen Captain Jean-Luc Picard ganz schön auf die Nerven, die traditionsbewussten Farmer von Grzydc. Er möchte sie so schnell wie möglich auf dem Planeten Neu Oregonia absetzen. Doch dann fängt die Enterprise den Notruf des Starfleet-Raumschiffs Ferrel auf. Picard eilt der Ferrel zu Hilfe – und wird in seine erste Auseinandersetzung mit einem Schiff der Choraii verwickelt. Diese in der Galaxis nomadisierende Spezies hat eine der Föderation zumindest ebenbürtige Technologie entwickelt und bereits einige Jahrzehnte zuvor ein Massaker in der Kolonie Hamlin angerichtet.
Im buchstäblich letzten Augenblick kann die Crew der Ferrel auf die Enterprise gebeamt werden. Doch damit fangen die Probleme für Captain Picard erst an. Von dem arroganten Botschafter Deelor erfährt er, dass die Choraii die Kinder der Kolonie verschleppt haben. Deelor hat die Order, die Kinder von Hamlin zu befreien. Und für diese Mission beansprucht er den Oberbefehl über die Enterprise.
