Of all the myriad beings who inhabit our galaxy, none are as enigmatic (and as entertaining) as the omnipotent cosmic trickster who calls himself Q. Since the very beginning of "Star Trek: The Next Generation(R)" he has confounded Starfleet captains from one end of the Milky Way to another. Sometimes a playful mischief maker, sometimes a deadly threat to all humanity, Q is nothing if not unpredictable.

Starfleet has maintained an extensive record of all Q's bizarre manifestations, and now so can you. Here, painstakingly compiled, are the original scripts for each of Q's unforgettable encounters with the Federation.

From his memorable first appearance on the "Starship Enterprise(TM) " to his single visit to "Deep Space Nine(TM) " and his ongoing flirtations with Captain Kathryn Janeway of the "Starship Voyager(TM), The Q Chronicles" provides authentic transcripts of over a decade's worth of quintessential fun and games.

It's hard working in groups when you're omnipotent.

Q is da man!Mar 18, 1999

I love this character, he's a schmuck, but he's so damn fun, and irreprisible. When I grow up I want to join the Continuum.

This book is great. It is wonderful having access to the scripts. Being the Q nut that I am I could only give this book four starts. I was reading the episode where Amanda is involved. There is a part where Q tests here but inducing a warp core breach. He tells the crew he was responsible. They ask him what if Amanda had not been able to stop the breach, and he responds that then he would know she wasn't a Q. That part didn't appear in the transcripts.

All in all, great.

This Is The Ultimate Must-Have!Feb 28, 1999

This book is for anyone who has ever wanted to relive there favorite moments with that loveable trickster Q. He is my favorite character and I felt this book is one of the best Trek books ever published. If you've even seen one Q episode you should own this book!

Are you a fan of Q?Jan 24, 2004
By Michael Valdivielso
Do you love his wit? His cheerful smile? His omnipotence?
Well, here is the book for you - the scripts from all the times he decided to visit his friends in Star Fleet!
The book starts off with 'Encounter At Farpoint' and goes on to 'Hide And Q', 'Q Who?', 'Deja Q', 'QPid', 'True-Q', 'Tapestry', 'Q-Less', 'Death Wish', 'The Q And The Grey' and 'All Good Things'(which I think is the least interesting of all the encounters).

Great CollectionJun 10, 2002

If you are into scripts and the technical aspects of seeing production scripts as they were used - this is a good set.

If you are a fan of Star Trek:The Next Generation era, and more specificlly, a "Q" fan..this is a must.

It features all the "Q" interuptions - interventions that John De Lancie performed brilliantly throughout the run of all four series. Great writing by the authors, but more memorable is the performances as you read through this journel of script.

Very entertaining and if you watch the episodes at the same time, you'll see the subtle differneces the actors bring to their characters. Get it!
