A few months ago I blogged about Peter David’s new Star Trek The Next Generation novel, Before Dishonor. Back in March, thanks to Voyages Of Imagination, readers could view the confusing cover picture, which clearly states it is a TNG novel, but also clearly has Seven Of Nine featured front and center. I was intrigued; I have enjoyed David’s Star Trek novels in the past, especially his previous take on The Borg. Thanks to TrekWeb, we now have a synopsis for Before Dishonor:

To the disbelief of Starfleet Command, and especially of Admiral Janeway, the Borg were not vanquished when the USS Voyager destroyed their transwarp conduits. A disabled Borg cube seems to hold the answers to why the Borg are now striking out and killing, without troubling to assimilate their prey. Admiral Janeway, Seven of Nine and a team of Federation scientists know they don’t have much time to stop the threat. Meanwhile Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the USS Enterprise, who barely defeated the Borg who were trapped in Federation space, turn to Ambassador Spock for help. Can they discover what lies behind these strange and chilling developments before the Borg can make their triumphant return?

The Borg, Spock, and Captain Picard? Sounds pretty interesting to me. Although Voyager did everything seemingly possible to neuter The Borg and ruin Star Trek, I do have some faith in David being able to put together a compelling novel.
