This is an absolutely excellent novelization of the TNG episode Relics. Even though the author had the original episode to work from, I'm still amazed this was written in only one month. We should all hope our NaNoWriMo efforts could be so good!
The extended scene in the holodeck was pure gold. At the time, it couldn't be done on TV - technology has advanced so much now that they might just be able to pull it off these days - but I would've paid good money to see the scene as written here.
There was plenty of expansion of various elements of the episode in these pages, which is what I crave in a good novelization. It is in fact so well expanded that rewatching the episode now might just be a letdown.
Definitely worth the read if you liked the episode or are a Scotty fan.
