The USS Enterprise-D crew is all that stands between two warring races intent on annihilating each other.

Book Jacket

In the middle of a routine mapping mission, Captain Picard and the crew of the Enterprise-D encounter a culture just on the edge of developing warp drive technology. When they survey the planet, they are startled by the sudden approach of thousands of spacecraft from an aggressive alien race bent on destroying this emerging culture. Now Picard has only days to resolve a conflict that has been going on for millennia. If he fails, billions will die, yet if he succeeds, he will unleash a powerful new threat to the Federation.

Plot Summary

While exploring a solar system with two destroyed class M planets, the Enterprise detectd a warp signature in a nearby star system. The source seemed to be a pre-warp civilization on the planet Nem Ma'ak Bratuna, "Last Stand."

According to the natives, they had no warp technology, and were preparation for war with the Kreen, a nomadic society that wanted to destroy them. The Kreen were rapidly approaching, and war would begin soon.

The two cultures originated rom the solar system the Enterprise had been exploring. Thousands of years ago, the Lethanta (inhabitants of Nem Ma'ak Bratuna} enslaved the Kreen. Centuries later, the Kreen revolted, and after their own world was poisoned by the Lethanta, they destroyed their world, also. The Lethanta fled to their new world, and the Kreen had been in pursuit ever since.

Captain Picard tried to mediate between the two peoples, without success. The Kreen lauched their invasion, and soon gained the advantage in the war. The Lethanta then activated their doomsday weapon, a warp field near they star, designed to wipe out their world and take the Kreen with them. With the Kreen destroyed, the other Lethanta scattered throughout the galaxy would be safe.

The Enterprise deactivated the device, and the Kreen deposed their revenge-obsessed leader and opted for peace. A small portion of the Kreen continued their search for the other Lethanta, wherver they might be.
