The U.S.S. Enterprise's most deadly foe returns!

From the book jacket: The Borg – half organic being and half machine, they are the most feared race in the known galaxy. In their relentless quest for technological perfection, they have destroyed entire star systems, enslaved countless peoples, and, in a single brutal attack, decimated Starfleet's mightiest vessels. Only a final desperate gambit by Captain Picard and the U.S.S. Enterprise crew stopped the Borg from conquering the entire Federation. And now they have returned.

Years after Wolf 359, when the Federation successfully fought off a Borg invasion, Picard must go face to face with them again.

This novel indicates that the planet killer from TOS: "The Doomsday Machine" was designed to combat the Borg; destroying dead planets left in the Borg's wake and then using its anti-proton beam to destroy encountered Borg cubes.
Referencing the episode Tholian Web, Tholinas and specifically character of commander Loskene appear. Loskene is presonally annoyed by another Enterprise and Loskene asks if Spock is on the ship. Strangely, Picard thinks how Tholians are unaware of humanoid lifespan, indicating that Spock is already dead which will of course be proved untrue by Unification.

Argyle, who previously appeared in Pocket TNG: Metamorphosis, appears next in comic books of the DC TNG volume 2 series.

Excelsior class starship of Captain Morgan Korsmo.

USS Curie

Rescue ship of Commodore (Dr.) Terman.

Phantom Cruiser

Ship where Captain Reannon Bonaventure assimilated by Borg

The story of the Phantom Cruiser and Capt. Bonaventure are superficially very similar to the later character Seven of Nine and the USS Raven.
