DISC ONE
1) Allegiance
Unbeknownst to the crew, Picard is kidnapped and replaced with an exact replica.
While in his quarters, Picard is taken from the ship by an alien energy beam and held in a room with three other hostages: Tholl, a peace-loving Mizarian; Haro, an Algolian and Starfleet Academy cadet; and Esoqq, a beast-like member of the Chalnoth race. Its a race against time for Picard to get back to the ship before the imposter does any damage to the ship ...
Advantages: Just brilliant in every way Disadvantages: None
As you can probably tell by the amount of book reviews that I post, I am an avid reader, and I do like to try a wide range of books and authors. I tend to stick to the chick-lit genre, although I do stray occasionally, but there is plenty of books in my preferred genre to keep me busy! I'm terrible in that if I don't like a book, I don't usually go back to that author. One such book was PS, I Love You by Cecelia Ahern - I hated it. But when I saw her new Christmassy looking book in the library, I thought it was worth one last try with her material.
Lou lives in Dublin, is happily married to Ruth with 2 children and has a highly paid architects job. But the one thing Lou needs more of is time. He works all the hours god sends, has been known to have the odd affair which he's hidden from his wife, and his work/life balance isn't too ...
Advantages: An adventure from start to finish. Disadvantages: Lots of description and detail.
THE GIFT
***************
The Gift is the first book in Alison Croggon's Pellinor series, which begins with The Gift and ends with The Singing. This tetralogy (or quartet, as Croggon herself refers to the books), is aimed at young adults, and is a very descriptive account of the adventures of a young girl called Maerad. The story takes place in the world of Edil-Amarandh, and the books are based on ?The Riddle of the Treesong?, or ?Naraudh Lar-Chanė? in Annaren, the language spoken in Annar, which is a region in Edil-Amarandh.

Album Notes
Ponty's mid-'80s recording THE GIFT OF TIME is ultimately one of his best of the decade. He pares his backing band to a trio, and the three make do with an intimately shared merging of instruments acoustic, electric, and electronic. The extremely well produced THE GIFT OF TIME contains a number of ravishing moments. The silken violin pluck of "Metamorphosis" and the amazing title track hark back to the glory days of ENIGMATIC OCEAN but reap far more immediate technological rewards. Ponty lays down some exquisite MIDI-violin chords, under which percussive beds gel and whorl. The atmospheres Ponty broaches with his extraordinary violin playing move subtly from melancholy to triumph to awe and back again. The band kicks out the jams in a wondrous climax. TIME is thrilling stuff from a musician who has arguably never failed to make a satisfying recording.
