A review by readbyfred
Ghost Ship by Diane Carey

1.0

The portrayal of the Enterprise crew was nothing like what I remember from television. In Ghost Ship, Riker is an a**hole, LaForge is a grouch, and Picard is too stern. Dr. Crusher, Wesley, Data and Troi are okay, but only just for Troi and Data.

Worf and Tasha Yar are secondary characters whose roles are limited in the story.

In the author's defense, the book was published in 1988; probably written as the shows first season aired. The author may have had only limited knowledge of the characters. If this was the case, then she nailed Wesley and Dr. Crusher - both characters in the novel paralleled those of the TV show.
