ST: Destiny Book Two: Mere Mortals

David Mack's book picks up where Gods of Night left off-with the crews of the Enterprise and the Aventine (under the command of Ezri Dax) ready to explore a series of subspace tunnels to seek the Borg- with Federation president Nan Bacco seeking allies to take the offensive to the Borg- and finding creative forms of persuasion-with Will Riker and the crew of the Titan trying to rescue their away team from the mysterious and advanced species, the Caeliar, an away team that includes a Deanna Troi who is in a state of medical and emotional crisis- and with Captain Erika Hernandez as the only surviving crew member of the lost pre-Federation era Columbia NX-02.
Well written and enjoyable, this book brings together different eras and crews in the ST universe without feeling forced.
Destiny concludes in Lost Souls.
