Devil's Heart

By: Carter Carmen

Narrated by: Gates McFadden

The Devil's Heart -- a legendary object of unsurpassed power and mystery. Worlds that believe in magic consider it Darkness's mightiest talisman; worlds of science consider it a lost artifact of some ancient and forgotten race. Some say the Heart enables its possessor to control people's minds and to amass wealth enough for a dozen lifetimes, while others thing it capable of raising the dead, perhaps even changing the flow of time itself. But to all, the location of this fabled object has remained a mystery -- until now.
An isolated archaeological outpost has suddenly stopped responding to repeated requests for information. Sent to discover why, the U.S.S. Enterprise crew finds a devastated outpost and a dying scientist, whose last worlds fall on disbelieving ears: the Devil's Heart has been found.
Now, as the quest for the Heart unfolds, Captain Jean-Luc Picard discovers the awful truth behind all the legends and age-old secrets: Whoever holds the Devil's Heart possesses power beyond imagining...

Fun read.

I really enjoyed how this tied into passed episodes and books. A little and interesting book.

It’s was ok

The story wasn’t as good as I thought it would be, but Gates carries the story with her character portrayals which were great.

Does the cast know she's so good at their voices?

Ms McFadden was superb. I am spoiled by Jim Dale's performance of the Harry Potter books. I found Ms McFadden's performance as satisfying.

The additional music and sound effects were well-balanced, enhancing the narration.

Loved it

I believe this would have been a great episode for Star Trek TNG! Glad I have bought it. Excellent read Gates!
