Easily Distracted by Shiny Things

I used to be fond of the A.C. Crispin ones (Yesterday's Son and Time for Yesterday), I can remember reading Uhura's Song but not much about it, and I read a lot of the first ten or so next Generation ones, when they and the show were new and I was a dedicated watcher, too. Only one of those was much good, though - and theat fact meant I never read anything else that wasn't an Original Series book written before that date.
