This audio adaptation is based on the series finale of Star TrekR: The Next GenerationTM, the most successful syndicated show in television history. As the title suggests, "all good things" must come to an end. The crew's final adventure begins abruptly as Captain Picard announces he is inexplicably moving backward and forward through time. He soon realizes that his old nemesis, known simply as "Q," is at least partly responsible. As the plot unfolds, three different time lines emerge: one seven years in the past, where we meet old friends long gone; another 25 years in the future, where we get a glimpse of the crew's fate; and, of course, one in the present. As time collides in a desperate climax, Picard risks everything to save a condemned humanity. The story is deftly read by Jonathan Frakes, who appears as Commander Riker in the TV series. Frakes's riveting narration is accented by an impeccable depiction of Patrick Stewart's Picard. Highly recommended.

Seven years ago, Captain Jean-Luc Picard first faced the judgment of the Q Continuum -- a race of beings with God-like powers over time and space who presumed to gauge humanity's fitness to exist in the galaxy. Seven years ago they suspended judgment, but now a decision has been reached: The human race will be eliminated, not only in the present, but throughout time. Humanity will never have existed at all.
The only chance to save mankind lies with Captain Picard. An old enemy has granted him the power to revisit his life as it was seven years before, and to experience his life twenty-five years in the future. With the help of friendships that span time and space, Picard struggles to defeat the plans of the Q Continuum. But even as he fights to save the human race from total extinction, he has been set up to be the unwitting agent of mankind's destruction.
In an effort to save humanity, Picard must sacrifice himself and all those he commands and if their sacrifice fails all mankind is doomed.
