"The seventh time Captain Jean-Luc Picard saw the Enterprise...."

(I kid you not.)

"The first time that Jean-Luc Picard walked the corridors of the Enterprise...."
"The first time Captain Jean-Luc Picard stepped onto the bridge of the starship Enterprise..."
"JEAN-LUC PICARD quickly stopped counting how many times he stepped onto the bridge of the Enterprise."

(WTF...)

And this first book in the TNG series costs like €15. Fat chance.
The quality of the writing/stories varies with the author. There are some good books.
