	USS Stargazer - Memory Alpha - A Wikia wiki
		He described the Stargazer as an, "overworked, underpowered vessel that was always on the verge of flying apart at the seams." When the ship's captain was mortally wounded on the bridge, Picard took command of the situation, and the vessel and saved three planets from Stellar Debries with the help of three other ships.
		Assumed destroyed in the battle, the Stargazer was found adrift in space by the Ferengi and was eventually salvaged in 2364 by the Enterprise-D.
		The Stargazer was intended to be a Constitution-class vessel, the same as Captain Kirk's Enterprise.

	Kate Rizor's First Novel is now Available from Stargazer Press
		This 192 page novel is an amazing look at a woman who has gone from newly wed debutant with all the socialite implications to down and out on the streets with no explanation of how she arrived in that life.
		At the heart of the story is a love story but the plot is interlaced in front of the reality of the streets versus the wealth and power of the position of a governor's wife.
		Between work and school, she wrote novels during nights and weekends and submitted work to literary agents and publishing houses.

	THE ROMANCE READER reviews: Stargazer by Colby Hodge
		This fast-paced novel weaves a tale of a galaxy filled with interstellar travel, a corrupted central Senate and paranormally gifted characters.
		Stargazer has a wonderful plot with several twists that while not far-fetched are very hard to predict.
		Stargazer is not an overwhelmingly erotic novel, yet the book garners an NC-17 rating due to violence and gore.

	Amazon.ca: Requiem : A Novel: Books: Michael Jan Friedman (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Although this exceptional numbered novel is today considered to be one of the early "Stargazer" novels, it is most definitely considered one of the best novels written to date by Star Trek's most prolific author Michael Jan Friedman and former Star Trek editor, Kevin Ryan.
		This novel is a pure sign of MJ Friedman's "true" genius and one of the reasons why he is Star Trek's most prolific author; he knows what the fans want to read about, primarily because he's a fan who also has the best job for a fan and the talent to back it up.
		I highly recommend this novel to any and all fans of the genre and especially to those who've read MJ Friedman's Stargazer novels and would like to read as much on Captain Picard's time as the Captain of that ship as possible.

	Archives Books, Inc. - The Valiant (Star Trek The Next Generation/Stargazer)
		If a Star Trek novel reader has ever picked up and read a Star Trek novel written by Michael Jan Friedman before and are about to pick up another, they're usually guaranteed one of the better Star Trek novels and STNG The Valiant is no exception to that rule.
		Combining the crew he created in his previous Stargazer novel "Reunion" and a small amount of the plot line he used in the "My Brother's Keeper" trilogy, he deftly crafts an excellent tale surrounding the events that lead to Jean Luc Picard becoming one of the youngest to ever make Captain in Starfleet.
		The Stargazer, captained by Captain Ruhalter with Commander Jean Luc Picard as second officer is summoned to Starbase 209.

		As with kids when they are young, Stargazer shows such promise, then when its a wee bit older it kinda goes off the rails for a while.
		The plot is pretty thin, a basic lookalike from the mirror universe jumps over to Stargazer and tries to nick their chief engineer to help in their battle against the alliance, (YES DS9 HAVE DONE THIS TYPE OF STORYLINE GOD KNOWS HOW MANY TIMES).
		In Stargazer Three, Captin Jean-Luc has to deal with an alien beaming aboard who appears a twin sister to members of his crew.

	Phigus Simenon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		On the second mission of the Stargazer, Simenon became anxious and restless, and demanded Captain Jean-Luc Picard to be sent to his homeworld Gnala.
		Gnalish mating is a ritual which consists of three teams of males competing against each other for the honour of fertilising a female's eggs.
		Later, back on the Stargazer, an agent from the "Mirror Universe", called Gerda Idun Asmund, sought to kidnap Simenon to help the crew of her version of the Stargazer (whose chief engineer had been killed), but the crew of the Stargazer prevented her schemes.

		Progenitor continues the saga of the Stargazer crew that was began with Gauntlet.

	STARTREK.COM : Transcript
		MJF: The first mention of the Stargazer was in a TNG episode called "The Battle," where Picard has terrible headaches that coincide with the appearance of his salvaged old ship.
		MJF: The Stargazer saga is sort of touched on again in "The Measure of a Man," where we meet the woman (Phillipa Louvois) from the Judge Advocate General's office who court-martialed Picard as a routine measure for his loss of the Stargazer.
		MJF: The Stargazer series takes place about 40 years before the New Frontier series, so while the characters could cross over in the New Frontier era, the series themselves would be more of a challenge to cross over.

	Star Trek: Stargazer - Enigma - Book Review
		The benefit of creating an almost totally new starship crew, as author Michael Jan Friedman has done with his Stargazer series, is that unexpected things can happen to them, and it might not necessarily all be OK by the end of the story.
		The downside of having a set of characters that is unique to a series of novels is that ideally you need to have read the previous books to fully appreciate the current one.
		In common with a lot of Star Trek novels (because there are no budgetary restrictions by way of makeup, costumes or special effects), the Stargazer crew contains a respectable number of alien life forms.

	Stargazer
		Stargazer is a story of love that thrives despite all the diversities thrown in its path.
		The Stargazer rode deep in the water under a full cargo.
		He faced a gut full of risk this last year; the remaining days at sea would be captained in safety.

	Stargazer: Gauntlet
		Stargazer has been visited before in novels, and on each occasion it was visited by Michael Jan Friedman; previously seen in The First Virtue and Valiant; the crew is seen again in the "present" day of Next Generation in Reunion.
		The pirate White Wolf is an interesting character as well, although there was a twist or two that wasn't as shocking as perhaps it should have been (I've been reading too many books, probably).
		And the interstellar obstacles in the Stargazer's path to get to the Wolf are just fun-an area of space that I'd hate to try to navigate.

	THE ROMANCE READER reviews: The Stargazer by Michele Jaffe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The dust jacket of The Stargazer states that new author Michele Jaffe has a PhD in Comparative Literature of the Renaissance.
		But settings alone can't carry a story, and The Stargazer sinks under the weight of a meandering plot and characters who are not only unlikeable, but downright stupid in their actions and thought processes.
		Ultimately, The Stargazer is a simplistic mystery and an unconvincing romance.

	Stargazer
		As much as I enjoy it, I could never silence that uneasy feeling I have that Cindy Holby, who writes futuristics as Colby Hodge, shouldn't have made it so obvious that her Shaun Phoenix is heavily inspired by the character Riddick from the movies Pitch Black and The Chronicles Of Riddick.
		Still, the pacing is very nicely done and the author tells this story in a very entertaining and breezy style that makes Stargazer an enjoyable futuristic tale despite its abundance of predictable clichés.
		Sure, many things about Stargazer are found in many futuristic novels out there, but many things about this book from hero to plot aspects are too close to those movies as well.
