The Star Trek TNG Cameo Character Who Finally Gets A Chance To Shine

Star Trek fans tucking into these novels will quickly find that Robin Lefler is much as they remember Ashley Judd’s onscreen character: she is still peppy and optimistic, and she still lives by “Lefler’s Laws,” a seemingly endless list of bromides she has alternately created and borrowed over the years. However, the novels also give Lefler some serious character growth, and we see her fall in love with a charismatic newcomer and even reconnect with her mother (someone with a special connection to both The Original Series and Lwaxana Troi). All told, the New Frontier novels are perfect for those who always wanted more of this beloved officer.
