Books like Star Trek The Next Generation - The Genesis Wave Book One by John Vornholt
A mysterious wave of energy is transforming matter across the Alpha Quadrant, creating bizarre landscapes and new life‑forms. Billions of living beings and hundreds of inhabited worlds confront the mutagenic tide as it expands toward Earth.
Captain Picard and his crew investigate the source of the wave, which is tied to the secret Genesis Device—a technology engineered to create life from nothingness and capable of rearranging matter on a planetary scale. After the device’s catastrophic failure on the Genesis Planet and the Klingon Empire’s attempt to seize its powers, Starfleet erased all records to bury its deadly secrets.
Now, with the wave threatening the future, Picard must probe deep‑buried mysteries and confront the shocking history of the Genesis Wave to determine whether humanity can survive its unleashed fury.
