''Imzadi'' is a non-canon Star Trek novel by Peter David, primarily exploring William Riker's assignment to Betazed and his early relationship with Deanna Troi. ''Imzadi'' has a complex structure, involving time travel through the Guardian of Forever, but a straightforward plot of love and rescue. Troi's history with Riker had been introduced in the pilot episode of ''Star Trek: The Next Generation'', "Encounter at Farpoint"; this also included the word ''imzadi'', a Betazoid term of endearment usually translated as "beloved". The novel expands on the meaning of ''imzadi'' when Troi explains that its literal meaning is "the first," not necessarily referring to the first sexual partner but, as Troi puts it to Riker, "the first to ever touch your soul."〔 ==Setting== *Chapters 1 to 6, an unnumbered epilogue chapter (between chapters 10 and 11), chapters 34 to 36, and chapter 44 take place in 2408. *Chapters 7 to 10, 33, and 37 to 43 take place in 2368. *Chapters 11 to 31 take place in 2359. *Chapter 32 takes place in 2364. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Imzadi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
