Recommendation for a good Reg Barclay novel?

There was a nice thread about Data novels recently, which made me buy and read "Immortal Coil". Given that success, I thought I'd ask in the same vein: What are your recommendations for good novels involving or focussing on the Reginald Barclay character in a significant way, if any?
 
There aren't a lot of Barclay novels. The one that I remember with his biggest role was John Peel's The Death of Princes.
 
Yeah, that was the one I wanted to mention, too. It's some time since I read it, but I remember that Barclay had a decent sized role in it and that I liked it.

He also had a bigger role in the Gemworld duology, those novels were kind of mediocre though IIRC.
 
He hasn't really done much in the post-Destiny Voyager novels yet, has he?
 
Unworthy, Indistinguishable from Magic he has fairly decent sized cameos...one of the short stories in the TNG Anthology is a Barclay story but I don't have it to hand....
 
Thanks for all the responses, folks :).

Don't want to read "Indistinguishable from Magic" quite yet because I'm behind by a bunch of books in the TNG series, so I think I'll try to get my hands on "The Death of Princes".

barclay had a pretty big role in the TNG novel "Dark Mirror" or I should say, Mirror Universe Barclay had a big role, as M-Picard's bodyguard/security officer.
