Star
Trek Crosswords
is a fantastic idea - and one that should have been thought
of years ago. Here, Trek fans are treated to 50 testing
puzzles that will challenge everyone from the casual fan to
the hardened Trekker. And the great part is that once you
have solved the clues that you know the answer to, then you
can have hours of fun researching the answers to those clues
you don't know.
We
have been having fun (as well as a few arguments and tears)
in the office with this. And I think this is probably the
best way to enjoy this book - with a few like-minded Trek
fans and a few beers.
I
thought I knew a lot about Star Trek (especially DS9.
But this collection really proved to me that I know nothing.
I managed to get a few answers correct, but even my gran knows
the answers to them - and she's never seen Star Trek!
Here are a selection of some of the clues... If you can guess
the answers then you're a better Trekker than I.
- a)
Medium killed by Redjac in Wolf in the Fold [TOS]
- b)
Planet where fever broke out in Hollow Pursuits [TNG]
- c)
Father of Jadzia Dax [DS9]
- d)
He played a
teenage Chakotay in Tattoo [VGR]
- e)
Twin butterfly _____ in Broken Bow [ENT]
The
only slight complaint I had was that there wasn't always an
indication of which show (DS9, TNG etc.) the
clue was linked to. In fact, it seemed to be strangely absent
from a lot of the clues.
If
you love crosswords and you are a true Trekker, then you'll
certainly want to get your hands on a copy of this.
