Featuring fresh stories by new writers and a few contest
veterans, this collection of tales spans the entire Trek
universe from the original days of Captain Kirk and throughout
the tenures of Captains Picard, Sisko and Janeway, and back
in time again to Archer. Each of these stories explores the
past and future of Star Trek from many different perspectives...
The
seventh anthology features original Star Trek, Star Trek:
The Next Generation (TNG), Star Trek: Deep Space
Nine (DS9), Star Trek: Voyager and Enterprise
stories written by fans for fans.
The
whole idea sound ludicrous - run a competition for Star
Trek fans to write their own fiction and then the best
entries will be collected and printed in a book and sold to
other Star Trek fans. It sounds like the sort of thing
that only real geeks would buy. But, if you thought that you'd
be underestimating some very talented writers, not to mention
some very engaging story telling
While
I can understand there being seven classic Trek stories
and six TNG tales, I was a bit shocked to see more
Voyager than Deep Space Nine (four to two).
But, thankfully there is only one Enterprise effort.
As
always, this collection always surprises me. Just when I think
the writing can get no better, another volume is released
that proves me wrong. It just goes to show that there are
plenty of talented writers out there that now, thanks to Dean
Wesley Smith, can showcase their work to a wider audience.
If
you are a true Star Trek fan then you can't afford
to be without this.
