| 1. The Good That Men Do (Star Trek: Enterprise) | 
|
By: Andy Mangels, Michael A. Martin Publisher: Star Trek February 01, 2007
This was great! Now I don't feel so bad about how the series ended. Not only that, because of this book, and the Romulan War series that follows, a lot of ST: TOS begins to make a heck of a lot more sense. Very good.
Read it, you'll like it. ")... more

| 2. Star Trek: Enterprise: Kobayashi Maru (Star Trek : Enterprise) | 
|
By: Michael A. Martin, Andy Mangels Publisher: Star Trek August 26, 2008
Ok, short version book is 300+ pages too long. Endless pc crap that provides information about people we don't care about and don't want to. Good news is there should be a tampon dispensary on the bridge of the Columbia. Good to know that women have increased their presence from 15% in the military and with future contraceptives they cannot bail out when they get pregnant. Why was... more

| 3. Taking Wing (Star Trek: Titan, Book 1) | 
|
By: Michael A. Martin, Andy Mangels Publisher: Star Trek March 29, 2005
I've been a Start Trek fan since air. But, I never really got into the books which is an error I'm begging to correct.
One of the things that annoyed me about the various Trek series on TV is that most of the aliens are humans with extra facial bumps. As others have noted in their reviews, the crew of the Titan is anything but human. They are also anything but just a lot of humans with... more

| 4. The Red King (Star Trek: Titan, Book 2) | 
|
By: Michael A. Martin, Andy Mangels Publisher: Star Trek 2005-09
This book was something of a chore to get through. First off, the book comes hot off the heals of the first book, which wasn't terribly interesting either. Second, the story takes place in the Small Magellanic Cloud with a race apparently introduced by these authors in an obscure Lost Era novel. (I say obscure as I've read the vast majority of Trek novels, but that one was beyond my notice.) The use... more

| 5. Trill and Bajor (Worlds of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Vol. 2) | 
|
By: Andy Mangels, Michael A. Martin, J. Noah Kym Publisher: Star Trek January 25, 2005
Having liked star trek from its humble beginings i thought this book was well worth the wait, the story of trill and bajor are very well put together becouse it tells the reader all about the other planets in the federation that were affected after the story of Star Trek Deep Space Nine UNITY. Having watched star trek from the beginning i had no idea about the trill society and the fact... more

| 6. Last Full Measure (Star Trek : Enterprise) | 
|
By: Michael A. Martin Publisher: Star Trek April 25, 2006
I had heard that the new "Star Trek" movie (XI) would be using sources outside of the TV shows as Canon. (JJ Abrams made this decision - it is still contrary to the thoughts of Gene Roddenberry, but I've never understood why Roddenberry wouldn't accept some of the better written books as Canon.)
This is one of the books that is used as Canon for the new movie. It tells a story that takes... more

| 7. Cathedral (Star Trek Deep Space Nine: Mission Gamma, Book 3) | 
|
By: Michael A. Martin Publisher: Star Trek October 01, 2002
The previous Mission Gamma story, "This Gray Spirit" and "These Haunted Seas", ended with a tragedy involving Thriss, the Andorian fiancee' of ch'Thane and this novel, "Cathedral", picks up where the previous novel left off. There's also the parallel story of what is taking place among the Defiant's crew during their mission in the Gamma Quadrant. So far, both subplots are intriguing and worthy of... more

| 8. Aftermath (Star Trek) (Starfleet Corps of Engineers #29) | 
|
From: Star Trek / Simon Says Publisher: Star Trek / Simon Says November 21, 2006
I'd have preferred if they had simply stepped up the pace at which they put out mass-market paperbacks, rather than going to the Trade Paperback format in order to fit in more stories; I find trade paperbacks to have all of the worst characteristics of both mass-market paperbacks & hardcovers: they're awkward & bulky, inconvenient to carry around, like hardcovers, and they wear out quickly... more

| 9. The Sundered (Star Trek: The Lost Era, 2298) | 
|
By: Michael A. Martin Publisher: Star Trek August 01, 2003
Of late, I have been very disappointed in the overall quality of the Star Trek novels (from all series). In too many cases, the plot was too light to carry an entire novel and the writing ranged from tolerable to awful. I was pleased to hear that the publisher is planning to reduce the number of Trek novels published per month--I'm hoping that the editorial quality will improve as a result. (In addition... more

| 10. Pursuit | 
|
By: Andy Mangels, Michael A. Martin Publisher: Simon Spotlight Entertainment September 01, 2003
This book is great reading material for those fans of the TV show who just want to have more. However, be warned: It ends with a cliffhanger, and the second (and last) book of the series is not available for less than USD 200,- (used) when I last checked. Great book though... more
