Reviews

[Bruce Stephenson · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is an odd addition to the Star Trek universe in that it introduces the backstory of the characters but also the actors that portray them. Some of the backstories are interesting yet don't always seem to be based on known or familiar source material. The actor bios are perhaps of greater interest to true Trek Fans. Overall, a fun and informative read.
