Summary: An Enjoyable Read
Comment: I enjoyed this book, a great collection of entertaining stories - fictional first-hand accounts of some of the more spectacular points of the Star Trek universe. Some of the layout design artwork was very intriguing. Agreed, it would make a good "coffee table book," but that's not all that it is. Great for any Star Trek fan, or anyone bored or in need of some enjoyable reading material.

Summary: Great coffee table book
Comment: I can't figure out what's better, the art by various artists, or the excellent stories by Michael Jan Friedman. There's a story on practically every established alien race on Star Trek, ever! If you haven't got this book yet, get it!

Summary: A "National Geographic" for Star Trek
Comment: What if "National Geographic" ("Interstellar Geographic?") were still published in Star Trek's time? You might get something like this gorgeous oversized coffee-table book--a National Geographic-style study of Star Trek's brave new worlds and new civilizations. From a first-person account of trekking across Vulcan's Forge, to a visit to the devastated but under-construction Starfleet Academy, to the mysterious Q Continuum, this series of gorgeously illustrated essays treats the Trek universe through the eyes of (and in the style of) science writers and travel essayists, showing the ordinary Joe (and Jane and Q'yxk) of the 24th century about the worlds of their vast Federation. An eclectic and attractive mix of illustrators (I especially enjoyed the work of Dave McKean, better known for his "Sandman" covers) makes this a true illustrated treat in the vein of all those oversized National Geographic books. While there might be some quibbling among Trek fans about the pieces included (would the Federation really let information out to the general public on Q, or the Guardian of Forever?), every section is a delight and a great gift for the Trek fan.
