Reader Review: I flat out loved this book!I used to spend a lot of time watching/reading Star Trek and this book pays tribute to all the unfortunate redshirts killed in the name of entertainment while still managing to be a great story in it's own right. Highly recommended to any SF fan and/or writers.
Ensign Andrew Dahl has just been assigned to the Universal Union Capital Ship Intrepid , flagship of the Universal Union since the year 2456. It’s a prestige posting, and Andrew is thrilled all the more to be assigned to the ship’s Xenobiology laboratory.
Life couldn’t be better…until Andrew begins to pick up on the fact that (1) every Away Mission involves some kind of lethal confrontation with alien forces, (2) the ship’s captain, its chief science officer, and the handsome Lieutenant Kerensky always survive these confrontations, and (3) at least one low-ranked crew member is, sadly, always killed.Not surprisingly, a great deal of energy below decks is expendedon avoiding, at all costs, being assigned to an Away Mission. Then Andrew stumbles on information that completely transforms his and his colleagues’ understanding of what the starship Intrepid really is…and offers them a crazy, high-risk chance to save their own lives.
At the publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management software (DRM) applied.

Moreover, lots of cool features are now being developed for the reader like advanced video and audio. ePub is now an industry standard, so all of the "non-propreitary" hardware manufacturers are now supporting it. |

absolutely brilliant.

Reviewer: A reader from BARGOED, CAERPHILLY GBR
Humourous and just generally entertaining, this is a pastiche of Galaxy Quest (the movie) and Lower Decks (The TNG Episode), with a sprinkling of existentialism and writing critique thrown in too. An all round fun light read with just a little oomph.
