Packed with colour stills and other images, here are the most epic episodes from the original series and Star Trek: The Next Generation. A big glossy softback Titan publication in which interviews were originally printed in Star Trek Magazine, some of which date back almost 20 years. Where no man has gone before, we speed through space and recollect the Doomsday Machine, Operation Annihilate, Three is A Magic Number: Kirk, Spock, McCoy. There is a Gene L. Coon tribute, a Khan Noonien Singh profile, a look at Kirk and Picard, the making of The Next Generation, and interviews with Leonard Nimoy and William Shatner, D. C. Fontana, Patrick Stewart, Brent Spiner and other luminaries. The collection explores such classics as 'Space Seed', 'The City on the Edge of Forever', 'Yesterday's Enterprise', and 'When the Cast Gets Naked', of which the cast had a low opinion of the episode. Captain Kirk finds true love in 'The Paradise Syndrome', one of the most heart-breaking voyages of the original Enterprise which provides an interesting twist on Hodgkin's theory as an outside influence actively moves an entire culture to another world without its knowledge. The mission seems simple enough - use the Enterprise's deflector beam to save a Class-M planet from an approaching asteroid. But on the planet they discover a village impossibly populated by a tribe of Native Americans from Earth. Recall dozens of classic episodes and images from both generations in this beautifully produced big album of 176 pages. Extra large sized softback, glossy colour images.
