About this title

Synopsis

This reference book, designed for "Star Trek" fans, brings together all three incarnations of the Star Trek phenomenon: the original "Star Trek", "The Next Generation" and "Deep Space Nine". It contains over 5000 entries on alien races, planets and stars, weapons and tools and private jokes.

Review

With a delightfully obsessive hand, Michael and Denise Okuda present the minutiae of every moment from the four Star Trek series and eight films. Every planet ever visited, every food ingested, every outfit worn, and every featured character appears in The Star Trek Encyclopedia, on glossy pages with color illustrations worthy of author Michael Okuda's position as art director for the entire Star Trek universe. Even the nonfan will enjoy the endless cross-references and the secret, cohesive universe exposed in this volume, which reads like the realization of Jorge Luis Borges's dream of a fictive encyclopedia merging with the real world.
