For the most part, this is a run-of-the-mill collection of Star Trek: S.C.E. stories. There's nothing particularly great, but nothing particularly terrible either. Of the "average mission" stories in here, my favorite is J. Steven York & Christina F. York's Spin, mostly for a fairly cool sf concept in the alien Strata and their gigantic ship. The best story in the book, however, is without a doubt the title story by Glenn Hauman & Aaron Rosenberg. There's two plotlines: in one, Gold has to perform the first ever Klingon/Jewish wedding when his granddaughter gets married to the son of the Klingon ambassador. Of course, this quickly gets ridiculously complicated, thanks to him trying to balance the wishes of his granddaughter, her husband-to-be, the Klingon ambassador, and his very own wife. The resolution is pretty simple, but that's just fine because the story's hilarious all the way through. The other plotline is no less entertaining, though: it features Tev and Fabian combating a malfunctioning holodeck. Business as usual, you might say, but Hauman & Rosenberg write the best, most enjoyable Tev this side of Allyn Gibson. And both plots come together in a very sweet reception scene on the da Vinci's hangar deck. A strong centerpiece for a decent collection. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Contém
These are the voyages of the U.S.S. da Vinci. Their mission: to solve the problems of the galaxy, one disaster at a time. Starfleet veteran Captain David Gold, along with his crack Starfleet Corps of Engineers team led by former Starship Enterprise(tm) engineer Commander Sonya Gomez, travel throughout the Federation and beyond to fix the unfixable, repair the irreparable, and solve the unsolvable. The S.C.E.'s missions don't always go as planned -- repairing the weather grid on the resort planet Risa turns into a deadly first contact, constructing an industrial complex on a nonaligned world leads to some startling revelations about the financier behind it, diverting a runaway ship could spell death for the crew the da Vinci didn't even know was there, and a planet in a box proves a more valuable prize than anyone could have imagined -- but their greatest challenge comes much closer to home... Captain Gold's granddaughter Esther is marrying Khor, son of Lantar, a Klingon politician. Now Gold faces what may be the greatest challenge of his career: officiating the first-ever Klingon-Jewish wedding! Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
