2022 book #41. 2022. I am a big Star Trek fan. This covers the 50+ years of Star Trek shows. I didn't expect to learn much new but I was wrong! Informative and entertaining. I wouldn't recommend to someone new to ST but if you're a fan, read it.

A more in-depth book than I expected, although it retreads a lot of the same paths and thoughts of other books on Trek past and present.

The writer's style and excitement helped keep me engaged even in chapters I knew exactly what was ahead for me in reading.

Recommended unless you're such a Trek
