This is the second in a Star Trek trilogy, with renegade Romulans working with the Borg.
There are some decent scenes with Data, and some interesting interactions between old TOS crew and new TNG crew.
Most of the TOS crew are not really much like themselves, except Spock, so not very “believable”. Bones is almost a caricature. Kirk and Worf have a fight that is ridiculous.
Worst of the three.
This is the first in a Star Trek trilogy, with Spock reminiscing about Kirk’s last mission, one that took place after retirement and involved an alluring woman.
The present time takes place just after Kirk’s death in the movie Generations, and is a great story of the old crew. One of the best I have ever read. There’s even a fight between Kirk and the Enterprise against his old crewmates.

Almost perfect.
Good overview from beginning to end.
A bit dated at the point of reading (1999), with some of the “new features” old hat, and as well, some of the “old features” had changed. However, the approach is light, and easy to follow, from beginning to end, and what makes this such a great resource is the CD-ROM disk that comes with it, containing some great software and sample coding to save the tired typist.

Good overview.
Instead of going through all the bits and pieces (which it does very quickly), Pirouz focused instead on some elements that spice up web pages.
A programmer wouldn’t necessarily want to use all of them, but a new designer will find some really great tips and tricks here. Definitely, a fun read as you can say to yourself, “ah-hah, so THAT’s how they do that!”.

Great resource.
