Set against the backdrop of Vulcan's tumultuous history, the Rihannsu people reject the oppressive logic of their homeworld. They embark on a daring journey through space, ultimately landing on a distant planet. This marks the beginning of their new civilization, which will evolve into the formidable Romulan Star Empire. The narrative explores themes of freedom, identity, and the struggle against tyranny as the Rihannsu forge their own destiny among the stars.

For over four decades, the demand for Star Trek stories has led to five television series, over seven hundred episodes, ten feature films, and an animated series. From the early short-story adaptations by James Blish in the 1960s to the original novels of the 1970s and beyond, fiction has significantly expanded the Star Trek universe. This exploration delves into why these books serve as a powerful creative outlet for some and a fresh way to engage with the Star Trek mythos for others. The work reflects on the first forty years of professionally published Star Trek fiction, showcasing the personalities and creative sensibilities of its contributors. It provides an insightful look into the creative processes, challenges, innovations, and progress within this literary landscape. Author Jeff Ayers has engaged with nearly six hundred books and interviewed over three hundred authors and editors to create a comprehensive guide to this unique publishing phenomenon. Fully illustrated with book covers, the work includes an index by title and author, as well as a detailed timeline, making it an essential resource for every fan.

THE CULMINATION OF A SAGA TWENTY-TWO YEARS IN THE MAKING.They call themselves "Rihannsu" -- the Declared. To the Federation, they are the Romulans. By any name they are adversaries as formidable as they are inscrutable. Self-exiled from Vulcan in ages past, they retain an ancient martial philosophy and a code of conduct that has sustained them through centuries of hardship, warfare, and thwarted ambition.Now their empire is gearing for war once again. Armed with the revolutionary Sunseed technology, which can destabilize entire stars, a Romulan vessel is warping toward the heart of the Federation. Its target: Earth's sun.But this offensive comes at a perilous time, as a growing number of Romulan worlds are joining a revolution -- one led by the renegade Commander Ael t'Rllaillieu of the warbird "Bloodwing," with the aid of Captain James T. Kirk of the "Starship Enterprise(TM)" and the Hamalki physicist K's't'lk, the Federation's foremost authority on Sunseed technology. As the threat to Earth looms ever larger, "Bloodwing" and "Enterprise" lead an armada toward the Romulan homeworld for a final reckoning that will decide the future of the Rihannsu people.Cover Artist: Tom Hallman

Krajní meze a Pásmo šera byly průkopníky hororových a sci-fi televizních pořadů, přenášející horor na obrazovku, což bylo do té doby doménou filmů Rogera Cormana a paperbackových románů. Dnes, kdy Star Trek a Akta X dominují televizním žebříčkům, je těžké si představit, jakou revolucí Krajní meze byly ve srovnání s tehdejšími sitcomy a dramaty, jako byl Doktor Kildare nebo Muž z UNCLE. Krajní meze byly odvážnější než současné pořady a přinesly témata, která byla v té době tabu. Například epizoda „Průzkum uskutečnitelnosti“ z konce šedesátých let obsahovala provokativní prvky, jako je sexuální obsah a narážky na holocaust, a přinesla hlubokou analýzu obětí, přičemž se dotýkala i amerického obchodu. V devadesátých letech pokračoval seriál v tomto trendu, vyzýval diváky k zamyšlení a posouval hranice. V listopadu 1996 získal podruhé cenu CableACE Award. Tato tištěná antologie přináší jak staré, tak nové příběhy od autorů jako Diane Duanová a Richard Lupoff, doplněné o příběh od Fredrica Browna.

Accompanied by two other Federation starships, Picard and his fellow captains discover a bizarre menace of unimaginable power.
