The hidden history of the Star Trek universe is revealed in this new series charting the seventy years between Captain Kirk's disappearance and the beginning of The Next Generation. Nearly a decade after Captain Kirk vanished, his protege, Captain Hiraku Sulu of the USS Excelsior, leads a dangerous mission into uncharted political waters. Unprecedented peace talks with the violently xenophobic Tholian Assembly trigger a deadly confrontation aboard the Excelsior. Now Sulu and his crew - including Chekov, Rand, Chapel, Tuvok, and Akaar - are thrust into an unexpected conflict between the Tholians and a mysterious new enemy, the Neyel... whose origins, if revealed, could lead to war with Earth itself. As the Tholians weave a web of vengeance, the Excelsior is flung beyond the galaxy and the crew discovers the hidden truth about the alien Neyel, forcing Sulu to question where his responsibilities lie - with the fragile peace he must preserve, or with the victims of his own world's tragic past.… (meer)

Liked this "new to me" crew and the plot set-up was interesting, but I had a lot of trouble getting into the story and found myself wishing for a better resolution at the end. Enjoyed the use of some obscure TOS episode references along with the use of the Tholians as a major antagonist. ( )

Captain Hikaru Sulu deserves more attention and he gets it in this novel by Michael A. Martin and Andy Mangels. Traversing a razor’s edge between the Tholian Assembly and the Neyal, a new and deadly enemy, Sulu and the Excelsior crew buckle their swash with distinction. Kirk would be proud of his former navigator if he weren’t dead.

From the new Star Trek Lost Era series this story is mostly set a few years after Kirk's death and 'stars' Sulu and a flock of familiar background faces aboard the Excelsior. They're attempting to make peace with the Tholians (them of Web fame that are apparently gonna appear in an Enterprise episode at some point soonish) and find the entire thing complicated by a 3rd alien group that the Tholians are at war with. There's a series of flashbacks devoted to the development of this group charting how they came to be at war. This backwards approach was quite interesting at first, looking at how unique circumstances converged to this 3 way face-off. While an interesting story and moderately enjoyable read I felt this book was too ambitious - introducing so many new characters, 2 entirely new races and a wide range of time periods that aren't previously featured in Star Trek meant that none of them were very well developed. I never really got a very good sense of life onboard Excelsior or amongst her command team, I would have preferred devoting more time to showing how Sulu's command is different to Kirk's, how he and Chekov work as captain and first officer, how Chapel runs a sickbay, more insight into Tuvok. I thought the point of the Lost Era novels would be to develope things we've only glimpsed at before and I think this was a rather missed oportunity. If you want to read a better story about Excelsior, try L.A. Graf's War Dragons, part of the Captain's Table series. ( )

One doesn't discover new lands without consenting to lose site of the shore for a very long time.
- Andre [Paul-Guillaume] Gide (1869-1951)
If it were all so simple!
IF only there were evil people somewhere
insidiously committing evil deeds,
and it were necessary only to separate them
from the rest of us and destroy them.
But the line dividing good and evil
cuts through the heart of every human being.
And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?
- Alexsandr Solzhenitsyn
