Product Description:
In the future, a heroic captain and his crew explore the Galaxy in a really fast spacecraft. The crew's standing orders are:"...to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before."™
Simple, straightforward -- that's Star Trek.® So what's all the fuss? Why do news crews always seem to find someone, somewhere dressed up in a Star Trek costume? What could be so interesting to so many people?
Star Trek 101 is the answer. You'll learn just a little about the heroes (Captain Kirk believes that man wasn't meant to live in paradise), the villains (Klingons have a thirst for conquest), and the important aliens (Vulcans live their lives by logic). In the handy recaps for all things Star Trek, you'll discover that the television shows and movies run the gamut from action-adventure to comedy. Just want to sample? The ten essential episodes are offered for your consideration. Star Trek 101 is a quick primer of the television shows and movies that carry the Star Trek name.

I love Star Trek but i'm most familiar with the Classic Trek and Next Generation. I picked up this book not from Amazon but from The Sci Fi museum in Seattle. I have to say I like this book,it is a quick read though, I skipped the section of the episodes but it helped me to fill in any gaps or questions I might have about later series and what they are, any episodes to look out for, and the introduction of new characters.
The book is separated into 7 chapters, each series has its own ... Read More

This book contains a solid overview of all things STAR TREK. The volume summarizes all of the series and movies, including all the major characters, many of the recurring characters, the various races, the ships, and other odds and ends. There are also brief summaries of every episode and lists of the key episodes. All of this is very well done and I can't complain about the product.
But who is the book for? Virtually anyone who has seen the various STAR TREK series will know just ... Read More

I have been a Star Trek fan for only five years, but I still don't know everything there is to know about Star Trek. The franchise is so huge, it is nice to have this book as a reminder on certain things. This book gives you the basics, but also has a nice episode guide and some great pictures. It also gives a top 10 must see episode list for each series, most of which I agree with. With that, it also tells you what the worst episode of the series is. It's all opinion when it comes to that, but the ... Read More

Unless someone's been in a cave for the last 40 years, they should have a passing knowledge of Gene Roddenberry's creation and its myriad permutations. It's amazing that, from one failed TV series, a horde of follow-on shows, movies, merchandising, etc. has evolved. Who would have thunk it back in 1968!?!
STAR TREK 101 revisits the Star Trek world, detailing all the series and movies produced over the years. The book supplies information on the cast of characters, episode guides, essential ... Read More

This book is little more than a basic episode guide for all Star Trek series and includes the movies as well. There's some trivia in the book but it's all fairly bland. If you're looking for an episode guide for every Trek series, this is for you. Other than that, there's little to recommend about this book.
