Product Description:
AN UNTOLD TALE OF STAR TREK ® HISTORY REVEALED AT LAST.
A vicious pirate known as the Albino is cutting a deadly swath across space, creating turmoil in the Klingon Empire that threatens to spill into the Federation. But this criminal also has a secret that could shake the halls of Imperial power, and his genocidal plans against the race that bore him will have consequences even he cannot imagine, as several unlikely allies join swords to bring the Albino to justice: Hikaru Sulu of the U.S.S. Excelsior; Klingon captains Kor, Koloth, and Kang; and a hotheaded young Federation diplomat named Curzon Dax. Tempered in the flames of their shared adversity, a captaincy is forged, a Blood Oath is sworn...and a hunt begins that will stretch from one generation to the next.

Have you ever wondered why the Klingons in Star Trek (the Original Series) looked basically like swarthy humans, while in the movies and later series, they had brow ridges that wouyld have prevented them from EVER being mistaken for humans? (OK, we all know the real reason is the the original series didn't have much of a makeup budget, while the movies and later series had the budget to make their aliens look a bit more ALIEN.)

"Forged In Fire" is noted as being a novel featuring Captain Sulu and the Excelsior but it really is more of a prequel to the Deep Space Nine episode 'Blood Oath'.

Without spoiling the plot, this is a book that explains more than a few unanswered questions and plots brought up by various Trek episodes and movies. First, it's the ... Read More

On the surface, the new Captain Sulu novel, Forged in Fire, is full of a number of good ideas. How did Sulu gain command of the Excelsior? What precisely led to Curzon Dax's blood oath with Kang, Kor, and Koloth to feast on the still beating heart of the Albino'? And how did the smooth headed Klingons get their ridges back?
However, these ideas are presented in an ultimately unsatisfying way. While the ridges subplot was handled well, it didn't really fit with the overall narrative ... Read More

If you all recall the STVOY episode where Tuvok and Capt Janeway were on the Excelsior, this was supposed to be the spin off for Excelsior's own TV series, but didn't happen. This book is great on filling in the Back story of a Deep Space Nine, season 2 show where Dax teams up with 3 Klingons to fulfill a blood oath. A must read!
