Great little adventure !!

I always knew Star Trek was a huge franchise and now I can see why ! I gave it a try and really I just want to stay in the Star Trek realm ! This was the first book I read, certain ain't gonna be last one ! Maybe I should have started with the original series though. Easy language & short adventure, totally worth reading !

SCE is the most disposable type of fun Star Trek fluff. Stuff happens, about half cool and half gruesome, and that's a nice way to kill an hour. Geordi is here, because you need a Named Character to launch this series of nobodies off of. He's not actually interesting in this book.

I've recently heard this type of book called "professional fan fiction" and really, it suits the style perfectly. Characters and character templates I already know and understand, few if any new ideas - it's just all plot and all action. It helps a lot that I can finish one during one day's commute as well.
