Well that's cute. The stories' ideas are intelligent, and the characters are themselves. The art is awful though, so much so that I have to take a star off for that. And of course very short stories are not fully satisfying. But if your library happens to have a copy of this and you need a quick TOS fix, have fun.
A fun enough read, not very deep but the style is different. Worth reading since it's quick and entertaining. Really I want to rate it 3.5 but I'll round up to be nice.
A collection of short stories aboard the Star Ship Enterprise. I enjoyed the first one because of the surprise ending. But the last one was too predictable.
