Description
With an introduction by Spider Robinson The Morthans were physically and mentally superior. Descended from humans, they were now, literally, "more-than" human ... and considered the human race to be little better than animals. They would stop at nothing to conquer the remaining human-controlled worlds. Docked for repairs after a harrowing battle with a Morthan ship, Jonathan Korie and his crew discover they have a Morthan imp aboard-- a Morthan weapon so quick they have no chance of catching show more it, so clever they have no hope of outsmarting it and so deadly they have no choice but to try. show lessTags

Another entry in Gerrold’s rewrite of Star Trek, with more office politics and sex. Probably my favorite of the ones I’ve read, with the Star Wolf out of order due to invading imps (not actually funny) but still trying to save Stardock, the key human base, from the alien armada threatening it.
