Book Reviews of Star Trek Encyclopedia
Book Review: Outstanding work in capturing a Sci-Fi legend's history.
Summary: 5 Stars
The encyclopedia has found a great way to put a legend's past on paper. The written information was astounding. Everything had a neat and accountable description and reference points to that particular item's episode or movie. The pictures and drawings were fantastic! They showed the starships in complete detail. My favorite was of course the ships used be the UFP and the enemy ships at the end of the book, just prior to the index. To the Authors and staff that created this book- KUDOS !!!! It is a book I am glad to have bought and it is well worth the money.
Summary of Star Trek Encyclopedia
"A Wagon Train to the Stars." That was how writer/producer Gene Roddenberry pitched his 1964 Star Trek pilot, The Cage. More than 30 years later, his exploration continues. Across all quadrants of the galaxy, to worlds known and unknown, the Star Trek universe has expanded beyond any television creator's wildest dreams. Through four hit television series and eight epic features the cast, directors, writers and producers have remained loyal to Gene Roddenberry's original premise and Star Trek continues to blaze its own trail.
Now, the interactive reference to the entire Star Trek history -- thus far -- is available in a 4-CD-ROM set. Building on the popular Star Trek Omnipedia, this expanded database includes:
- More than 3,000 photos
- 200 video clips
- Covers the events, the races, planets & stars, weapons & tools, medical equipment and main & supporting characters from all Star trek programming:
- Star Trekt (The Original Series; all seasons)
- Star Trek: The Next Generationt (All seasons)
- Star Trek: Deep Space Ninet (Seasons 1 thru 5)
- Star Trek: Voyagert(Seasons 1 thru 3)
- Feature Films (I thru VIII)
This 4-disk set is fully interactive, featuring an engaging new interface that makes the entries accessible to the casual browser. Star Trek Encyclopedia is organized around three major sub-heads:
- Features Section
- Encyclopedia
- Episode Guide
- Search for your favorite characters and episodes or flip through the entries at random to better appreciate the most popular Science Fiction of all time.
With a delightfully obsessive hand, Michael and Denise Okuda present the minutiae of every moment from the four Star Trek series and eight films. Every planet ever visited, every food ingested, every outfit worn, and every featured character appears in The Star Trek Encyclopedia, on glossy pages with color illustrations worthy of author Michael Okuda's position as art director for the entire Star Trek universe. Even the nonfan will enjoy the endless cross-references and the secret, cohesive universe exposed in this volume, which reads like the realization of Jorge Luis Borges's dream of a fictive encyclopedia merging with the real world.
