Synopsis for Star Trek A Singular Destiny Novel - Spoilers

Features

By GustavoLeao / 00:00, 11 October 2008 / Trek Books

ComicMix posted the synopsis for the upcoming novel Star Trek A Singular Destiny, the first post-Star Trek Destiny tale written by author Keith R.A. DeCandido and on sale January 2009 (beware of spoilers).

The cataclysmic events of Star Trek Destiny have devastated known space.  Worlds have fallen.  Lives have been destroyed.  And in the uneasy weeks that follow, the survivors of the holocaust continue to be tested to the limits of their endurance.

But, strange and mysterious occurrences are destabilizing the galaxy's battle-weary Allies even further.  In the Federation, efforts to replenish diminished resources and give succor to millions of evacuees are thwarted at every turn.  On the borders of the battered Klingon Empire, the devious Kinshaya sense weakness --and opportunity.  In Romulan space, the already-fractured empire is dangerously close to civil war.

As events undermining the quadrant's attempts to heal itself become increasingly widespread, one man begins to understand what is truly unfolding.  Sonek Pran - teacher, diplomat, and sometime advisor to the Federation President - perceives a pattern in the seeming randomness.  And as each new piece of evidence falls into place, a disturbing picture encompassing half the galaxy begins to take shape, revealing a challenge to the Federation and its allies utterly unlike anything the have faced before.

The original report can be found here.

Thanks to author Jeff Ayers for the info.

Let me consult my Star Trek novel checklist...

Universal cataclysm.

Check.

Bloodshed and violence.

Check.

Elements of conspiracy or mystery.

Check.

Challenge like we've never seen before.

Check.

None of those annoying "themes" or "ideas" that Star Trek used to be about, that might distinguish it from any other sci-fi paperback.

Check.

Count me in!
