From learning about planets and their characteristics to colorful, detailed maps and from learning about sectors to ship paths, this book is a great reference for any level of Star Trek fan.For the hardcore Star Trek fan it might be a little lacking. I learned more about the star trek universe than I ever had before.
I found so many things from the show on the maps that I got geeked up. I would have liked to seen a few maps of the political boundaries from the original show, because I think the maps are mostly from Enterprise and TNG, but use your imagination.
Star Trek Star Charts: The complete Atlas of Star Trek is a fantastic book. I consider myself a semi-hardcore fan, and I thought this book was excellent.
So, for the less hardcore fan, I believe you will enjoy this book. It is worth it to get this book, because it contains tons of information about the galaxy in Star Trek.
If you read the negative reviews you can see what I am saying, but judge for yourself.
Book give's a vieu on how the universe looks like seen from the eyes of the Star Trek crew.It give's you an idea where you are by following the movie or dvd's Hope you can make something out of it, not used to write english.Enjoy it as mush as I do
but i recomend this book to ANY STAR TREK FAN and people who like SPACE in general since most thinks mentioned in the book are cientifically based, and very interesting. I will be brief. this book is GREAT and shows a LOT of the maps and locations of planets mentioned in the star trek series and movies , but as some reviewrs said before it has some GREAT location errors and some thinks are missin.
It was definitely a good buy. Every world from Classic Trek to Enterprise is referenced in it. This is the first Star Trek themed reference book I have bought since the Star Trek Encyclopedia. Mainly because nothing has really been up to snuff since that one and because most things were not updated to include ENT.This book is simple to use with astounding graphics.
He's been around since the seventies,worked with Andrew Probert, Rick Sternbach and Lee Cole.Kind of wish he hadn't done this, contradicts some earlier work,however I ditto Alex Rozenswieg's comments earlier here. After reading "Elim Garak"s review I had to sayGeoffery Mandel is not 'new'.
