4 out of 5 stars A great read on the making of a Star Trek movie........1999-02-26

This book, "Captain's Log: William Shatner's Personal Account on the Making of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier" by Lisabeth Shatner (William Shatner's daughter, who was on the film's set & location shoots) is an excellent read on the making of a Star Trek movie. This book details the accounts on what lead star, co-writer, & director of Star Trek V, William Shatner, went through making this movie. Although this fifth movie is best remembered as not one of the best in the Star Trek film series, this book details the process on the making of a feature film. This book also includes details on the originally planned ending that had to be changed. Featuring interviews with the cast & crew, as well as 16 pages of photos, "Captain's Log" is an excellent read. For Star Trek fans as well as anyone interested on the process of filmmaking.

5 out of 5 stars Enjoyable, lite science reading.......2002-01-07

It is an interesting book and is easy to read. It is broken up into chapters, and in each chapter is a one to two page sections on a particular subject like telepathy. It hits a wide area of subjects.

Andre Bormanis, science advisor for the Star Trek franchise, explains the science in broad layman's terms, but enough to explain the basics and the logic behind what the team did.

I enjoyed reading it even with a sever lack of previous knowledge in some of the areas. It gave a neat look into the why they handle the science on the show. If you don't have too much time to sit down and read or you just want to have something to read during the commercials, this is an good book to have.

5 out of 5 stars good to pick up on a wet day.......1999-08-12

great b/w picks and lot of links from star trek to the really worl

5 out of 5 stars A great book on the real science of Star Trek.......1998-05-28

I liked this book. I haven't read much other Star Trek books, so I don't have much to compare to. I really liked the authors easy, concise explanations for things like warp drive, wormholes, alien biology, time... all the favorite sciences, and what's real and what's not! The segments are based on accounts from specific episodes with "science logs" from favorite Star Fleet personelle. The photo's and such add a nice touch as well. In short, if you like Star Trek, and ever wondered if what you saw was possible, I highly recommend this book. The science-minded will love it!

3 out of 5 stars Some good bits, some bad bits........2000-08-03

When this book is good, it's very good. When it's bad, it isn't awful, so on the whole, I suppose it isn't too bad. But it definitely has some weak points.

The "Star Trek Log..." series is a series of adaptations of the animated "Star Trek" series. This is the last of the series. The episode this book recounts is "Slaver Weapon", a story written by Larry Niven. One of the plus sides to this story is that, being written by Niven, we get a kzinti crossover. It's interesting to see the kzinti interact with the crew of the Enterprise. (For those not in the know, the kzinti are an alien race from Niven's writing, who resemble large bipedal cats and who are a warrior culture not unlike the klingons; the only thing that has kept them from taking over the known galaxy and enslaving humanity is that, being self-styled mighty warriors, they ALWAYS attack before they're ready. Suitable caution would be cowardly and dishonorable.)

Another interesting subplot in this book occurs when Kirk, Spock, Sulu, and Uhura have their personalities switched due to a transporter accident. Kirk finds himself in Sulu's body, Sulu in Spock's, Spock in Uhura's, Uhura in Kirk's. This happens, of course, immediately prior to a major diplomatic session, so the victims can't simply hide out in their quarters until the problem is ironed out. This was a clever plot complication, and it was handled well.

The bad news is, we have a reappearance of Captain Kumara, the Klingon who, according to the episode adapted in "Log Seven", knew Kirk well from their days in a failed "Interspecies Academy", an attempt at detente between the Klingons and the Federation when the two captains were both younger, junior officers. As I said in my review of "Log Seven", this "Interspecies Academy" never happened; something that major would have HAD to have been mentioned in the original series episodes involving Klingons, and it wasn't. Therefore, it is impossible, as is Kumara and his almost-friendly rivalry with Kirk.

Not a bad book, certainly. It's well-written, and handles the known characters well. If you like Star Trek, read it. If you're new to Star Trek, it's not the best book to start with.

    5 out of 5 stars Enterprise Logs - Fascinating and well told stories!.......2003-07-21

    From the colonial shores of America during the revolutionary war to the southern Pacific ocean in the embroiled second world war to the farthest reaches of the galaxy the proud name Enterprise has born the banner of honor, freedom and justice, conveying humanities best to friend and foe alike. In these pages you will find ten exceptional, intriguing and truly inspirational short stories written by several of Star Trek's finest authors. Along with the exceptional stories contained within the pages of this exceptional anthology there is a brief bio of the author telling each story.

    Captain Israel Daniel Dickenson commanding the Sloop-of-War Enterprise
    The Veil at Valcour by Diane Carey - Given her extensive experience with sailing ships of this time period, very few authors could've taken on the task of telling this wonderful story about the Sloop-of-War Enterprise, a ship seized by colonial sailors from the British during the American Revolutionary war. Although I have little clue of the majority of the terminology used in this story, I found the story itself to be truly inspirational.

    Captain Osborne B. Hardison commanding the U.S.S. Enterprise
    World of Strangers by Diane Carey - Here, Diane Carey takes on the task of telling a brief story of the USS Enterprise during WWII in the Pacific. She takes and accomplishes that task quite well as she turns not so much to telling the tale of the combat itself but to the human side of the equation and the terrible sacrifices and loss this war brought on. Only one minor point of contention on my part, military time doesn't work as it is portrayed in this great story.

    Captain Robert April commanding the USS Enterprise NCC-1701
    Though Hell Should Bar the Way by Greg Cox - Having read every Trek novel written by this author up to the date of this publication, I believe I can say unequivocally that Greg Cox's stories in the Star Trek universe are absolutely exceptional and a complete joy to read! In this short story we meet Captain Robert April as he's leading his ship and crew at breakneck speed to get to Tarsus IV in time before a famine starts taking lives. Along the way though, they encounter Klingon commander Kor and his orders to stop any and all Federation vessels from approaching Tarsus IV.

    Captain Christopher Pike commanding the USS Enterprise NCC-1701
    Conflicting Natures by Jerry Oltion - I've only had the please so far of reading one of Jerry Oltion's previous stories, but I can definitely say now that he has an excellent writing style that I enjoy. Here he tells the hilarious story of Captain Pike, after engaging Klingons having to pick up an Eremoid that wishes to "observe" the crew in their day to day routine. The camaraderie of the crew really sticks out in this one.

    Captain James T. Kirk commanding the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 & NCC-1701-A
    The Avenger by Michael Jan Friedman - Star Trek's most prolific author proffers up this tale of Captain Kirk on a mission to see that peace talks between the Draqqi and the Iach'tu end successfully. Early in his career, Kirk had been briefly stationed on Draqqana and of course, there is a woman involved. There is a murder of a high profile Draqqi in the midst of the peace talks and Kirk pairs up with that woman who is now the chief Draqqi investigator. This story is in quite good keeping with Michael Jan Friedman's excellent style of writing.

    Captain Will Decker commanding the USS Enterprise NCC-1701
    Night Whispers by Diane Duane - Although it had been quite some time since Diane Duane had visited Gene Roddenberry's universe, with this story she makes an excellent return. We visit Captain Will Decker as he is in the process of overseeing the refit of the USS Enterprise right before the events depicted in Star Trek The Motion Picture. Here, Captain Decker must solve the puzzle of some strange script written into the LCARS computer system recently installed on the Enterprise.

    Captain Spock commanding the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-A
    Just Another Little Training Cruise by A. C. Crispin - This fine author had also taken a lengthy respite from Gene Roddenberry's universe and makes a triumphant return with this outstanding story. Here she tells the tale of Spock, the Captain of the Enterprise as she is being used as an Academy training vessel and the beginnings of his "feelings" toward Saavik. We learn when and where they met and this tale beautifully sets up the events in the exceptional novel, "Vulcan's Heart" by Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz.

    Captain John Harriman commanding the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-B
    Shakedown by Peter David - As one of Star Trek's premier authors, Peter David's stories are well told, thought provoking, captivating, humorous and oft times, quite compelling as is the case with this outstanding story of Captain Harriman. "Somehow" he's been captured by the Romulans and is being interrogated by Rokan, the Tal Shiar's top interrogator. As is with the majority of Peter David's work, this story was a true pleasure to read.

    Captain Rachel Garret commanding the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-C
    Hour of Fire by Robert Greenberger - In this exciting and invigorating tale, Robert Greenberger takes us to a point early in Captain Rachel Garret's command of the Enterprise. She and the Enterprise are on a mission to find an M Class planet for a race known as the Warin. What is especially poignant about this story is her interaction with the crew and then how that crew deals with the emergency that arises. This story was extremely enjoyable.

    Captain Jean Luc Picard commanding the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D & NCC-1701-E
    The Captain and the King by John Vornholt - One of the best series of books to have come out to date was the Captain's Table series and this story is a real treat as John Vornholt revisits this mythical place. This is an interesting tale of how Picard helped a "would be" King of Andoria make the ultimate sacrifice. {ssintrepid}

    5 out of 5 stars ST: Enterprise Logs.......2002-05-19

    Star Trek: Enterprise Logs edited by Carol Greenberg is an anthology of adventure and exploration spanning six centuries and ten captains of one proud tradition the appellation known as Enterprise. I found that this book to be both historical and imaginative. Historical in the sense that one Enterpise fought in the Revolutionary War for America's freedom to the command of Jean-Luc Picard on U.S.S. Enterprise 1701-D.

    This book covers both seafaring to spacefaring vessels all with the same name and a compelling story with each captain trusted to bring her to battle and back home again. As this is an anthology, the captains are very interesting to read about. Captains Irrael Daniel Dickerson, Osborne B. Hardison, Robert April, Christopher Pike, James T. Kirk, Will Decker, Spock, John Harriman, Rachel Garrett and Jean-Luc Picard are all accounted for here with an interesting tale to tell about the ship they command.

    Since this is an anthology we have different authors lending their expertise to each story giving the reader a feel that each captain is speaking. The authors are: Diane Carey, Greg Cox, Jerry Oltion, Michael Jan Friedman, Diane Duane, A.C. Crispin, Peter David, Robert Greenberger, and John Vorholt.

    I found this book to be very enjoyable, readable with a flowing narrative, and intriguingly engrossing. The first two stories were right out of America History focusing on the captain of the ship, thus, giving the reader insights into the noteworthiness of these historical figures. As the other stories, imagination rules the story with a heavy dose of the humanity.

    The book is a very fast read with enjoyable adventure.

    4 out of 5 stars Just the perfect book while cooling your heels..........2001-05-31

    ...stuck on jury duty (sigh). Read this last summer (2000) and enjoyed practically all the submissions tracing the history of the Enterprise Captains, from the first Enterprise (during the Revolutionary War) to Picard. Some very imaginative entries, including Capt. Harriman (Enterprise-B) and Capt. Garrett (Enterprise-C). Highly recommended...

    2 out of 5 stars I was disappointed in this book :-(.......2001-01-04

    I found this book when I was buying the Captains table book. It was one of those, "if you like this, you'll like these too" lists Amazon gives us. Hey! It looked great! Pictures of three Starships, a Revolutionary war schooner, and a Aircraft Carrier! "The History of the Enterprise!" It says. I am a Star Trek Fan. I have been from when I was very young. I watch and read Trek books for the adventure and action. There is very little of that in these stories. These stories seem to be morality plays more than adventure stories. I feel it only deserves 2 stars because only 2 of the stories in this book are OK. And they are stories about the Starship captains you hardly ever hear about. Lastly, these are extremely short, short stories. Not barely worth the price. Before you buy on-line, go see it in a store, and look it over and read some of it. Then decide.

    4 out of 5 stars The history of the past and the future!.......2000-09-30

    Since reading stories about Captain April and briefly viewing captains Pike, Decker, Harriman, and Garrett, I have wanted to know more about them. "Enterprise Logs" does not disappoint. The tales of Decker and Harriman (especially the latter) were the most enjoyable (5 stars). Garrett's story was close behind. And, although I read little non-fiction, I found the based-on-fact stories on captains Dickenson and Hardison to be entertaining and exciting (4 stars). I found the stories of Kirk and Picard, the ones of whom we are most knowledgeable, to be weakest yet worthy of reading. I am not a fan of the "Captains' Table" books as I find it difficult to imagine Picard telling war stories, even to his equals; still, the story was very good (3 1/2 stars). Read it and enjoy the history of the past and the future!

          Book Description

          “SPACE. THE FINAL FRONTIER . . . These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise™.” Celebrate the fortieth anniversary of Star Trek® with the original mission logs chronicling some of the crew’s most bizarre missions and strangest encounters with alien races across the galaxy . . . where no man has gone before™.

          The Counter-Clock Incident
          The Enterprise’s first captain, Commodore Robert April, is aboard the starship one last time en route to his retirement ceremonies. On the way, Kirk attempts to save an alien ship headed straight for the Beta Niobe Nova.

          Instead, the Enterprise plunges through the heart of the nova and into an alternate universe where everything runs backward. Day is night, stars are black not white, and time flows into the past as people get younger with every breath they take.

          The Eye of the Beholder
          When the Enterprise is sent to investigate a missing starship near Lactran VII, Kirk beams down to discover the Lactrans are giant, highly intelligent slugs, who admire humans for one reason: they make lovely pets.

          The situation appears hopeless when the landing party is locked up as exhibits in the planet’s zoo. Amazingly, Spock manages to convince the Lactrans that humans are not dumb animals and they agree to let the crew go–on one condition. Kirk and company must become interstellar big-game hunters and capture the powerful, ferocious jawanda on a remote planet.

            Once Upon a Planet
            Ready for a holiday, the Enterprise crew returns to the planet of fantasies expressly designed to make every wish come true. But the resort has become a mad dream world where nightmares are hideously real.

            Mudd’s Passion
            When space scoundrel Harry Mudd is arrested and brought aboard the Enterprise, he subjects the crew to a liquid-crystal love potion–with devastating results.

            The Magicks of Megas-tu
            After penetrating the very heart of the galaxy, Kirk and his crew confront a strange half-man, half-goat creature, who introduces the Enterprise to a fantastic world of good . . . and evil.

            The Terratin Incident
            A garbled distress signal leads the Enterprise to certain doom in a fiery mass of radiant particles–as all living matter begins to shrink to nothingness, including Kirk and his crew.

            Time Trap
            A Klingon attack on the Enterprise causes both ships to disappear into the Delta Triangle, a dead-end time warp of lost ships. Escape is impossible– unless sworn enemies Kor, the Klingon leader, and Kirk work together.

            More Tribbles, More Troubles
            After saving a Federation scout ship from Klingon attack, Kirk also rescues Cyrano Jones and a pile of tribbles. Jones insists that these tribbles don’t multiply–but they do grow bigger, and bigger, and bigger.

            4 out of 5 stars Early DS9 and Voyager seasons in depth.......2000-06-11

            This Captain's Log follows on from the original book detailing all of the original series, The original crew movies and TNG up to the end of season 5. This new book features DS9's first four seasons and Voyager's first two in more detail than the earlier work and is one of the few insights available into these shows. The authors aren't known as these series' greatest fans but they don't let it show and its a credit to them that you neither feel this is a studio puff piece nor a poison review book. It's objective, and that's something few Trek non-fiction books have. What's refeshing is the writers are interviewed more than in most publications so you get an insight as to how they perceived their work. Stories you or I may have liked aren't always the ones they are most proud of and vice versa. A must for anyone interested in Star Trek as a whole or just wishing to re-evaluate their stance on the 'younger' shows.
