STAR TREK - NEW FRONTIER - THE QUIET PLACE


An Original publication of POCKET BOOKS

Written by Peter David

Copyright 1999 by Paramount Pictures. All Rights Reserved



Set in Star Trek's New Frontier series - a young woman, Riella, is being pursued by both the driven Redeemers - as well as being pursued by the aggressive Dogs of War because she has been dreaming about the mythical "The Quiet Place." Apparently the mysterious Riella is not really who she thought she was.

This book introduces the enterprising anti-hero Xyon, who reluctantly becomes the protector of Riella as he helps her search for her true identity. It was funny to me that Riella questions Xyon's intentions and fitness as protector as he constantly risks getting beaten up for her.

The book also has a bonus extra - Chapter 4 of Starfleet: Year One. This chapter focuses on suggestions for the design of a new starship project for Starfleet, like a new engine, from various driven Starfleet captains since the captains are the ones taking the risks with their starships.
