In Wounds, an anthology of the Star Trek Corp of Engineers with five stories by Ilsa J. Bick, Keith R.A. DeCandido, John J. Ordover, Terri Osborne, and Cory Rushton,

I like the fact that, while each story in this anthology can be read separately, the stories interconnect and build on each other. The SCE deal with the aftermath of the Dominion War. Starting with the murder of two crewmen, to dealing with a threat from the Mirror Universe, to eventually having Doctor's Lense and Bashir crashing on a war-torn planet.

After being stranded on the war-torn planet, Doctor Lense's life changes forever.

STAR TREK - TALES FROM THE CAPTAIN'S TABLE

POCKET BOOKS

Edited by Keith R.A. DeCandido

Copyright 2005 by Paramount Pictures. All Rights Reserved.

STAR TREK - TALES FROM THE CAPTAIN'S TABLE, edited by Keith R.A. DeCandido, is an anthology of stories that are based on the idea of The Captain's Table, which is a multi-dimensional space bar that allows Captain's from various times and planets to come in to gather and have a friendly drink - which is paid for by telling a story.

With the bartender Cap as the only recurring character at home in The Captain's Table, he provides a sense of continuity between all the stories of the anthology as Cap welcomes back all of these captains into his bar. The anthology contains nine stories from nine different captains from all the various series. The stories are of Captains Jean-Luc Picard of the U.S.S. Stargazer told by Michael Jan Friedman, Elizabeth Shelby of the U.S.S Trident told by Peter David, Klag of the I.K.S Gorkon told by Keith R.A. DeCandido, Kira Nerys of Deep Space 9 told by Heather Jarman, Jonathan Archer of the Starship Enterprise told by Louisa M. Swann, Demora Sulu of the U.S.S Enterprise B told by David R. George III, Chakotay of the U.S.S. Voyager told by Christie Golden, and David Gold of the U.S.S. da Vinci told by John J. Ordover. These stories are written by some of Star Trek's best writers. These stories range from serious to comedic, adventure and romance, triumph and tragedy, duty and honor and are mostly told in first person which is befitting for a story told in a bar.

Due to the deminsionality of The Captain's Table and the telling of the tales, Demora Sulu appears at various ages of her life in this anthology. I mostly think of Demora Sulu as a young impetuous Starfleet officer as portrayed in The Captain's Daughter, instead of the older mature woman Captain of the Enterprise despite being in other stories besides The Captain's Daughter.
