Revision as of 18:48, 14 February 2010
Template:Realworld Gods of Night is the first book in the Star Trek: Destiny crossover trilogy. Written by David Mack, it was released in September 2008. The trilogy is set in February of 2381.
Summary
- Blurb
- Half a decade after the Dominion War and more than a year after the rise and fall of Praetor Shinzon, the galaxy's greatest scourge returns to wreak havoc upon the Federation — and this time its goal is nothing less than total annihilation.
- Elsewhere, deep in the Gamma Quadrant, an ancient mystery is solved. One of Earth's first generation of starships, lost for centuries, has been found dead and empty on a desolate planet. But its discovery so far from home has raised disturbing questions, and the answers harken back to a struggle for survival that once tested a captain and her crew to the limits of their humanity.
- From that terrifying flashpoint begins an apocalyptic odyssey that will reach across time and space to reveal the past, define the future, and show three captains — Jean-Luc Picard of the U.S.S. Enterprise, William Riker of the U.S.S. Titan, and Ezri Dax of the U.S.S Aventine – that some destinies are inescapable.
- Excerpts of copyrighted sources are included for review purposes only, without any intention of infringement.
Background Information
- Mack began work on the manuscript in July 2007, delivering it in September 2007.
- Material from the novel was included in the Star Trek - Convention Special - along with material from Greater than the Sum and Kobayashi Maru - at the New York Comic-Con in mid-April 2008.
- A solicitation cover - featuring an image from the 2005 Ships of the Line calendar, and carrying the inaccurate title "Gods of the Night" - was presented at Amazon.com in early May 2008 (see below); however, author Mack noted that the cover did not reflect the final design. [1] The finalized cover was revealed at the Shore Leave convention on 11 July 2008.
- In the novel's inner title page, the 5th city listed under Pocket Books is Erigol, the name of the planet the Caeliar inhabit during this novel.
