Star Trek: The Captain's Table - Absolutely wonderful!

Star Trek: The Captain's Table Omnibus is a wonderful compilation of some of the best Star Trek written to date! I originally read all six of the paperbacks and purchased this more as a collector's thing than anything else. All in all, the whole series is great and in good keeping with the principles and ethos of what "The Great Bird of the Galaxy" intended Star Trek to be. I do have to admit that it would be nice if one of the better trek authors was given the opportunity to write a seventh book with Captain Archer from "Enterprise."

Star Trek Captains Table: Omnibus

This book is about a bar that great captains go to to relax and tell stories. The Book is a collection of all six captains table books. It is about all the captains in the Star Trek Series and their stories. This book begins with Captain Kirk and Captain Sulu then through Captain Janeway, Sisko,Christopher Pike, and Calhoun. Readers who enjoy Star Trek Books will love this book told by the great Captains in the Series.

Great insight to the different Captain's

I greatly enjoyed this book. As I neared the end of it, I found myself wishing there was another book with another series of stories. I can't pick out which story I enjoyed the most, as they were each so differend. I had never heard of The New Frontier, or Captain Mackenzie Calhoun, but found I enjoyed that story as much as the rest. The thread that connects the stories altogether in the bar The Captain's Table is quite enjoyable. I can't help but think that this idea would make a great movie. It would also be interesting to read stories from some of the other Captain's in the bar. As a long time Star Trek reader, I was thrilled to get this book as a gift. I could hear the voices of the Captain's as I read the book. Many books I read I pass along as gifts to others. This one I will loan out, but not give away.

Awesome!

I thought this was a great book. Exciting, entertaining, and a lot of just plain fun. It was great to hear about familiar faces in new and different kinds of stories. Captain Picard's was the best, with Calhoun's and Sisko's coming in behind. But the thing is, they're all good. They have a new twist of creativity from the junk that sorry to say is coming out right now. I loved the lizard! The lizard rules because he is the coolest sidekick in the story! Definetly worth reading. You got to check this one out.

Very good concept

I've read all of these books in this incredible series, except Kirk's (not much of a Kirk fan), which I intend to eventually. The concept of Captain's Table is absolutly brilliant. Calhoun's and Picard's story easily the best, but Sisko's a huge let down. Be sure to look at my reviews on each book in this series, except Kirk's (of course).
