Starfleet Year One (Star Trek) 18 reviews Michael Jan Friedman
Star Trek, 2002
Everything ENTERPRISE should have been
+ Best Star Trek Novel I've Ever Read + Good Book
As some reviewers are unaware, this book was written well before ENTERPRISE appeared on television. Starfleet: Year One is a truer Trek and would have been a better premise for a Trek prequel. I like ENTERPRISE, but I liked Starfleet: Year One even more. Very well done.
