In unabashed celebration of Captain James T. Kirk's singular
fighting skills, Star Trek: Kirk Fu Manual is every Starfleet
cadet's must-have training guide for surviving the final frontier.
As captain of the legendary U.S.S. Enterprise, James T. Kirk
engaged in his share of fisticuffs, besting opponents with a slick
combination of moves and guile that remains unmatched. Is there
anyone you'd rather have watching your back as you take on
Klingons, alien gladiators, genetically engineered supermen, and
even the occasional giant walking reptile? Kirk Fu is a series of
unarmed combat techniques developed by one of Starfleet's most
celebrated starship captains over several years of exploring deep
space. A blend of various fighting styles, Kirk Fu incorporates
elements of several Earth-based martial arts forms as well as
cruder methods employed in bars and back alleys on planets
throughout the galaxy. It is as unorthodox in practice as it is
unbelievable to behold. Including excerpts from Kirk's own notes
and personal logs, the Star Trek: Kirk Fu Manual is the perfect
training guide for surviving the depths of space. With proper
training and practice, every Starfleet cadet can become one with
Kirk Fu.
An all-new novel based upon the acclaimed Star Trek TV
series! Captain Michael Burnham and the crew of the
USS Discovery are finding that each day is a critical
adjustment to their new lives and new missions in an Alpha Quadrant
more than nine hundred years in the future. It’s here
that Discovery is reconnecting with various worlds
where the cataclysmic event known as “the Burn†has decimated
Starfleet and, with it, the United Federation of Planets. There’s
been precious little time for the crew to truly come to terms with
their present reality, as their devotion to duty hides the
emotional stress that could impact their effectiveness, and even
threaten themselves or others. After a successful journey to yet
another planet cut off from the
Federation, Discovery picks up a distress signal
located in a nearby star system—a plea that harbors roots from
their past lives in the 23rd century, and which may now lead to an
entirely new crisis, plunging them all into mortal danger… ™

with his humanity. And now Tony Stark is ready to talk about it
all. Revisit the story of one of Marvel Comics’ most heroic,
heralded, and complex characters in his own words, as well as
through notes, interviews, and files assembled from the Avengers’

An original novel set in the universe of Star Trek: The Original
Series! The Xondaii system-located in an area of non-aligned space
near Federation and Romulan territory-is home to a unique stellar
phenomenon: a spatial rift which opens every 2.7 Earth years,
remains open for a period of approximately twenty-one Earth days,
and allows access to a small planetoid that orbits in proximity to
the system's fourth planet. During this brief window, the people of
Xondaii undertake a massive interplanetary operation: mineral ore
is ferried from the mining operation while supplies, crew
replacements, and so on are transported from the planet. Also,
communications with the mining colony on the planetoid are possible
only when the rift is open. Science vessel U.S.S. Robert Ballard is
severely damaged during its mission to the system, and the U.S.S.
Enterprise is dispatched to investigate and render assistance. But
Kirk, Spock, and Sulu also collect the data about the rift, and the
evidence they've gathered regarding its artificial nature is
compelling. How has this not been discovered by anyone from
Xondaii, especially when considering the extensive mining
operations that have been in place for decades? And what can
prevent enemies of the Federation from exploiting this newfound
power?

COUNTERSTRIKE
When the alien war engulfing a distant planet spilled to Earth
through a network of hidden portals, humankind was plunged into an
apocalyptic, generations-old conflict between the Plysserians and
the Chodrecai. Now, months after Earth's most powerful military
forces formed a tenuous alliance with the Plysserians and countered
a devastating, three-pronged Chodrecai offensive, alien survivors
continue to wreak havoc on a shell-shocked Earth. Martial law and
civil unrest run rampant. Resistance cells and pockets of Chodrecai
sympathizers are gathering strength. And two U.S. Marines--Sergeant
Major Simon DiCarlo and Sergeant Belinda Russell-- remain trapped
on the alien planet of "Jontashreena."
Now, as human and Plysserian scientists and engineers race to
unlock the intergalactic portals and harvest alien technology,
Earth prepares for the most explosive battle for its existence.
Joining the war effort are recruits like young Colin Laney, who
will advance from Marine boot camp to the forefront of a massive
invasion on alien terrain--with the fate of two worlds hanging in
the balance.

Trek: The Original Series! The Taurus Reach: a remote interstellar
expanse that holds a very old and potentially cataclysmic secret,
the truth of which is feared by the Tholians, coveted by the
Klingons, and dubiously guarded by the Federation. At the center of
this intrigue is Vanguard, a Federation starbase populated by an
eclectic mix of Starfleet officers and civilians, whose lives are
forever altered as they explore the layers of mystery surrounding
the Reach and steadily peel them away...one after another. In the
aftermath of Harbinger, Commodore Diego Reyes commands Vanguard
while waging an intensely personal struggle, tasked to uncover the
true significance of the Taurus Reach while simultaneously
concealing that mission from his fellow officers-and even his
closest friends. As the Daedalus-class U.S.S. Lovell brings some of
Starfleet's keenest technical minds to help, the U.S.S. Endeavour
makes a find that could shed further light on the enigmatic
meta-genome that has captured the Federation's interest-if its crew
survives the discovery... Deep within the Taurus Reach, an ancient
and powerful alien mind has awakened prematurely from aeons of
hibernation, alerted to the upstart civilizations now daring to
encroach upon the worlds in her care. With the stakes for all sides
escalating rapidly, the alien lashes out with deadly force against
the interlopers, propelling the Vanguard crew on a desperate race
to understand the nature of the attacker, and to prevent the Taurus
Reach from becoming a war zone.
