    Amazing video! This is a great collection. I confess. I'm jealous.
    Unfortunately, only 15 books from the Star Trek series were published in translation in Russia. This was very little. You're lucky to have such an expanded Star Trek universe. And I'm jealous again.

    I think my favorite book is The Romulan Way by Diane Duane. Sarek, Prime Directive, and Imzadi are also great, though for Sarek you should have some familiarity with TWOK and TUC. I have read over 20 books, am expecting 6 to arrive today, and expecting another 7 soon. I will then have 55. Not a bad start. For the record, Diane Duane cowrote the TNG episode that introduced the Traveller.

    fotonovel #2 is under valued if you're a true collector. I will ask this question? What is James Kirks middle initial? Your answer is in this fotonovel. Oh just for your info IT IS NOT " T " it was changed after this ONE episode.

    I actually love the old Bantam Star trek books. They are SO bad, they've crossed over into hilarious and super fun. I wish there more of them!

    I like the old numbered books. It was back before they had too much canon to work around, and therefore I believe allowed more creativity.

    What you guys consider ‘bad’ covers, I consider really cool…I guess I just enjoy corny pulp things.

    The numbered books are a lot of fun when you realize they were essentially standalone episodes of the show. The writers were forbidden from making any changes to continuity or doing anything that could affect the show's canon. I have all the numbered TNG books and most of the non-numbered, and still love most of the numbered.

    Damn what a collection! That’s insane and cool. Can I ask a question? Is there a Star Trek novel you read and thought “that’s awful and good at the same time”? Not William Shatner ones. (I’m sorry for any mistakes, eng is not my first language)

      Thanks for the comment. My experience is that the books are either good or bad with not much in-between. However, some of the books are good but have embarrassingly bad covers!
