Product Description

The fiercest battles and proudest warriors throughout Klingon history are said to reflect the honor and glory of the race's first emperor, Kahless the Unforgettable. But history is not always truthful. And for both the Klingon Empire and the United Federation of Planets, the real truth may be too difficult to accept.

In the pages of a novel disclaimed by Starfleet, an enemy offers his perspective on events that transpired during the formative years of Klingon-Federation relations in the early twenty-third century. Chronicling the life story of Krenn, a Klingon war strategist who learns of peace while on a mission to Earth, the novel is a testimony to his efforts to preserve the honor of his people...by preventing total war against the then-struggling Federation.

Nearly a century later, a clone of the revered Kahless oversees the Klingon Empire. But when the myths and legends associated with the original emperor are disputed following the discovery of an ancient scroll, the new Kahless faces treason from within his own council, and impending civil war that could tear the empire apart. His sole chance for restoring his people's shattered faith must come from the outside -- specifically, from Captain Jean-Luc Picard and Lieutenant Worf of the U.S.S. Enterprise.

About the Author

Michael Jan Friedman is the author of nearly sixty books of fiction and nonfiction, more than half of which bear the name Star Trek or some variation thereof. Ten of his titles have appeared on the New York Times bestseller list. He has also written for network and cable television, radio, and comic books, the Star Trek: Voyager® episode "Resistance" prominent among his credits. On those rare occasions when he visits the real world, Friedman lives on Long Island with his wife and two sons.

He continues to advise readers that no matter how many Friedmans they know, the vast probability is that none of them are related to him.

5.0 out of 5 stars Qapla! I should have read this years ago!, March 16, 2009
By Steven J. Greenfield "EET" (Tacoma, WA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was looking for "The Final Reflection" and found this, I'm glad I did! Just so you are clear, this has both books "The Final Reflection" and "Kahless", and it is worth reading.

If you have the heart of a Klingon, or at least a piece of one's liver, you should read this book. It is not just a simplistic batleth-them-up, it is a complex read.

And although I'm a Star Trek fan, I don't generally read Star Trek novels.

Qapla!

1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING: COMPILATION, NOT A ST NEW NOVEL, January 17, 2005
By Nan R. Lewis "Nan Lewis" (Indianapolis, IN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is NOT a new Star Trek novel: it is merely a compilation of two previously released ST novels, Kahless, and The Final Reflection. My one star rating reflects my annoyance at having to return what I thought was a new novel when I purchased it. The rating is not a commentary on either of the novels included in this compilation, both of which I thought were quite good.
