Reviews
"Breathtaking in scope and depth, this is a must-read for Star Trek lovers as well as anyone who wants a better understanding of how television and film production works." -- Booklist , starred review "An absolute must for any Star Trek fan." -- Kirkus Reviews "As a lifelong fan, I thought I knew everything there was to know about Star Trek . Thankfully, I was wrong. Thanks to revealing, honest and -- dare I say it? -- fascinating interviews from the insiders who were really there, The Fifty-Year Mission is an epic tome that's full of so much fantastic information, I felt like I was discovering the incredible behind-the-scenes story of Star Trek (and Hollywood, for that matter) all over again. It's a page-turner in every sense of the word, and I could not put it down." --Scott Mantz, Access Hollywood
