Synopsis

Continuing the milestone 50th anniversary celebration of Star Trek—an epic new trilogy that stretches from the events of The Original Series movie The Search for Spock to The Next Generation!

When Klingon commander Kruge died in combat against James T. Kirk on the Genesis planet back in 2285, he left behind a powerful house in disarray—and a series of ticking time bombs: the Phantom Wing, a secret squadron of advanced Birds-of-Prey; a cabal of loyal officers intent on securing his heritage; and young Korgh, his thwarted would-be heir, willing to wait a Klingon lifetime to enact his vengeance.

Now, one hundred years later, while on a diplomatic mission for the United Federation of Planets, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and the crew of the USS Enterprise are snared in the aged Korgh’s trap—and thrust directly in the middle of an ancient conflict. But as Commander Worf soon learns, Korgh may be after far bigger game than anyone imagines, confronting the Federation-Klingon alliance with a crisis unlike any it has ever seen!

Goodreads review by Jamie on October 27, 2023

Fantastic thriller revolving around the concepts of Klingon honor and redemption for the sins of one's forebearers, particularly those banished for grievous transgressions who have been stripped of their names and identities for generations to come. In Klingon society this is a punishment worse than......more

Great start to what I'm hoping will be a great trilogy. I was worried about this book before I started it since I was super pumped about his previous ST novel that was well written but just seem off. I can't articulate it very well but I guess the book just didn't feel like Star Trek to me somehow,......more

Goodreads review by Daniel on September 18, 2016

Anytime you start playing in-depth with Klingon culture & history, you threaten to disappear down a drainpipe lined with anthropological minutiae. There are times when book one of "Prey" threatens to disappear down such a whirlpool, never to be seen again...but John Jackson Miller manages to hold it......more

Goodreads review by David on December 06, 2017

I am not a fan of media tie-ins. I can probably count the number of media tie-in novels I've read in my life on the fingers of one hand. And I'm not a huge Trekkie either. I like Star Trek well enough - I've seen most of the movies and TOS, TNG, and DS9 and bits of the other series. But normally I w......more
