Revision as of 14:18, 24 October 2015
Template:Realworld A Federation starship encounters a planet-killer similar to the one destroyed in "The Doomsday Machine."
Summary
- From the book cover
- It was a dull patrol, and the officers and crew of the frigate USS Fife were tired of the routine, tired of watching an empty frontier. Then, a call for help put the Fife face-to-face with the most implacable foe ever faced by Starfleet – one of the robot-brained "planet killers," like the one destroyed years before by the Enterprise.
- As if that weren't enough, the Fife had to contend with panicky civilians, selfish VIPs, interfering Romulans, and a colorful rogue whose surprising cargo might hold the only hope of stopping the planet-crushing juggernaut.
- It would be a day they would all remember... but it certainly wouldn't be A Doomsday Like Any Other.
- Excerpts of copyrighted sources are included for review purposes only, without any intention of infringement.
Background information
The Fife is incorrectly pictured as a Miranda-class starship on the front cover but the supplement's drawings and text clearly show the vessel as a Chandley class starship.
