No Limits
In 1997, Star Trek: New Frontier debuted and became an instant sensation, chronicling the exciting adventures of Captain Mackenzie Calhoun and the U.S.S. Excalibur, as told by New York Times bestselling author Peter David. Now, over a dozen books later, Peter David has gathered some of the finest Star Trek authors to tell new tales of the Excalibur crew:
Dayton Ward’s thrilling adventure from Calhoun’s sordid past
Loren L. Coleman’s tale of Shelby’s first experience with the Borg
Robert Greenberger’s origin of “Lefler’s Laws”
Susan Shwartz’s adventure with Soleta and Ambassador Spock
Terri Osborne’s chronicle of Selar’s encounter with the Q
David Mack’s tale of the longest day of Zak Kebron’s life
plus stories by Keith R.A. DeCandido, Susan Wright, Josepha Sherman, Ilsa J. Bick, Kevin Dilmore, Christina F. York, Robert T. Jeschonek, Peg Robinson, Mary Scott-Wiecek, Allyn Gibson, and Glenn Hauman & Lisa Sullivan.
Added Bonus! Peter David himself tells the untold story of Calhoun and Shelby’s honeymoon on Xenex!
Edited by Star Trek: New Frontier co-developer and author Peter David, No Limits features new stories spotlighting the individual characters that make up the New Frontier ensemble. The stories, for the most part, focus on the characters’ lives prior to their joining the New Frontier cast.
