I have been looking for a good book on ENT a la Allan Asherman's Star Trek Compendium or Nemecek's Star Trek The Next Generation Companion, but have not been able to find one. Do any books like this exist for ENT? I go to memory alpha a lot, but a book to have it all in one place would be great. Am I missing something?
Any good Enterprise episode guides/companions/compendiums?
- Thread starter Trekwatcher
- Start date
Sadly there hasn't been much in the way of a reference book for nearly a decade. An Enterprise guide would be neat but I'd settle for an updated Chronology. A lot has happened since the end of DS9 S4/VOY S2. Yes, it and the Encylopedia are that out of date... that's 12 seasons and two films' worth of material to cover.

No, because sales for that type of (expensive to research and publish) book have slipped as more and more fans use free online research sites instead.
Coming later this year, though, with be an all-inclusive book called "Star Trek 101", a trade paperback with colour photos, written by Terry J Erdmann and his wife, Paula Block (of CBS Consumer Products). It will be a "primer", mainly aimed at casual fans drawn in to the ST phenomenon by the JJ Abrams movie. It won't be as detailed as an Asherman or Nemecek book because it will cover all the series and movies... but better than nothing.

I have started an online companion but I only have the first season finished. I just have not had the time to work on it recently. I plan to get back to it in the coming months and hopefully finish it off before summer. Life just keeps getting in the way though.
But once it is finished, I hope to offer it as a downloadable PDF book. Of course people will have to print it and bind it however they want to but at least it will be in a ready book form to do so. If the powers that be won't give us one than why not make my own.
If you want to see what I have so far just click the link in my sig. Of course, any feedback would be appreciated.
