    It was one of the Strange New Worlds anthologies.

    Though on the cover as published, it was replaced with the Delta Flyer after fans on the Internet pointed it out.

    Wasn't there another novel which had Colonial Vipers?

    Really like that cover and, @Captain of the USS Averof, thank you for identifying that ship. It looks really cool - retro but aerodynamic. I hope the book doesn't contradict the look. :drool:

    I didn't describe it in detail, just an advanced-looking scout ship. Whether that ship fits the bill is for the observer to decide.

    I'm a bit more forgiving when it comes to abstract things like that. Reconsidering it a bit,I guess I can see going the way they did with it a stock non-Trek ship since people would probably complain if they used a familiar ship which didn't actually appear in the book.
    That is hilarious and awesome at the same time. Where did it come from?

    Back cover of Star Trek Annual 1976. Just google "Star Trek Annual" and let your eyes feast on the awesomeness of '70s Star Trek art! For some reason they all had the rocket nacelles/secondary hull!

    Interesting how they covered up Spock's ears in that picture. I wonder if the BBC was having any of the same concerns NBC had had in the early days...?

    Just to share and put in its right place here, this appears to have been one of Doug Drexler's cover designs for Enigma Tales. Love it, very dark and rather allegorical :D

    Can that awful overly large picture of Garak stop being posted & reposted? Thanks.

    Going by that picture, I don't know if I want to know.

    It's the creepy baby ghosts dancing around Garak that really gets to me.

    Sith/Goth Garak's hands all over the small children looks super creepy even though he's probably protecting them.

    Did someone confuse Andrew Robinson's appearances as Garak with that of Hellraiser???
