Chekov's Enterprise: A Personal Journal of the Making of Star Trek--The Motion Picture
by Walter KoenigWalter Koenig's (Classic Star Trek's Pavel Chekov) journal of the making of "Star Trek: The Motion Picture. His moods swing wildly between elation at reuniting with the original Star Trek cast to bleak insecurity that his character is being overlooked, and that the movie won't be the hit the fans expect. Here is a look behind the scenes of filming a movie detailing highly technical explanations of camera set ups, scene composition and a multitude of script rewrites to accommodate the special effects, the actor's expectations, and time allotted for the completed movie. There are anecdotes illuminating the tensions and camaraderie between actors and technicians and the big brass. During the four months of filming the actors mingle, gossip, and fill long periods of time between shots where they are needed. When they are in front of the cameras they work feverishly shooting take after take, often under difficult, exhausting conditions. there is a wealth of information here about the trades of actors, directors, and many types of technicians who must cooperate to create a movie. Sometimes the actors are gregarious and the atmosphere electric with optimism. Sometimes they are lonely, self-absorbed and anxious in their dressing rooms or in the midst of frenetic activity. Through it all, Mr. Koenig's very personable humor, honesty, fair mindedness and sharp observation make this a fascinating book.

Cherry Heaven
by L J AdlingtonIt is 10 years after the events in The Diary of Pelly D. A new life in The New Frontier overseas beckons Kat and Tanka, far from the terrible war in the cities, that took their parents. In a beautiful new home, Cherry Heaven, where people are building a young, liberal society, without focus on the genetic categorization and discrimination that led to the war. But all too soon Kat and Tanka find that Cherry Heaven carries haunting marks of the past. They cannot run from them, and must finally and turn and face them. Again, L. J Adlington weaves her narrative expertly from two voices, Kat, teenage, light, modern and knowing, the other a disturbed, fragmented narrative from another girl which peals away the surface of the New Frontier to expose a different and more disturbing truth. Exploring issues of postwar guilt and redemption, tension and reconciliation, framed in a fast-moving mystery, this has the same engrossing readability and accessibility as Pelly D.
