Book excerpt: The Captain's Table was a bestselling 6-volume series from 1998 in which five Star Trek captains (one from each of the then television series, plus Captain Pike from the Star Trek pilot and Captain Calhoun from Star Trek New Frontier) each told their story. This new anthology unites top Star Trek authors with no less than nine starship captains, each of whom tells his or her tale in the unique setting of the Captain's Table bar - a watering hole reserved solely for captains throughout time and space. Among those whose company readers can share in Tales From the Captain's Table are Jonathan Archer from Star Trek: Enterprise; Captain William Riker of the USS Titan; Captain Kira Nerys, now commander of space station Deep Space Nine; Captain Chakotay, newly appointed captain of the USS Voyager; Captain Elizabeth Shelby from Star Trek: New Frontier; SCE's Captain Gold; the Klingon captain Klag of the IKS Gorkon and Demora Sulu from the Lost Era volume, Serpents Among the Ruins.
