Summary: A great source of Klingon ship designs
Review: Has anyone ever noticed that the UFP seems to get the most variety of starship designs seen in Star Trek? I mean, there are all kinds of Starfleet vessel classes, from Daedalus to Constitution to Miranda to Excelsior to Ambassador to Nebula to Galaxy to Akira to Sovereign, plus everything in between! There are many classes that we've seen. However, the other main Alpha and Beta Quadrant races, like the Klingons, Cardassians, and (especially) the Romulans, each seem to have only a handful of starship designs. That's always been a minor bone of contention I've had with Star Trek. However, this (unfortunately) out-of-print book, published by FASA, helps to fix that problem by detailing many different Klingon ship designs--some canonical, like the D7 or the Bird of Prey, and many that are not, like the D-10 Riskadh, the D-20 Death Rite, the D-2 Stingtongue, D-18 Gull, or the L-9 Sabre. Some designs are not as good as others, but there are many fine Klingon designs in this book. For anyone who is a Treknophile, I highly recommend the Klingon Ship Recognition Manual.
