Quatrième de couverture :
These are the voyages of the starship, A.S.F. Willful Child. Its ongoing mission: to seek out strange new worlds on which to plant the Terran flag, to subjugate and if necessary obliterate new life life-forms, to boldly blow the...
And so we join the not-terribly-bright but exceedingly cock-sure Captain Hadrian Sawback - a kind of James T Kirk crossed with 'American Dad' - and his motley crew on board the Starship Willful Child for a series of devil-may-care, near-calamitous and downright chaotic adventures through 'the infinite vastness of interstellar space'...
The bestselling author of the acclaimed Malazan Book of the Fallen sequence has taken his life-long passion for 'Star Trek' and transformed it into a smart, inventive and hugely entertaining spoof on the whole mankind-exploring-space-for-the-good-of-all-species-but-trashing-stuff-with-a-lot-of-hi-tech-kit-along-the-way type over-blown adventure. The result is this smart. inventive, occasionally wildly OTT and often very funny novel that deftly parodies the genre while also paying fond homage to it.
These are the voyages (such as they are) of the Engage-Class Starship Willful Child.
Its mission: to seek out new worlds, to subjugate and occasionally obliterate strange and disgusting life-forms, and to boldly go where they probably shouldn’t . . .
Depending on who you talk to, Captain Hadrian Sawback is the either the pride of the Terran Space Fleet or its biggest disgrace. There’s never been Directive he didn’t break, an order he didn’t disregard, a uniform he didn’t rip, or a curvaceous crew member he doesn’t want to make first contact with.
Assigned to a routine shakedown cruise in search of smugglers, Sawback and his occasionally mutinous crew embark on a calamitous journey into Unknown Space. Can he save the Affiliation of Civilized Planets from an all-out alien invasion – or will he be court-martialled first?
Steven Erikson has taken his lifelong passion for a certain beloved science fiction TV series and turned into it a rollicking trek into the outer limits of absurdity and over-the-top heroism.
