Star Trek the Next Generation: Forgiveness (Star Trek Next Generation (Unnumbered)) Hardcover - 2001

From the publisher

Colin Blakeney, 21st-century inventor of the technology that will give the world the transporter and the holodeck, is the victim of a treacherous attack that beams him out of his world and into...forever. Three hundred years after Blakeney's disappearance, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise TM NCC-1701-E detect a stray transporter beam in deep space. On their way to an encounter with the Palami, they encounter a hostile race that may be preparing for interstellar war. Captain Picard and his crew have other things on their minds. But when they realize that there's a living being inside the wayward beam, they bring it aboard and encounter a mystery for the ages! This graphic novel is written by best-selling science fiction novelist David Brin (The Postman, the Uplift Storm trilogy, Brightness Reef, Glory Season) and beautifully painted by Scott Hampton. With the sure fictional hand and scientific expertise his legions of readers have come to expect, Brin turns his attention to the universe of Star Trek RM and to the comics medium for the first time. Hampton's painted artwork on other comics projects has won accolades from fans around the world and has established his reputation as one of the finest painters working in the graphic-novel medium. Forgiveness is a masterly work that must not be missed by any fan of Star Trek, comics art or great science fiction.
