Título: The Good That Men Do
Autor: Andy Mangels
Sinopse: Pax Galactica. Enemies become allies. Old secrets are at last revealed. Long-held beliefs and widely accepted truths are challenged. Man turns to leisurely pursuits. In this golden age, two old friends are drawn together. They seek to understand, and wonder how what they have long believed, what they have been taught, was never so. Over two hundred years ago, the life of one of Starfleet's earliest pioneers came to a tragic end, and Captain Jonathan Archer, the legendary commander of Earth's first warp-five starship, lost a close friend. Or so it seemed for many years. But with the passage of time, and the declassification of certain crucial files, the truth about that fateful day -- the day that Commander Charles "Trip" Tucker III didn't die -- could finally be revealed. Why did Starfleet feel it was necessary to rewrite history? And why only now can the truth be told? [Memory Alpha, the Star Trek wiki -- Background Information]: Written by Andy Mangels and Michael A. Martin and edited by Margaret Clark, "The Good That Men Do" attempts to reinterpret the events seen in "These Are the Voyages...", the final episode of Star Trek: Enterprise. In the episode, William T. Riker and Deanna Troi of the USS Enterprise-D take part in an historic holoprogram which supposedly depicts the final voyage of Enterprise and her crew... and the death of Charles "Trip" Tucker III. Although the holoprogram has the events taking place in 2161, The Good That Men Do placed the action in 2155, shortly after the events of the incident with Terra Prime as depicted in the Star Trek: Enterprise episodes "Demons" and "Terra Prime". |...| An extract from this novel appeared in Star Trek Magazine issue 131. [Memorable Quote]: "Patience. Never had much time for it. SIR." -- Captain Jonathan Archer.
