Willful Child

Steven Erikson, the New York Times bestselling author of the acclaimed Malazan Book of the Fallen sequence, has taken his lifelong 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-high-tech-gadgets-along-the-way overblown adventure. The result is a science fiction series that deftly parodies the genre while also paying fond homage to it—a series of devil-may-care, near calamitous and downright chaotic escapades through the infinite vastness of interstellar space.
