Keep calm and boldly go!



Happy Birthday to Gene Roddenberry, the creator of Star Trek!  Thanks for all the inspiration and imagination!  Although the "Great Bird of the Galaxy" passed away in 1991, his creation still lives on and inspires millions around the world.

You can now download the complete game rules in PDF form for free!! Not only that--but the first Far Trek adventure is also a free download as well in the downloads!

I very much appreciate those who chipped in to buy a brother a beer, and if you enjoy Far Trek, feel free to chip in some beer money too Trekking is thirsty work!

Thanks again to Darren Bulmer for helping to expand and edit this edition of Far Trek and Joe Walerko for all his assistance in editing this edition.

With over 4600 downloads of the original, I sure hope you will enjoy this newly revised, expanded and edited edition!

    I'd gotten all excited about ordering this, only to discover - according to Lulu - it "ships only from the United States", which means a minimum £8.99 shipping (without tracking) on a £3.76 book.

    Or I could take the expedited shipping offer for a mere £27.99 or the express option for the totally reasonable £47.99!!!

    A shame, I was looking forward to this, but it's clearly not to be. :-(

      Sorry Tim, not much I can do about Lulu shipping costs, but hey the PDF is free as is the adventure!

      Why did you choose the "ships only from the US" option? Your other books (Rogue Space, Raedwald, ...) are available in other Lulu shops as well, with much cheaper shipping to Europe.

      No problem ;-) Sadly, it's one of the "drawbacks" of living in the UK ;-) As you say, I have the impressive PDF!

      Generally the "ships only from the US" is more to do with the page size/design of the book, rather than anything else.

      And after all that, I decided that £12.75 wasn't too much to pay for "once-in-a-lifetime" (as mondbuchstaben put it) book! It is Trek when all is said and done!

      That's around how much I paid for shipping. Then again, I bought 4 of 'em. ;)

    With regular shipping it's around 15 € for me, which is okay for something this awesome. Having the PDF printed would be more expensive, and I can totally wait for 3 weeks till the book arrives, since I have the PDF for the meantime... ;)

    Same here ... 15 € is ok for this once-in-a-lifetime chance.

    Well, I'm dirt poor right now, but I ponied up the $2.65 for the book (minus the 15% discount), and the cost of US Mail shipping! Looking forward to a hardcopy in my hands! With an awesome cover to boot!
