Cool book coming this fall with an interactive base and lots of extra goodies too.

One of the more exciting pieces of Star Trek non-fiction has been announced today. "STAR TREK Federation: The First 150 Years" is new officially licensed hardcover book that will cover history for the first 150 years of the United Federation of Planets. The book comes with bonus historical documents and an interactive electronic pedestal that includes a narration by George Takei. More details and images below...

I like how they refer to it as non-fiction :) Very cool looking though, I'm intrigued.

I'll have to see one before I split with the money. Since it lists at $99.99 I assume it will come down to around the $70 mark but still that would be the most I have ever spent on a Star Trek book. Not sure it's worth it to me.

I'm tempted...but think the price should go down a bit.
