I enjoyed the Enterprise Haynes manual a year ago but this is a completely different beast and I might admit it's actually better because the material isn't something that Trek has covered in massive detail over the years. What I would say is that if you're a hard-core Trek fan this is excellent but the more casual viewer may find it a bit of a chore because it can be quite "techie" at times. I was quite impressed with the detail it went into in regards to the fleet development as well as how Birds of Prey are commissioned and the crew hierarchy. The book is excellently illustrated and in hardback so there's a lot of love gone into its production. As a fan of DS9 it's a nice accompaniment to the DS9 Technical Manual as it covers another angle of what was my favourite Trek series. What I am a bit disappointed with (and this goes for a lot of Trek books using images from the series) is that the selection of frame-grabs is a little average when compared to the excellent CGI that sits next to it and there are a few I wouldn't have selected because they are a bit weak but hey - overall it's excellent and I have been waiting for this for a while. It's not the thickest book or particularly aimed at kids or adults. It's a fun book in all honesty and very easy to dip in and out of. For the casual fan I would probably therefore give it a four from five due to the level of detail. Definitely worth a read and might just tip you into super geekdom...! Review: QAPLA - FULL OF HONOR - The Klingon Bird-Of-Prey 'owners workshop manual' an official Star Trek product is literally Filled With Honor and it was an honor to review it! Published by Haynes, it numbers 123 pages filled to overflowing with important commentaries, discussions and full color in-depth technical diagrams of the B'rel Class BOP. As some of you are aware the BOP was originally a Romulan design, adopted by the Klingon Defense Force and subsequently adapted by the Klingons for multi-role duties at a time when they were still at war with The Federation. Following the various accords and treaties, and especially following the defense of Federation outpost Deep Space 9 less was seen of these remarkable craft by the Federation as the Klingon Empire choose to pursue other enemies, new conquests. Lavishly illustrated by the legendary Rick Sternbach and much of its technical material produced by author Ben Robinson the owners workshop manual not only discusses the various technologies found on board the vessel but also delves into the command hierarchy and the protocols expected of any Klingon warrior who would serve aboard her. Much of what you find in the book is presented in Federation standard (English) and in Klingon with a handy Klingon supplemental section in the last few pages of the manual for those of you who are not familiar with spoken or written Klingon. The book is so well written that any fourth year Starfleet cadet finding him or herself serving on board a Bird-Of-Prey could easily identify any major piece of equipment on board such a vessel and thus avoid possible conflict or disagreement with her Klingon crewmembers. The book even includes a complete breakdown of the interior layout of the vessel (deck plans) and even mentions by name other glorious vessels of both the B'rel and much larger version, the feared K'vort class. Yes, this manual has it all - Qapla' batlh je! An absolute MUST for anyone who wants to KNOW how starships actually work! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 470,980 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 37,982 in Science Fiction (Books) | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (137) | | Dimensions | 27.8 x 1.3 x 21 cm | | Edition | First Edition | | ISBN-10 | 0857332767 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0857332769 | | Item weight | 640 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 128 pages | | Publication date | 5 Nov. 2012 | | Publisher | J H Haynes & Co Ltd | ## Images ![Klingon Bird of Prey Manual: IKS Rotarran (B'rel-class) (Owners' Workshop Manual) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71K1Voi9uqL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Warp Coils sorted now to deal with Anti-Matter Storage... *by C***9 on 28 November 2012* Wow.

An absolute MUST for anyone who wants to KNOW how starships actually work! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lot of detail with depth *by S***E on 15 May 2013* Lots of information in this book, and certainly one for the fans (of which I am one!) It's in the typical format of a Haynes manual but this has input from Rick Sternbach who has been involved in several manuals as well as several Star Trek shows. The level of detail is impressive and for the first time to my knowledge it covers some of the background in how the Klingon hierarchy runs and how the navy works - adds a lot to back story of the Klingons and their ships. One thing I found of interest is how the book addresses the size of the ships - ie a scout ship and battle ship are the same design (for cost purposes on the show I assume). It's a well thought out explanation and it made sense. Very colourful book that is easy to just dip in and out of and adds something unique to the lore of Trek. Good fun, even for non trekkies :) ## Frequently Bought Together - Klingon Bird of Prey Manual: IKS Rotarran (B'rel-class) (Owners' Workshop Manual) - U.S.S.
