The year is 2381. They have been betrayed. Outlawed and alienated by Starfleet Command. Yet in times of war and uncertainty, the persecuted must endure. Ready to answer the urgent call for truth, justice and freedom. They are that crew.
After returning to base in San Francisco after a long diplomatic mission to Romulus, it was due to pure happenstance that the crew of the USS Theurgy managed to pick up transmissions that detailed a horrifying change to Starfleet Command. The senior positions of Starfleet Command - Starfleet's operational authority - included the Commander in Chief, the Chief of Staff and the Chief of Starfleet Operations. These three individuals, along with an unknown number of others in the organization, were revealed through the transmissions to be impersonators of the people they once were; replaced by an unknown enemy.
Before the truth came out, the crew's secretive efforts to meet this threat was compromised, and they had to flee Earth in order to save their own lives. The USS Theurgy was hunted by their former collective fleet - the pursuers merely following orders and whatever fabricated truth Command had given them. The Theurgy escaped after an enduring two months gruesome chase through the Alpha Quadrant. Yet the truth be their witness, they would restore Starfleet to the Federation and the President, and enlighten their fellow brothers and sisters in the fleet about the immediate danger they unknowingly were in by carrying out the orders of Starfleet Command. Yet the Theurgy also had to protect the truth they carried at all cost...

- Updated Reviews of ENT: "Detained" and "Vox Sola" - 11 October
- I've written all-new reviews of "Detained" and "Vox Sola", two season 1 episodes of Enterprise that explore familiar Star Trek themes and give them a sufficiently fresh spin.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Updated: Observations in TNG: "The Hunted" and TNG: "The High Ground" - 03 October
- Added more and better pictures and a few new references to Jörg's articles with Observations in TNG: "The Hunted" and Observations in TNG: "The High Ground".#cdata_escape_encode#
- SNW Season 4 Starship Database Update - 27 September
- Here are the SNW season 4 updates to Starfleet ship classes and alien ship classes.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "Tomorrow's Enterprise" - 24 September
- The season finale SNW: "Tomorrow's Enterprise" brings us two Uhuras and the expected time travel, with a slight twist on a familiar theme. While remaining entertaining, the story gets increasingly convoluted and contrived before arriving at a rather underwhelming resolution.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Updated Reviews of ENT: "Acquisition" and "Oasis" - 20 September
- I'm taking a break from SNW to review two more Enterprise season 1 episodes. Here are "Acquisition" and "Oasis".#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "Once La'an a Time" - 17 September
- My review of SNW: "Once La'an a Time" is now online. It's another whimsical fantasy episode that defies reason, although it at least has some genuinely funny moments.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Updated: Observations in TNG: "Redemption II" - 13 September
- There are more and better pictures, as well as a couple of additions and corrections, in Jörg's article with Observations in TNG: "Redemption II".#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "Orders of Magnitude" - 11 September
- Here is the latest SNW review. "Orders of Magnitude" is a tense and largely convincing new take on a classic Star Trek story concept. It is finally an episode that may incite discussion without dividing the fans.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "Like Chronitons Through the Hourglass" - 04 September
- Read my review of SNW: "Like Chronitons Through the Hourglass". After just one episode with actual science fiction, the gimmickry is back again, and it turns out to be remarkably empty.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "Off-Hour" - 28 August
- Read my review of SNW: "Off-Hour". After four gimmick episodes in a row, SNW returns with a conventional Star Trek story that is suspenseful but not without problems.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "Level-Five Transporter Accident" - 20 August
- My review of SNW: "Level-Five Transporter Accident" is online now. I went into the long-teased Muppet episode expecting something appropriately absurd and genuinely funny, but it takes a different route.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "A Case of Chiaroscuro" - 13 August
- Read my review of SNW: "A Case of Chiaroscuro". The episode is steeped in a visual and narrative style that could be described as "Metropolis meets Casablanca". There is an underlying story beyond the style, even if it doesn't always convince.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Updated: Observations in TNG: "The Vengeance Factor" and TNG: "The Defector" - 09 August
- Two more old articles have been updated with new references and better pictures: Observations in TNG: "The Vengeance Factor" and Observations in TNG: "The Defector".#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "Human Best Friend" - 06 August
- My review of SNW: "Human Best Friend" is online now. The episode offers a surprisingly decent Scotty and Ortegas storyline. But the campy humor rarely lands and the rest of the character building feels forced.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Updated: Observations in TNG: "Redemption I" - 02 August
- Added more references and better pictures to Jörg's article with Observations in TNG: "Redemption I".#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "The Griffin Incident" - 30 July
- Here is my review of SNW: "The Griffin Incident". I suspect this one will be controversial.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Review of SNW: "Valles Marineris" - 23 July
- My review of SNW: "Valles Marineris" is online. The producers promised season 4 would feature fewer "big swings", but the premiere takes a swing so big that discussing it comes with one really, really big spoiler warning.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Updated Reviews of ENT: "Fusion" and "Rogue Planet" - 18 July
- Two more Enterprise retro reviews: "Fusion" and "Rogue Planet". One raises more questions than it answers about Vulcan culture and mind melds. The other strikes me as pointless and empty.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Updated Reviews of ENT: "Shadows of P'Jem" and "Shuttlepod One" - 12 July
- Here are two more revised Enterprise reviews: "Shadows of P'Jem" and "Shuttlepod One". Both were among my least favorite season 1 episodes back in 2002. Read my reviews to find out whether almost 25 years have changed my opinion.#cdata_escape_encode#
- Updated Reviews of ENT: "Dear Doctor" and "Sleeping Dogs" - 11 July
- I've posted two more Enterprise retro reviews: "Dear Doctor" and "Sleeping Dogs". One is among Enterprise's most controversial episodes and perhaps even more problematic than I thought 25 years ago. The other is a straightforward adventure that simply works.#cdata_escape_encode#
