Star Trek Generations
''Star Trek Generations'' is a 1994 American science fiction film and the seventh film in the ''Star Trek'' film series. Malcolm McDowell joins cast members from the 1960s television show ''Star Trek'' and the 1987 sequel series ''The Next Generation'', including William Shatner and Patrick Stewart. In the film, Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the USS ''Enterprise''-D joins forces with Captain James T. Kirk to stop the villain Tolian Soran from destroying a planetary system in his attempt to return to an extra-dimensional realm known as the Nexus. ''Generations'' was conceived as a handoff from the original cast of the ''Star Trek'' films to the cast of ''The Next Generation''.

Maquis (Star Trek)
In the ''Star Trek'' science fiction franchise, the Maquis are a 24th-century paramilitary organization-terrorist group (like the World War II Maquis in the French Resistance and the Spanish Maquis that emerged in the Spanish Civil War). The group is introduced in the two-part episode "The Maquis" of the television series '' Star Trek: Deep Space Nine'', building on a plot foundation introduced in the episode "Journey's End" of '' Star Trek: The Next Generation'', and appear in later episodes of those two series as well as '' Star Trek: Voyager''. The Maquis story debuted when three ''Star Trek'' television shows running from 1987 to 2001 took place in the same fictional science-fiction universe at the same time in the future (the 2360s–2370s). As a result, the Maquis story was told across several episodes across all three shows. The Maquis are especially prominent in ''Star Trek: Voyager'', as the fundamental premise of the series is that a Starfleet crew and a Maquis crew are ...

Novels By John Vornholt
A novel is a relatively long work of narrative fiction, typically written in prose and published as a book. The present English word for a long work of prose fiction derives from the for "new", "news", or "short story of something new", itself from the la, novella, a singular noun use of the neuter plural of ''novellus'', diminutive of ''novus'', meaning "new".
