POCKET BOOKS New York London Toronto Sydney Singapore “Fans of the firstEugenics Wars will love this sequel.” -Michelle Erica Green,Trek Nation Cox’s electric, fun-loving style of storytelling is the perfect medium to take the reader into the twenty-first century and beyond. The Eugenics Wars, Volume Two is an audacious, fast-moving conclusion to the EugenicsWar duology, one-upping the considerable dramatic intensity and inventive accomplishment of the first volume, and bringing the story to a remarkably smooth, coherent conclusion, complete with an unequivocal (if surely controversial) moral. This is a novel not to be missed by even the most casual Star Trek fan.” -Jacqueline Bundy,The Trekker Newsletter “Every bit as exciting, entertaining and humorous as the first volume-Cox has produced a story so dramatic that the reader truly feels as if they are immersed in a Star Trek myth-inspired overview of the political upheavals of the mid-1990s.
