Review

5 stars

I will admit that I know of Star Trek, you would have to be dead not to have hear something. But, and please forgive me, I am not one of the super fans that you think of. I broke my teeth on the original Star Trek with William Shatner when I was a kid. I did see some of the movies and the newer versions. I do admit that I really like the new remakes with Chris Pine in them. But I do appreciate the series and I couldn’t help but jump on the chance to review the pop-up book.

The first thing that I noticed was how big this book was. It is big enough just to have on the coffee table and the cover art just makes the outside look amazing. I couldn’t wait to open the book. There are so many illustrations and pop-ups throughout the book with lots of information on each version of Star Trek.

Just reading this book makes me want to go back and refresh myself on all of Star Trek, from William Shatner forward. This is a great book that will introduce you to Star Trek to rewet your appetite. This is a great addition to my library and I strongly recommend it to anyone that is a fan or likes similar books, movies, etc.

To purchase Star Trek Pop-Ups, or for more information, make sure to check out Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Goodreads.

I received the Star Trek Pop-Ups for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
