    Star Trek. Invasione 56. L'esercito della paura
    • In seguito agli scontri avvenuti quasi un secolo prima tra una minacciosa razza aliena, le Furie, e la forza congiunta della Flotta Stellare con i Kingon, la Federazione ha deciso di stabilire un avamposto nello spazio conquistato. Ma ora, dopo decenni, le furie sono tornate, intenzionate a riprendersi ciò che era loro. Nel frattempo la nave stellare Idaho sta trasportando un carico prezioso: i fantocci appartenuti all'equipaggio della nave d'invasione aliena che il Capitano Kirk aveva distrutto un secolo prima. Per le furie quelle bambole sono tutto ciò che trascende la vita eterna: sono la loro anima. Per conquistarla sono pronti a tutti: usare la loro arma micidiale, quella di proiettare paura nelle menti dei loro nemici. L' Enterprise del capitano Picard e tutto il suo equipaggio vengono inviati per fronteggiare queso terribile nemico e salvare la Federazione e per farlo dovranno domare le loro più recondite paure, quelle che per secoli hanno accompagnato il cammino delle razze umane. L'invasione continua.
