The Kobayashi Maru by Julia Ecklar

The Kobayashi Maru (1989) by Julia Ecklar is a Star Trek pulp fiction book. I picked it up because the Kobayashi Maru scenario was a cool part in the new Star Trek movie and was a semi-important part of the Wrath of Khan.

Essentially the scenario tests Starfleet cadets responses to a no-win scenario. In the book we're treated to Kirk, Chekov, Sulu, and Scotty's (yes, even Scotty) "solutions" for the scenario.

I can't say the book was good, but it was fun.
