Dilithium. In crystalline form, the most valuable mineral in the galaxy. It powers the Federation’s starships…and the Klingon Empire’s battlecruisers. Now on a small, out-of-the-way planet named Direidi, the greatest fortune in dilithium crystals ever seen has been found.

Under the terms of the Organian Peace Treaty, the planet will go to the side best able to develop the planet and its resourses. Each side will contest the prize with the prime of its fleet. For the Federation — Captain James T. Kirk and the Starship Enterprise. For the Klingons — Captain Kaden vestai-Oparai and the Fire Blossom.

Only the Direidians are writing their own script for this contest — script that propels the crew of the Starship Enterprise into their strangest adventure yet!

Notes

  • Nearly all the colonists with speaking parts are based on the author's friends and fellow-writers, including Pamela Dean, Neil Gaiman, Diane Duane, Peter Morwood, and Janet Kagan.
  • "How Much For Just The Planet?" was used in Diane Duane's "Young Wizards Series" as the title of an alien TV show.
