    HAHAHA, ive seen the mirror universe stuff, but TBH thats my least favourite story arc in the shows.
    I was always a Fan of the federation vs klingon, the ferengi (not sure why they just interesting), and i like most the vulcan/ romulan stuff.
    Remember, it's an MMORPG

    Sci fi.
    David Webbers books are fun reads. The Honor Harrington series is good and well worth a ready by anyone who likes sci fi. Think Hornblower in space, I believe the Honor character is who Captain Janway was based on.

    Jack Campbell The lost fleet series is more military Sci-Fi, well written.

    Moving away from Military sci fi
    C.J. Cherryh The Chanur Saga are some of the best sci fi books I've read recently. If you like star trak I'm certain you will love this, however this will be a much heavier read.

    Alan Steele, Coyote is about a man trapped on an alian planet trying to get home and is also a good read.

    In general if you are after fun easy reads anything by David Webber or David Drake is good.

    If you liked Herberts Rama series I would also recommend the Evergence Trilogy and the Orphans Trilogy by Sean Williams & Shane Dix
