    We Have Engaged the Borg: The Oral History of the Battle of Wolf 359 by

    Summary

    On stardate 43975.2, Starbase 23 received a distress signal from the New Providence research colony on Jouret IV. The garbled transmission spoke of a large cube-like vessel that had entered the system and destroyed the small number of colony defense ships. The last transmission before all contact was lost showed a massive, black monolithic shape slowly descending over the colony.

    Although not widely known outside the upper echelons of Starfleet Command, this was the Borg: a powerful race of cybernetic lifeforms, first encountered a year prior by the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701D, c. J-L Picard) over 7,000 light-years away.

    What was to follow over the following days would rock the Federation to its very core: the destruction of 39 starships at Wolf 359, the loss of over 11,000 sapients, and Earth – the seat of the UFP Government and home of Starfleet – threatened with total assimilation.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This is a REALLY REALLY GOOD Trek fan work— it's way beyond what most people would call a 'fic'. This is a full oral history of Wolf 359 and its consequences, a deep and engaging narrative.

    Summary

    Some people know the reason they fight. Some people find a cause and choose to fight for it. Some fight for just the sake of it. Some are just there, swept up in the zeitgeist. (Also known as Cipher, but he's written like BJ Blaskowitz)

    Summary

    "There is an expression in the Dustlands: 'Old World Blues'. It refers to those so obsessed with the past they can't see the present, much less the future, for what it is."
    One woman, armed with a relic of a world before the ash, a veteran of Oceania, faces the fires of war once more as they burn down her own home, leaving her stuck with one reoccurring thought: why?
