I&rsquo;ve just read a book where he gets his brain stolen and then&hellip;. eaten! <span style="mso-spacerun:yes;">&nbsp;</span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal;">Night of the Living Trekkies</i>, by Kevin David Anderson and Sam Stall is the perfect book for Star Trek fans and readers of zombie fiction. In other words a super nerd book!

I admit I wasn&rsquo;t expecting much and was pleasantly proven wrong. True fans will find nods to the franchise throughout including an ending that could have been written by the shows creators.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:small;"><img height="120" width="79" src="http://contentcafe2.btol.com/ContentCafe/Jacket.aspx?UserID=III21&amp;Password=BT0005&amp;Return=T&amp;Type=S&amp;Value=9781594744631&amp;erroroverride=1" alt="book jacket" style="float:left;" /></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;"><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:small;">I don&rsquo;t want to give away too much of the plot so I will just say that if you ever attend a Star Trek Convention you might want to pay careful attention to the Targ heart.
