The Mirror Universe Trilogy takes the concept introduced in the original series episode “Mirror, Mirror” and expands it into a full novel series. Spectre, Dark Victory, and Preserver, published between 1998 and 2000, follow Kirk as threats from the darker alternate universe spill into his own reality.
Co-written with William Shatner, the trilogy plays with the idea of parallel selves and the choices that make people who they are. The Mirror Universe has always been one of Star Trek’s most popular concepts, and these novels give it more depth and narrative space than any single episode could.
