The Scotty! is a brilliant collection of stories crafted by Eric J. Hildeman. He takes a memory for Star Trek enthusiasts – the concept of teletransportation – and builds it into a complex, multi-faceted creation with serious, unanticipated side effects.

Though each story can stand alone, Hildeman cleverly weaves them together to bring the reader to an unexpected and thought-provoking conclusion. Hildeman reminds us about the wonders of scientific exploration – as well as their darker side.
