Fractured history. Broken lives. Splintered souls. Since the alternate universe was first glimpsed in the classic episode "Mirror, Mirror," something about Star Trek's dark side has beckoned us, called to us, tempted us -- like forbidden fruit on the Tree of Knowledge. To taste it is to lose oneself in a world of startling familiarity and terrifying contradictions, where everything and everyone we knew is somehow disturbingly different, and where shocking secrets await their revelation. What began in 2007 with Glass Empires and Obsidian Alliances -- the first truly in-depth foray into the turbulent history of this other continuum -- now continues in twelve new short tales that revisit and expand upon that so-called "Mirror Universe," spanning all five of the core incarnations of Star Trek, as well as their literary offshoots, across more than two hundred years of divergent history, as chronicled by...

Love and Hate. Faith and Doubt. Guilt and Innocence. Peace and War. Few television series have embraced this symphony of contradictions on the epic scale of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. From the vastness of space to the darkest depths of the soul, from the clash of empires to the struggles of conscience, from the crossroads of a galaxy to the convergence of hearts -- that seven-year journey was both universal and personal, challenging its audience with stories and characters that redefined Star Trek's Human Adventure for all time. PATHWAYS TRAVELED...The widowed father struggling to rebuild his shattered life, reborn as a religious icon to millions of believers. CHALLENGES CONQUERED...The resistance fighter who aided her former oppressors in their struggle for liberation and emerged as the leader she never imagined herself becoming. TRUTHS REVEALED...The orphaned alien whose quest for his own identity became the salvation of a quadrant. Rediscover this extraordinary saga in a landmark collection of tales that confronts assumptions, divulges secrets, and asks as many questions as it answers. These stories, entwined with familiar episodes, reveal the world of Deep Space Nine anew as told by Christopher L. Bennett * Keith R.A. DeCandido * Heather Jarman * Jeffrey Lang * Michael A. Martin and Andy Mangels * Una McCormack * Terri Osborne * Andrew J. Robinson * Kevin G. Summers * Geoffrey Thorne
Alla fine degli anni Trenta, con la conquista dell'Etiopia e la proclamazione dell'Impero, l'Italia fascista sente il bisogno di affiancare alla nuova coscienza imperiale degli italiani anche una coscienza razziale. Ben presto dal "razzismo africano" si passerà all'antisemitismo, e nel 1938 in pochi mesi si arriverà alle fatidiche leggi razziali che equivalsero alla "morte civile" per gli ebrei, banditi da scuole, luoghi di lavoro, esercito, ed espropriati delle loro attività. Tutti gli italiani "ariani" aderirono, dai piccoli balilla che non salutavano più i compagni, a gente comune e alti accademici che volsero le spalle agli ex amici. La bella gioventù dell'epoca (universitari, giornalisti e professionisti in erba) rappresentò l'avanguardia del razzismo fascista. Molti di loro avrebbero costituito l'ossatura della classe dirigente della Repubblica, ma quasi tutti in quel quinquennio furono contagiati dal virus antisemita. Ecco perché per circa sessant'anni c'è stata una sorta di autoassoluzione nazionale che gli storici non hanno pienamente rivisto. Per restituirci un'immagine più veritiera dell'atteggiamento della popolazione di fronte alla persecuzione dei connazionali ebrei, Avagliano e Palmieri hanno scandagliato un'enorme mole di fonti.
