Devil World – A Star Trek Tale of Temptation and Technology

Embark on a perilous journey with the crew of the Enterprise in Devil World, a gripping Star Trek eBook by Gordon Eklund. When Captain Kirk encounters the enigmatic senso-artist Gilla Dupree during shore leave at Starbase 13, he becomes entwined in a mission to locate her missing father, Jacob Kell. Their search leads them to Heartland—a quarantined planet shrouded in mystery and madness. From the outset, Devil World immerses readers in a narrative where ancient technology and emotional entanglements collide.​

Unveiling the Secrets of Heartland

Heartland, once a thriving colony, now lies abandoned after its settlers succumbed to insanity. Despite the dangers, Kirk and his team venture to the planet, uncovering the Danons—a diminutive, devil-like species—and their creation: the Great Machine. This supercomputer, designed to preserve the Danons’ legacy, seeks new hosts to sustain its existence. However, most who encounter it lose their sanity. Jacob Kell, Gilla’s father, is among the few who resisted. Moreover, Gilla, battling a terminal illness, chooses to merge with the Machine, sacrificing herself to free her father. Kirk’s rescue attempt nearly costs him his life, compelling him to recommend the planet’s continued quarantine.​

A Conflict of Logic and Emotion

Devil World delves into the complexities of duty, love, and sacrifice. While Spock’s logic is tested by the Great Machine’s influence, McCoy’s empathy underscores the human cost of their mission. Additionally, the narrative examines the ethical implications of artificial intelligence and the lengths one will go for family. The interplay between technology and emotion is central, offering readers a thought-provoking experience.​
