Negh'Var.
With technical details, operational histories and annotated plan views, the book shows the evolution and development of the fleet in sumptuous CG renders, and is the most comprehensive collection of Klingon ships ever produced.

In this third volume, the ships of the Klingon fleet are explored from their first appearances in all the Star Trek television series through their most recent appearances in the hit new series Star Trek: Discovery.
