The eBook-only series, called Star Trek S.C.E., features the original adventures of the Starfleet Corps of Engineers. Their motto: Have Tech. Will Travel. It represents the first time that content from Star Trek has been published electronically without a prior or simultaneous print publication. Judith Curr, President of Pocket Books said, ``We are thrilled to present this exciting new Star Trek eBook series. Our Star Trek titles are the most successful series in both electronic and traditional publishing, and offering Star Trek S.C.E. exclusively to eBook readers is a perfect match of form and content for this expanding market.''
