The Klingon Way

A Warrior's Guide

By: Marc Okrand

Narrated by: Michael Dorn, Roxann Dawson

"Revenge is a dish best served cold."

-- Klingon proverb

For many years, Klingons have been the premier warriors in the galaxy. Regarded across known space with fear and awe, few beings understand the true depth and greatness of the Klingon culture.

"Four thousand throats may be cut in one night by a running man."

-- Klingon proverb

Noted Klingon language and cultural expert Marc Okrand collects the wisdom of these great warriors, taking proverbs and quotes from some of its greatest thinkers and bringing Klingon philosophy to lesser races across the galaxy.© and (P)1996 Paramount Pictures, All Rights Reserved; AUDIOWORKS Is an Imprint of Simon & Schuster Audio Division, Simon & Schuster Inc.

A book every Star Trek fan should own.

Shame it's short, still, the references to episodes of the various series, and having two Klingon actors involved makes it worth it.

hmmm Not Sure

I am not sure what I was looking for when I got this book, nor am I sure whether it met my expectations. I will go with saying there was an element of interesting. I guess I was hoping for something more along the lines of "Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun".

Klingon Proverbs

For a real Trekker this is a treat my only complaint is Ms Dawson seemed hesitate when speaking Klingon.

An excellent list of Klingon sayings.

"The Klingon Way" is an excellent source of Star Trek lore as well as Klingon sayings and information about Klingon culture. That said, the listener should not expect to hear properly spoken Klingon. Although Michael Dorn and Roxann Dawson played Klingons for Star Trek and did their best when narrating this book, they are not Klingon speakers, and many of the Klingon words are not pronounced properly.

It Is A Good Day To Listen

If you're a Star Trek fan who's looking for something amusing/funny/mockable/entertaining to listen for a while, like on a leg of a road trip, this is great. Very honorable.
