Star Trek Shipyards: The Borg and the Delta Quadrant, Volume 1 - Akritirian to Krenim
This volume begins with the ships operated by STAR TREK's greatest villains: the Borg, including the Borg Cube and Sphere, the Borg Queen's Ship, the Renegade Borg Vessel and the Borg Tactical Cube. From there, it profiles more than thirty-five ships operated by the species Voyager encountered in the Delta Quadrant, featuring ships from A - Akritirian to K - Krenim.
With technical overviews and operational histories, the ships are illustrated with CG artwork - including original VFX models made for the show.
The vessels include warships, fighters, transports, hospital ships, patrol ships, racing ships, and shuttles. Each ship is illustrated with CG artwork, including original VFX models made for the TV show, and is presented with its technical data and operational history. A size chart showing Borg ships to scale is included, and an appendix of listings for each ship’s debut appearance, and of other appearances throughout the Star Trek series.

Another of the Star Trek Shipyard book and as with the others in the series packed with ship designs and details. As with the other titles there are a blend of customer artwork and TV show screen grabs however they are all of a very high standard and none of the low-res images other books of this genre are plagued by.
There is a huge section in this book dedicated to the borg of various types (as the title eludes to) and I am pleased to say they are all given the same level of detail. Of course with any book relating to a TV series it very quickly dates itself while there are more productions going on - and with the fate of the publishing series in-doubt I suspect we will not see many updates forthcoming.
However even this production is packed with information much of which I am tempted to go back and re-watch just so I can try and spot the vessel in question.

An excellent source for anyone watching the Voyager Series and beyond. One of 3 new volumes I got to complete the 6 volume Shipyards set. High quality work! This volume has 227 pages.
