About the translator
Ester Lüken, born in 1982 in Sweden, living in Germany since 2010, has been learning Klingon since 2018 and quickly achieved a good proficiency in the Klingon language. She is a regular visitor of the Klingon language Meeting in Germany, called qepHom, so she had a good start for learning the language. She is also active outside of that meeting and enjoys translating different kinds of works. In 2020 she wrote several poems for the Klingon magazine called Qugh.
