Books like Star Trek Challenger - Gateways - Chainmail by Diane Carey
Dangerous remnants of an extinct interstellar civilization, the Gateways link the Alpha Quadrant to the farthest reaches of the galaxy. Hidden in remote corners, these ancient portals could revolutionize space travel—or serve as an entrance for an extraterrestrial invasion. Twenty years ago, alien vessels vanished into a massive Gateway near Belle Terre, and the descendants of those aliens have now returned, equipped with advanced weapons and abilities. Captain Nick Keller, already working hard to maintain peace in a troubled sector, must confront a hostile alien fleet driven by fanatical goals.
