In today’s episode, Kirk takes Sulu to a pub where time passes more slowly and stories are the coin of the realm. They tell a dovetailing pair of tales about dragon tails, set twenty years apart. How much weight is the framing device pulling here? Who’s missing from the list of Kirk’s romantic conquests? And will Sulu ever have the latently homoerotic bond with Chekov that Kirk had with Spock? All this and more in War Dragons, the book where it’s the men’s fault as usual.
In today’s episode, James Kirk learns the price the mirror universe paid for one of his climactic Kirk speeches. But his captors might need to set the killing aside to put a hold on a Prime shipment that will quash the Terran/Vulcan rebellion permanently. When will the mirror universe run out of identical counterparts? Do Trill spots go all the way up, too? And did you ever think you would feel this sorry for Neelix? All this and more in Spectre, the book that does it one piece at a time.
In today’s episode, a Tal Shiar operative decides the ending of Star Trek VI needs a rewrite. But she paid so much attention to the movies that she doesn’t recognize an obscure episode of the TV show swooping in to thwart her plans. Should pets have human names? Which senior officer needs cyber-security training most badly? And what’s the best way for a hapless human to acclimate to time travel? All this and more in Assignment: Eternity, or, Call Me Ishmael Junior.
In today’s episode, even Spock would rather play than do work, but first the Enterprise crew has to eat their vegetables and face the music. When they’re all done, they can finally go chase the shiny thing, but it’s going to take a little more than some Dramamine to get to the bottom of its mysteries. Will Kirk stay committed to Starfleet service with a smile? Do schoolchildren take biology on Tyrtaeus II? And what’s so fearsome about this “northern continent”? All this and more in Heart of the Sun, the book that has the facts and is voting Yes.
In today’s episode, when unknown assailants attacking a Klingon colony literally go scorched-earth, Kirk can barely handle the heat, but agrees to stay in the kitchen. But in order to resolve the situation peacefully, it may come down to a pants-off dance-off. Does Projeff imply the existence of Amateurjeff? When will the other stroke drop? And how do you say “poop head” in Klingon? All this and more in Treaty’s Law, the book that really puts the phrase “hydrate or die-drate” to the test.
