#201: Aftershock (TOS YA #2)

In today’s episode, when a game of touch football goes out of bounds, Leonard McCoy loses his winter break and gains some community service hours. But on his first tour of volunteer duty, the disasters may not be as natural as they seem. How old is McCoy supposed to be here? What’s the technical term for fear of transporters? And which sport is deader in the future: baseball or football? All this and more in Aftershock, the book that only seems to be telling one side of the story.

#200: The Joy Machine (TOS #80)

In today’s episode, Kirk’s new pal Stinky Wizzleteats is going to teach him to be happy, and it’ll teach his grandmother to suck eggs. But when the PAL 9000 unveils its plans for galactic expansion, Kirk will have to figure out how to take the people of Timshel beyond Pleasuredome. What kind of garbage agents is the Federation hiring these days? What the heck is a wampus? And has a smooth operator slid into the Enterprise’s DMs? All this and more in The Joy Machine, the book that’s rubbed elbows with Teddy and Freddy!

#197: Crisis on Vulcan (TOS YA #1)

This week, when Sarek and Spock catch a celebrity Uber back to Vulcan, the latter leaves a glowing five-star review, and the feeling’s mutual. But when some customers who aren’t so satisfied with Sarek’s services begin targeting his family, it’s up to Spock to figure out how to make it right for the client. Can Spock win the approval of his peers? Does he want to? Should he want to? And will bigotry actually save his life? All this and more in Crisis on Vulcan, the book with perhaps an even harder sell than Sarek’s.

#194: First Strike (TOS #79, Invasion! #1)

This week, an invading force arrives with One Weird Trick for losing weight, but the Klingons are more concerned with the boogeyman that just jumped out of the closet. But if the Enterprise wants any data on the new arrivals, they may have to dig into their own lore first. What newspaper comics are still known in the 23rd century? How many middle initials does Kirk have floating around out there? And is Carey the right Diane for this job? All this and more in First Strike, the first book of the Invasion! saga, or as I like to call it, The Rath Cycle.

#189: The Rings of Tautee (TOS #78)

This week, when a scientist’s quest to give her people unlimited fusion power goes horribly awry, at least the explosion is pretty. But when Kirk wants to rescue as many survivors as he can, he learns that two’s company, three’s a Prime Directive violation. Can Jim keep his friend happy? Can the Enterprise keep the disaster from spreading to Earth? And can I keep Dan Forden from living rent-free in my head? All this and more in The Rings of Tautee, the book that won’t inspire any baby names anytime soon.
