In today’s episode, it’s a bunch of episodes! Fans submit their own original stories, in which Cyrano Jones finally finishes cleaning up Space Station K-7, a diplomat made good yearns to show Kirk how far she’s come along, and Sisko does an ailing race a favor by dropping off their time capsule. Does Mr. Mot dye hair in his shop? Why does nobody care that the Doctor literally got a crew member killed? And can Chakotay beat his own breakup any% PB? All this and more in Strange New Worlds, the book that knows when to activate Paranoid Mode.
This week, the Enterprise finds a recording marker from a long-lost ship, but when they seek information from the authorities of a nearby planet where works of fiction and acts of imagination are capital offenses, they get a bunch of run-around from a dude with a big gnarly scar. Soon, Picard gets his brain wiped, Geordi is in charge of protecting the ship from a horde of floating sentries, and Troi falls in with a band of cosplaying rebels while fending off some hellacious nightmares. Will Data’s poetry catch on? What is Worf keeping so tightly under wraps? And where can I get a copy of The Riker & Timoshenko Sessions? It’s the book that’s doin’ a little thing we call three-toed minty fresh logo tissue.
