#267: Q-Strike (TNG #49)

In today’s episode, the Faal family comes down with a nasty case of silver eye, and Zero breaks out of galactic confinement as Q’s PowerPoint finally reaches its last slide. But it will take a blast of minty fresh breath to counter Zero’s hot air. Why is Picard so slow on the uptake? What kind of damage can writing too much Q do to your prose? And has my teaching career coincidentally prepared me for this moment? All this and more in Q-Strike, the book that’s on its way to get some head.

#266: Q-Zone (TNG #48)

In today’s episode, Riker realizes the only way to get the Calamarain off his back might be a little cloud-on-cloud action. Meanwhile, Picard continues to squirm in his front-row seat to Q’s early struggles with peer pressure. Is Q wearing a Starfleet uniform stolen valor? What does civilian parlance reveal about their attitudes about various races? And what are the contents of a soiled Q diaper? All this and more in Q-Zone, the book that doesn’t know “The Laughing Vulcan and His Dog”, but if you hum a few bars…

#265: Q-Space (TNG #47)

In today’s episode, Picard won’t call off an experiment at the galactic barrier just because Q says he should. But when Q yoinks Picard off the Enterprise to show him some home movies, the rest of the crew has to figure out how to make the clouds stop raining on their parade. Why are most tactical officers so trigger-happy? What guises has Q hung out on Earth in? And what did Guinan do to make Q’s wife big-mad? All this and more in Q-Space, the book that’s made possible in part by Viewers Like You. Thank you.

#264: Strange New Worlds (anthology)

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.

#261: Dujonian’s Hoard (Captain’s Table #2)

In today’s episode, when Starfleet sends Picard in search of an AWOL captain, he picks Worf for his plus-one. But the search-and-rescue doubles as a treasure hunt, and the first one to find it will be singing glor’ya, glor’ya, hallelujah. Can MJF get away with putting his prose in characters’ mouths? How well does naming characters after things near you on your desk work out? And did Picard’s quarry go through some changes after leaving Starfleet? All this and more in Dujonian’s Hoard, the book that spares the Bolian (sort of).
