#236: Ship of the Line (TNG event)

In today’s episode, a starship trying to head off a Klingon invasion suddenly finds its salad tossed and its eggs scrambled. But when its time-displaced captain plays the sympathy card to get the new Enterprise gig, the crew isn’t confident in his old-school thinking. Would the TOS era have had ship’s counselors? Does anyone in Starfleet understand how seniority works? And what’s up with the octo decapus? All this and more in Ship of the Line, the book with the most tempting mail-in offer yet!

#233: Ancient Blood (TNG, Day of Honor #1)

In today’s episode, when Worf signs up for a little light election interference, he realizes too late he double-booked. But when he asks Picard for a favor, some outdated drivers might make Alexander’s history lesson more intense than the captain expects. Can Worf cosplay as a coward? Should you launch a miniseries by immediately subverting the concept? And is it really Alexander who wants to check out his unusual lineage? All this and more in Ancient Blood, the book that has more Common Sense than common sense.

#226: House of Cards (New Frontier #1)

Today’s Star Trek is rated TV-MA for blood, gore, violence, language, self-performed face surgery, nudity, sexual situations, and Jellico.

Reader discretion is advised.

#209: Star Trek: First Contact (TNG movie)

In today’s episode, when Picard starts handing the Borg a loss at Earth, they switch to plan B: un-inventing the game. Now the Enterprise-E has to follow the Borg back into the past and make sure history’s most important pilot makes it to the air. Did redshirts peak with this installment? Who’s holding Picard accountable? And which doctor took a greater timeline liberty: McCoy or Crusher? All this and more in Star Trek: First Contact, the book that needs to clean up its Klingon armory.

#188: The Return (TOS/TNG)

This week, a Romulan with a personal vendetta un-drops the bridge on Kirk for her own nefarious ends. But she’s also doing it to help out the Borg, who hope to use him to take out their own worst enemy and assimilate the Federation (but not the Romulans, they double-pinky-swear). What use do the Borg have for an alliance with anyone? What’s behind the curtain at the Vulcan video store? And when Kirk’s not on screen, should the other characters be asking, “Where’s Jimmy?” All this and more in The Return, the book that didn’t even let the corpse get cold.
