#262: The Mist (Captain’s Table #3)

In today’s episode, the DS9 crew discovers a group of people who can add and remove sprite layers to space on demand. But Sisko might have a tough time taking the man who brought the Defiant over seriously, considering the wildfire blazing in his pants region. What kind of basic is Sisko? Has stress made him forget his quadrants? And what if someone has to go to the bathroom during your story? All this and more in The Mist, the book that knows it’s always time for nachos.

#256: Far Beyond the Stars (DS9 episode)

In today’s episode, Captain Sisko learns that too much stress can actually make you travel through time. But there’s no Federation to save his 1950s counterpart from the harsh realities of systemic racism. Are the Prophets leaving Sisko Easter eggs in their visions? How many modern IPs did Benny Russell secretly come up with? And is the world ready for the kinds of dreams he writes about? All this and more in Far Beyond the Stars, the book that actually earns the reputation Star Trek thinks it has.

#253: Trapped in Time (DS9 YA #12)

In today’s episode, when a temporal physicist invents a stable portal to the past, it’s fair to say he did Nazi a twist coming. Now Jake, Nog, and Chief O’Brien must stop the time tamperer before he can put Reich what (he thinks) once went wrong. Is O’Brien exempt from suffering in kids’ books? Should this changeling be more melty? And is it really necessary to look at your dump before you flush it? All this and more in Trapped in Time, the book with a bold what-could-have-been in the casting department!

#252: Vengeance (DS9 #22)

In today’s episode, if you don’t check the veracity of scary new rumors, you’ll look really bad later if they turn out to be true. But no matter how you slice it, while you’re away, the Klingons will play, and you’d better hope the folks you left home are up to the job. Does anyone in 2023 find the Garak/Bashir ship “puzzling”? What does the reading list to just be able to understand humans look like? And is this the fall of the house of Quark? All this and more in Vengeance, the book with the cover appearance so egregious it made me coin the word readbait.

#244: Trial by Error (DS9 #21)

In today’s episode, while Quark prepares for a transaction with a new customer, Jake Sisko is itching to get his learner’s permit. But when the runabout gets knocked into the Gamma Quadrant with Ben’s baby on board, he’ll have to lay down arms to machine-learn his way to a solution. Can Kira keep the s___ of five aggrieved parties away from the fan? Is Quark making rookie mistakes? Would Sisko have been a good teacher? All this and more in Trial by Error, the book that knows there’s always time for a snooze.
