#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).

#259: Spectre (Shatnerverse)

In today’s episode, James Kirk learns the price the mirror universe paid for one of his climactic Kirk speeches. But his captors might need to set the killing aside to put a hold on a Prime shipment that will quash the Terran/Vulcan rebellion permanently. When will the mirror universe run out of identical counterparts? Do Trill spots go all the way up, too? And did you ever think you would feel this sorry for Neelix? All this and more in Spectre, the book that does it one piece at a time.

#258: Planet X (TNG)

In today’s episode, a busted gadget brings the X-Men back to the 24th century, though you probably weren’t around for the first episode. Nevertheless, here they are, arriving just in time to render aid to a planet that’s starting to go through its own mutant growing pains. Which X-Person’s fault is it that they’re stranded here? Will it ever not be weird for Data to smile? And how much bridge conversation is pointless small talk? All this and more in Planet X, the book that’s selling the cure, but no one’s buying.

#255: Deceptions (TNG YA #14)

In today’s episode, when Data’s quadmates celebrate his Omicron Theta-versary, the idea that lying can be used for good blue-screens his ethics programming. But he’ll have to learn the nuance quickly if he hopes to foil some scientists’ psychic invasion plans. Who does an android read for fun? Which terrible unconventional name spellings will survive into the future? And how did the YA line fare overall? All this and more in Deceptions, the book brought to you by the Acme Corporation!
