#208: A Fury Scorned (TNG #43)

In today’s episode, when a colony world’s sun is about to go nova, Picard is stuck holding a plate at a buffet of Sophie’s choices. But if Data can walk as big a golf game as he talks, they might not have to make any of them. How many people have a personal connection to this planet? Is the solution somewhere out in the ocean? And hasn’t anyone ever told Picard that “Cs get degrees”? All this and more in A Fury Scorned, the book that skims a little off the top.

#203: Infiltrator (TNG #42)

In today’s episode, the Enterprise’s special guest is hiding a dirty little secret that will put their 24th-century enlightenment to the test. But they’ll need to put their squirmies aside when a new threat declares war on the Federation and a nasty virus violates humanity on a deeper level than they ever thought possible. Can Federation science cure the virus? Can it exterminate Worf’s arachnid problem? And can it pump my stomach after a wild night at Olive Garden? All this and more in Infiltrator, the book where diamonds are for never.

#197: Kahless (TNG event)

This week, a cleric’s discovery casts doubt on the veracity of the legend of Kahless. But when the figurehead emperor smells a conspiracy to overthrow Gowron, the sons of Mogh channel the boys of Hardy in their search for proof. Will the Klingon Empire spiral into a crisis of faith? Are Riker and Troi too worried about Alexander’s browser history? And what do aliens count to help fall asleep? All this and more in Kahless, the book whose mother taught it to never kiss a fool.

#196: The Soldiers of Fear (TNG #41, Invasion! #2)

This week, the Furies are back, and they’ve traded scaring the hell out of people for scaring it into them. But the Enterprise crew has to find a way in through the out door if they ever want to see snowy Idaho again. Can the Furies really be negotiated with? Are they truly as afraid of the Alpha Quadrant as the A.Q. is of them? And why aren’t they more baffled by Data? All this and more in The Soldiers of Fear, the book that reminds us why we don’t get attached to redshirts.

#191: Possession (TNG #40)

This week, a malevolent evil has returned, and this time, it’s learned how to meditate. But if Data, Worf, and Deanna can’t build a proton pack that will hold it, it’ll turn the upcoming science fair into the ultimate superspreader event. How many Earth expressions is Worf actually familiar with? How much of J.M. Dillard’s touch is really in this book? And is the redshirt death in this book the most senseless one yet? All this and more in Possession, the book that leaves ’em laughing.
