#237: The Chance Factor (VOY YA #2)

In today’s episode, animal husbandry looks to be Janeway’s last hope for staying enrolled in the Academy. But the toughest specimens to wrangle might well be two male pigs. What’s considered “disabled” for a Betazoid? Is getting research grants harder or easier in a moneyless society? And how subtle is this book’s aim for the female demographic? All this and more in The Chance Factor, or, Tango & Kath.

#231: Lifeline (VOY YA #1)

In today’s episode, Janeway brought some baggage with her to the Academy, and I don’t just mean her duffel bag full of coffee. But unless she can pull her head out of her butt long enough to make a friend that isn’t a hologram, her Starfleet career might end before it even starts. Is Starfleet Academy a multiverse hub? Does the replicator know what’s good for you better than you do? And how many bonded-twin races can one galaxy hold? All this and more in Lifeline, the book that knows how to game the system but isn’t telling.

#223: The Black Shore (VOY #13)

CW: one mention of rape (but it’s buried in a footnote, so you don’t have to look at it)

In today’s episode, a well-timed pop-up ad makes Janeway think it might be time for shore leave. But their hosts’ culture and behavior raise a lot of questions with some shocking answers. What do Chakotay and Kes’s visions mean? What happens if you insult Janeway’s dog? And why are musicians still using wooden reeds in the 24th century? All this and more in The Black Shore, the book that features some hair-raising cuisine.

#219: Chrysalis (VOY #12)

In today’s episode, when Voyager’s latest grocery run puts them on holy ground, the natives are surprisingly chill about it. But when they make off with an ensign who gets their old-time religion, Janeway only has until the Rapture to get her back. How much weight do the needs of the many carry in the Delta Quadrant? When would Voyager need to start seriously considering a coupling regimen? And will Chakotay dare to tarnish his immaculate “being uninteresting” streak? All this and more in Chrysalis, the book that spills the Kazon tea.

#217: The Garden (VOY #11)

In today’s episode, if Voyager’s next rest stop doesn’t have a decent snack selection, they won’t make it to another one. But when the natives take an acute interest in their transporter tech, Janeway has to decide if a full pantry is worth the trade. Why is Voyager always so chill about classism? What’s the deal with the one human on the planet? And whose leola root stew did Joie Sakhlova pee in? All this and more in The Garden, or, I Can’t Believe It’s Not British!
