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.

All this and more in The Black Shore, the book that features some hair-raising cuisine.

Why is Dax spacing out all the time? And don’t you hate it when Kai Winn is right? All this and more in Wrath of the Prophets, the book that pours kerosene on the “O’Brien is the worst husband ever” fire.
In today’s episode, Cadet Troi’s freshman year is off to a rough start, and if it isn’t one thing, it’s her mother.

How do hiccups feel to a Trill? And how much setup is too much for one pun? All this and more in Intellivore, the book that demonstrates the value of (ab)using your noggin.
In today’s episode, when Voyager’s latest grocery run puts them on holy ground, the natives are surprisingly chill about it.

When would Voyager need to start seriously considering a coupling regimen? And will Chakotay dare to tarnish his immaculate “being uninteresting” streak?
