#280: Enterprise (TOS #87, My Brother’s Keeper 3/3)

In today’s episode, Kirk finally gets let in on a secret he’s been shut out of for over a decade. But when actual ridge-headed Klingons get loose on his Enterprise, he has to figure out how to clean up a TNG-level spill with a TOS mop. How much of this trilogy is actually brotherly keeping by volume? Will book Klingons ever fully escape Ford’s shadow? And was there ever a more satisfying team to root against than the late-90s Yankees? All this and more in Enterprise, the book that features scenes from an Italian restaurant.

#190: Star Trek: Klingon (video game novelization)

In today’s episode, Chancellor Gowron leads a conference to figure out how to give the galaxy a crash course in Klingons. But when the official talks start to melt like an unattended jumja stick, his stories at the lunch table might provide another path to victory. Can you even get a salad from a star system with no planets? How good an ace up your sleeve is the video game for Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon? And what one thing will secure its place in blessed Trek memory? All this and more in Star Trek: Klingon, the book that can get you two of some things.

#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.

#241: Honor Bound (DS9 YA #11, Day of Honor)

In today’s episode, Alexander is growing hair and losing his temper in unusual places. But when his grandparents prove out of their depth, Worf returns from Deep Space Nine to help him lawyer up before he hits the gym. When did Worf suddenly become a good dad? How much of Klingon nature would ADHD explain? And how badly are Alexander’s teachers dropping the ball? All this and more in Honor Bound, the book that’s done more homework than its students.

#240: Treaty’s Law (TOS, Day of Honor #4)

In today’s episode, when unknown assailants attacking a Klingon colony literally go scorched-earth, Kirk can barely handle the heat, but agrees to stay in the kitchen. But in order to resolve the situation peacefully, it may come down to a pants-off dance-off. Does Projeff imply the existence of Amateurjeff? When will the other stroke drop? And how do you say “poop head” in Klingon? All this and more in Treaty’s Law, the book that really puts the phrase “hydrate or die-drate” to the test.
