Moonlighting (1988) – Here’s Living With You, Kid, and And The Flesh Made Word
Here it is, the final pair of episodes of the fourth season of Moonlighting. Probably my least favourite so far as it kept the leads apart for almost the entire season. But, hey, with one more season let’s see what happens. The penultimate episode of the season Here’s Living With You, Kid gives us another…
Star Trek: The Final Nexus (1988) – Gene DeWeese
DeWeese’s sequel to his earlier Trek novel, Chain of Attack, is my next adventure with the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise. Much like his previous story, this tale takes place during the original five year mission, and expands nicely on the events that took place in Chain of Attack. I have only one real issue…
Moonlighting (1988) – Eek! A Spouse!, and Maddie Hayes Got Married
So Maddie (Cybill Shepherd) is married, and David (Bruce Willis) despite blowing up last week, seems to be handling the news better than the rest of the office in Eek! A Spouse! Written by Ron Osborn and Charles H. Eglee from a story by Roger Director, Kerry Ehrin, and Jeff Reno, this episode debuted on…
Star Trek: Memory Prime (1988) – Garfield and Judith Reeves-Stevens
Set during the five year mission of The Original Series, the next Trek novel I found myself exploring serves as a bit of a sequel to the episode The Lights of Zetar and is notable as the first novel written by the Reeves-Stevens couple of Garfield (referred to as Gar on the cover) and Judith….

Star Trek: Spock’s World (1988) – Diane Duane
Space, the final frontier… It’s been a while since I dove into a Star Trek novel, but I felt like it was time, and the next one on the list was this 1988 classic by Diane Duane. It was also the first Star Trek hard cover novel. Set just after the events of The Motion…
The Serpent and the Rainbow (1988) – Wes Craven
My exploration of the zombie genre with DK Canada’s eminently enjoyable Monsters in the Movies book continues with this over-fictionalized adaption of a real anthropological exploration and documentation of real-life zombies by ethnobotanist Wade Davis. Director Wes Craven used Davis’ book of the same name as the launching point for his horror film starring Bill…
Star Trek: The Three Minute Universe (1988) – Barbara Paul
Space, the final frontier… I dug into another Trek novel this week, hey, there’s a lot of them, so they’ll probably be appearing on here fairly regular, I haven’t read this one since it first came out in ’88, and I don’t remember being a big fan of it when I first joined Captain Kirk…
