I have loved Star Trek: The Motion Picture since the first time I saw it in 1979. I remember the theatre I was in, I remember being swept up by the music and imagery, it blew my young little mind, and just made me love the characters, especially the Enterprise all the more. My fascination…

Star Trek: Mind Meld (1997) – John Vornholt
Set shortly after the events of The Undiscovered Country, John Vornholt’s novel shoves Spock into the limelight on an adventure that pairs him with a young Vulcan girl named Teska, and is a precursor to his work in reunifying Vulcans and Romulans. Through a weird series of familial relations, Teska refers to Spock as her…
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds – Season 2 4K Steelbook
I loved Star Trek: Strange New Worlds when it debuted. The first season introduced us to new and familiar characters and put us aboard a beloved, but different, starship, the Enterprise. Anson Mount leads the cast as Captain Christopher Pike, and the first season won its way into hearts of fans and critics across the…
Star Trek: The Next Generation – The Children of Hamlin (1988) – Carmen Carter
Space, the final frontier… So here I am three novels into the original novels released by Pocket Book (Simon & Schuster) and to date, this one feels like the best one I’ve read. Although I think when I read this when it first came out, it probably didn’t catch my interest as much as it…
Star Trek: Picard – Season 3 Blu-Ray
What could arguably be the best season of Star Trek featuring The Next Generation crew, comes to physical media today from Paramount Canada; Star Trek: Picard – Season 3 hits Blu-ray and DVD, and the ten-episode series is a perfect bow not only on the past seasons of Picard, but of the entire Next Generation…
Star Trek: Avenger (1997) – William Shatner with Garfield and Judith Reeves-Stevens
The Reeves-Stevens help William Shatner tell his next Star Trek tale, the third in his Shatner-verse stories. This time out, despite his continued work to make sure that James T. Kirk is still the smartest, bravest, strongest and most desirable man in the room, the story ties together a lot of interesting ideas and melds…
Star Trek: The Next Generation – The Peacekeepers (1988) – Gene DeWeese
The second original novel in The Next Generation book series came out om September of 1988, two months before the premiere of season two. The crew of the Enterprise comes across a strange derelict starship and when Data and LaForge investigate they are transported away, leaving Captain Picard and the rest struggling to find out…
Star Trek: Mudd In Your Eye (1997) – Jerry Oltion
Harcourt ‘Harry’ Fenton Mudd is back to cause trouble for Captain Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise in Jerry Oltion’s Mudd In Your Eye, set during the original five-year mission, the tale ties into the previous Mudd episode, “I, Mudd” and arguably before (?) the animated series episode “Mudd’s Passion”. The Enterprise is requested…
Star Trek: The Next Generation – Ghost Ship (1988) – Diane Carey
Diane Carey can be forgiven for a lot of the portrayals in Ghost Ship, the first novel in The Next Generation series released by Pocket Books following the novelization of the pilot episode. The book was largely written before there was any casting in place, and she could only rely on the show’s bible to…
