Star Trek: The Official Guide to the Animated Series (2019) – Aaron Harvey, and Rich Schepis

Star Trek: Federation (1994) – Judith & Garfield Reeves-Stevens
This week’s journey where no one has gone before is an epic novel that combines adventures with the crew of James T. Kirk’s Enterprise, with those of Jean-Luc Picard’s tying it in with the life of Zefram Cochrane, and the efforts of one of Colonel Green’s cadre, Colonel Thorsen. With a wrap-around story that takes…
Star Trek: The Starship Trap (1993) – Mel Gilden
Set during the original five year mission of the U.S.S. Enterprise, Mel Gilden’s Trek novel is one I really enjoyed. He totally has the characters down, and not only could I hear the characters in my head, I could see everything in my mind’s eye playing out like an episode. Captain Kirk is less than…
Star Trek: The Disinherited (1992) – Peter David, Michael Jan Friedman, and Robert Greenberger
The Human Adventure continues as I delve into another Star Trek novel, and revel in the storytelling that actually feels like an episode (or several) of The Original Series. Set during the original five year mission, the three authors work to craft a tale that works as a cohesive whole while giving us separate story…

Airing on 13 June, 1993, the episode is a strong Kira (Nana Visitor) story that proves that season one of Deep Space Nine was stronger than the first of The Next Generation. A…
