Icebreaker (1983) – John Gardner
Ian Fleming’s 007, James Bond, is back in action in the next novel by John Gardner, like his two previous tales, they move fast, and while filled with action beats, and moments, seems, overall, to be a smaller scale than the films that were happening at the same time.

Set shortly after the events of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, Shadows on the Sun explores some of the backstory of Dr. Leonard H. McCoy, a character that has become one of my favourites over the years. It’s interesting, as a child, and teen, Kirk was always the character for me. But as I…
Star Trek: From the Depths (1993) – Victor Milan
Space, the final frontier… Like I said in previous posts, they aren’t all going to be winners, and this one was disappointing from the off for me.
