Star Trek: The Ashes of Eden (1995) – William Shatner, with Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens
This week, I take my first step into what became known as the Shatner-verse, a series of Star Trek novels written by Captain Kirk himself, with the aid of Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens. Set some months after the events of The Undiscovered Country but before the opening of Generations, Kirk isn’t doing to well with…
Star Trek: Traitor Winds (1994) – L.A. Graf
This week’s Trek novel takes us back to the The Lost Years, those years set between the end of the Enterprise’s original five year mission, and the events of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. While some of the crew are wandering around in their TOS uniforms, the new uniforms are present as well. This time…
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: Shell Game (1993) – Melissa Crandall
It took me a little longer to get into this one than I would have liked, but once I was into it, I really enjoyed this, the next novel in the Pocket Books series of Star Trek novels. Set after the events of The Motion Picture, but far enough along in the timeline to have…
Star Trek: The Kelvin Timeline (2009 – 2016)
Space… There was a lot of it between the end of Star Trek: Enterprise in 2005 and the next Human Adventure. For the first time since 1987, there were no Star Trek series or films in production. It was strange for a number of fans, though a large percentage of them realised that it was…
Star Trek: Probe (1992) – Margaret Wander Bonanno
Supposedly set a few weeks after the events of The Voyage Home, Probe is the next book in PocketBooks Star Trek series. I personally like to push it to just after The Final Frontier, because the Enterprise seems to be working without any real problems. The probe after reestablishing contact with the cetacean lifeforms on…
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier (1989) – J.M. Dillard
The next novel that I picked up on the Star Trek list, was the adaptation of the fifth film, The Final Frontier. The film was much maligned and slighted, and some of it for good cause, though one could argue that there is a Trek story in there, and it does have some of the…
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1998) – Image in the Sand, and Shadows and Symbols
Station log: stardate unknown Ira Steven Behr and Hand Beimler pen the season seven opener that ties in directly to the final episode of last season, with the wormhole aliens, or the Prophets as the Bajoran religion refers to them, still cut off from Bajor, and from their Emissary, Captain Benjamin Sisko (Avery Brooks) after…
Star Trek: Final Frontier (1988) – Diane Carey
The Human Adventure continues… I’ve mentioned before that when I was growing up in Bermuda, Trek books were a big thing for me. I would hit the local shops, tracking down novels as they were released, and hunting down ones I’d missed. I remember when this one came out, it was the third in the…
