These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise… I dug into another Trek novel this week, and for the most part I enjoyed it, or at least the way it tied into The Original Series. Set during the original five year mission, this novel serves as a bit of a sequel to the episodes Miri,…

Star Trek: The Lost Years (1989) – J.M. Dillard
So what happened to James T. Kirk, Spock, McCoy and the rest after the close of their five year mission and before the events depicted in The Motion Picture? This week, I start to find out with the next instalment in the Pocket Books series. I think I have read this one before, as I…
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: Double, Double (1989) – Michael Jan Friedman
Space, the final frontier… My ongoing voyages with the starship Enterprise continue this week with the next non-canon novel in the Pocket Books series. Set during the original five year mission, this novel is set a few months after the events of The Original Series episode “What Little Girls Are Made Of?” Captain James T….
Star Trek: Vulcan’s Glory (1989) – D.C. Fontana
Space, the final frontier… I dove into another Trek novel from Pocket Books this week, and this was one I wouldn’t have read when I was younger despite the fact that it was penned by one of the writers of The Original Series, D.C. Fontana. In fact this was the only Trek novel she wrote…
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…
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…
Star Trek: Discovery Season 2 (2019) – Blu-Ray
Is Discovery Star Trek? That argument is going to be carrying on for awhile. I just know that I will continue to watch it, and I also know that the second season was a huge step up from the sometimes shakey first season. And now, Paramount Pictures is boldly going by releasing the second season…
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…
