    Spoilers Picard 1x1, "Remembrance"

    Goodness, what to say, so much to take in. as people have said, beautiful cinematography. Looks to be clearly a long format TV show developed over season rather than older series episodic. I had to adjust to Sir Patrick acting - he's clearly an elderly man and I was not always enthused...

    New to books, here's my start

    I have now read Titan: Taking Wing. I began enjoying this book most in its final third as the Romulus story developed. A lot of the early book is obviously spent introducing a lot of new characters to Riker's new command. I had to adjust to something things, as I got slightly stuck think about a...

    Troi and diplomacy

    Funnily enough I'm reading Titan: Taking Wing and this just cropped up with Klingon General Khegh refusing Troi to come aboard his ship for talks.

    Troi and diplomacy

    Having thought about what's on screen and in books I was thinking about the frequency with which Troi is involved in diplomatic meetings. If the other side knew she was Betazoid (told or realised from info or irises) why would you allow her to be part of any negotiations which allowed...

    I've now finished reading Death in Winter. I was interested in the storyline about Romulus. I remain uninterested in anything to do with Beverley Crusher or how much Picard fancies her. I just find her a boring character that I don't want to learn more about. On to the next book....

    New to books, here's my start

    So I just finished watching Nemesis. It's actually the first time I've seen it since original release (avoided watching again as thought it weak on first watch). I didn't hate it too much this time around. On to the next book...

    Would it be better to read the Nemesis book or watch the movie? I've now completed A Time for War. Mixed feelings about it. I could see the point of somethings in wrapping up a story but they didn't necessarily enthuse me. I first got worried when an early chapter was almost entirely spent on a...

    most disappointing Trek movie?

    I actually quite like TUC but that's mainly down to the assassination scenes and the trial scenes. Rest of movie, meh.

    I've now completed A Time to Kill and A Time to Heal. I felt Heal was the better written book. Kill seemed more like a screenplay to me.

    Have the PICARD prequel tie-ins been announced as "Canon"?

    But having said that I'm not 100% of what's on screen is canon if you mean continuity so....

    Have the PICARD prequel tie-ins been announced as "Canon"?

    I've a feeling things are as they are until they appear on screen. I generally like continuity but perhaps we need just to treat them as related and intertwined rather than canon

    New to books, here's my start

    I've now acquired all the books advised on a new Kindle Oasis bought for the purpose! It's interesting experience so far - I feel myself less reading a book so much as envisaging what I'm reading as being on screen or movie. I guess that's probably due to being some familiarised with screen body...

    New to books, here's my start

    Hi friends I've now finished watching all the series on Netflix and am going to try and read a few books. I'm very overwhelmed looking at it. I understand some books are a lot better than others. But I've tried to read what advice I can see and have listed the book order I intend to start my...
