    Star Trek Timelines

    I have tried other games in the past and gotten bored very quickly. Especially the type where you have to build everything under the sun and after the first two or three it takes hours unless you want to dump in a bunch of cash. With Timelines I find there is always something to keep me...

    ten milestone Trek novels on What Culture

    While Christopher's assessment regarding Spock's World is not incorrect, I will admit that it was not what I was thinking of. Rather to me the novel represents the first time that a Trek novel attempted to grow beyond merely replicating the what was shown on the television and movie screen. With...

    ten milestone Trek novels on What Culture

    An interesting list although I admit that I personally consider the lack of inclusion for either Strangers From The Sky and/or Spock's World to be a fairly major oversight.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Boldly Go Comic Series Review Thread

    The typo that I find more amusing occurs in this issue. On the title page the character of Murcia is listed as Murica.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Boldly Go Comic Series Review Thread

    I enjoyed issue six for the most part. I wish they would have given it two issues, just to let things breath a bit. The art was really good though. It reminded me of early Frank Miller (before he became so ridiculously hyperstyleized) and Norm Breyfogle.

    Spoilers Section 31: Control by David Mack Review Thread

    I'm not by most standard definitions a religious person. I was raised in a faith that as I got older did not fit me. I have an eclectic collection of beliefs about the nature of reality that I have generally found proven true enough to satisfy me, but I wouldn't call any of that a "faith" in the...

    Spoilers TNG: Headlong Flight by Dayton Ward Review Thread

    It is only tangentially part of a meta narrative about the Enterprise E crew getting back to exploration after the events of Destiny, and The Typhon Pact, and The Fall. Anything you need to know is laid out concisely during the course of the story.

    Spoilers TNG: Headlong Flight by Dayton Ward Review Thread

    I voted above average. I enjoyed it. The sense of the Enterprise D and Bloodied Talon crews as having lives beyond the story of the moment was well done. But I felt that the tension dissipated in the final act. Some of that I think is almost inevetable. Unless the Romulans or the alien of the...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Prey Trilogy - general discussion thread

    I had kind of figured that was the case and under normal circumstances probably wouldn't have mentioned it figuring that it's already been caught by now, but in a trilogy that seems to feature identity theft and questions of identity so centrally I did wonder for just a second if it was actually...

    Spoilers Star Trek: Prey Trilogy - general discussion thread

    I believe I have spotted an error. In the opening of chapter 56 of Prey it has Smrhova present on Enterprise when I believe at that time she is with Geordie and Tuvok aboard Houdini.

    Dear TOS novel writers, it's not you. It's me.

    With the exception of the follow up to In History's Shadow I have quite frankly not enjoyed any of the TOS books in quite some time. The last one I can remember really liking was the one where Seven Of Nine, gets thrust back to the 23rd century. The most recent book the first entry in the...

    Spoilers DS9: Force and Motion by Jeffrey Lang Review Thread

    A lovely book. The jumping around in time never felt gratuitous. Also it was nice to see Miles treated as if he had a fully realized existence before TNG. Often even in the novels his background always felt kind of sketched out but never fully painted in. As for easter eggs would I be correct...

    is q squared a good book?

    Well in all fairness Trelane was upping the crazy so any minor problems Jack may have had were turned into major ones.

    is q squared a good book?

    Thanks Christopher. Now I've gone cross eyed.

    Spoilers VOY: A Pocket Full Of Lies By Kirsten Beyer Review Thread

    My name is Roy. And I'm a Stoic. As a child I had an emotional life that could at best be called mercurial. I felt everything. All the time. And I felt it so strongly that it would leave me feeling helpless before a raging torrent. Being a child I didn't have the words to express what I felt...

    Spoilers TOS: Child of Two Worlds by Greg Cox Review Thread

    Well Mr. Greg Cox, Mr. Fancy Dancy Writer Man, if your mission was to make me cry... twice... (so far)... then mission freakin' accomplished. I hope you're proud of yourself. :vulcan:

    DS9: Force and Motion by Jeffrey Lang blurb

    The discussion is fascinating but I think there is one thing that no one seems to be considering in regards to where Maxwell ends up. It may have nothing to do with how others regard him, but rather how he regards himself.

    NF: The Returned, Part II by Peter David Review Thread (Spoilers)

    Personally I'm finding that I'm rather enjoying NF's return. The last couple of books were hard slogs for me and I honestly could not even finish the last one. But this wee e-book series so far has been much more like the stories I remember loving back when the series was in its heyday. I...
