    So New novels $17.99

    This seems pretty high but I guess in line with current prices, how have these prices affected your reading? Still buying new or rediscovering older novels? I'm digital but thinking of going back to Dead treee since for $18 I think I want a physical book

    Novel set in the post atomic Horror

    So would anyone like to see a trek novel based in this time period? I would like to see a good author tackle the subject Let’s face it to even recover from a nuclear war in a 100 years and then go on to form starfleet, that would be a tough one to explain and document. But I’d like to see...

    Looking for selling advice

    I found a long thought lost box of the first 60 or so Star Trek novels from pocket books and S&S. They are in very good condition. I simply don’t have the room for them. In your all’s opinions what would be a fair asking price . I would probably sell them in like 5 to 10 a piece as shipping the...

    Are you buying the Audiobooks

    so how many are getting the audiobooks only now that they’ve cranked up the audio? Are you using a download service like audible or old school CD’s?

    I hope the Picard series is good

    because so far the writers responsible for Discovery haven’t come close to anything TNG. I watched tonight a marathon of the end of season 4’s Redemption two parter and Darmok and Ensign Ro. When you watch vintage TNG you really see how shallow Discovery was. Klingon’s culture really defined...

    Watched Trek V tonight

    for the first time in awhile and I have to admit now that the campfire scene in the beginning of the movie made me pretty misty eyed now that both Kelley and Nimoy are gone. When Bones says to the two that it’s amazing the time they spend together, I had to reflect the same about how much of my...

    Fandom is so toxic right now

    pretty much reflects our political climate, so hateful, small minded and petty. Whether it’s Dr. Who for casting a woman, Star Trek for casting an African American woman, or changing some details, or the Walking Dead, for dealing with cast changes, it seems that fans just spew and spew. Where is...

    Post your Original TOS Impressions

    I started watching Trek in Syndication I was born in 63 so i might have caught an odd original run episode, but my memories are strictly from watching it weekday afternoons growing up. For those that were old enough to remember the original Run I'd like some impressions on what it was like...

    Modern sci-fi vs classic sci-fi shows

    The problem I have with most new sci fi shows is basically with characters. I’m getting ready to drop westworld this week because I just don’t care about any of the characters. And while I’m not ready to drop The Expanse yet, I have a similar issue, not only characters I really don’t get...

    2nd Into Darkness Viewing

    Since I saw it in the theater in 2013, my opinion really has'nt changed with the issues I had with it, but I noticed in the credits (Don't think I stayed the first time) that Liam's Hemsworth was there as George Kirk and the actress that played winona Kirk , were they Cut I don't remember seeing...

    Made Two Observations in a B&N Last Weekend

    Made my way into the local B&N store first time in a long time, first I noticed just how small the Trek section had gotten from the glory days. Second I had a chance to pick up in my hands several of the novels I have purchased for my Kindle. Now I'm not a young pup anymore at the tender age of...

    This Quote From the Star Trek Video game Review

    which is supposed to be terrible btw, from Gamespot sums it up pretty good about JJ Abrams Take on the Trek Franchise, better than anything else I heard "The thing about Star Trek is that it has never really been about the action. Character drama and a continuing quest for knowledge have...

    I can't believe Trek Audio Books won't sell

    Given the rise of Audible and Audiobooks in General, I can't believe that if even Trek Audiobooks were poor sellers back in the day, that they would not be poor sellers today. Now the Audio books in the past my have been very expensive to produce with celebrity talent and sound effects and...
