Kathryn Janeway: The Autobiography

[Therin of Andor]

Authors certainly have a lot more tools at their disposal these days to quickly go back and check little details like that.

Yep, and my personal theory: as mentioned in the ST III novelization, it was USS Firenze took the injured cadets back to Earth while Kirk limped to Ceti Alpha V, to rescue Kyle. So Janice Rand (who was in the ST II novelization but not the movie) must have travelled back with the cadets because she gets to Earth well before the Enterprise - and gets to see the damage done by Khan and the adventures the ship had in the comics between ST II and ST III. Strangely enough, her job in "Flashback", revisiting ST VI, emphasises her responsibility for the supervision of younger crew members, such as Tuvok.

I don't know if they have been posted here yet, but the description and cover are up on the Titan website.

Well... so now the Ebook for this work is available to get on Amazon UK, and also reportedly for Australians at least on Apple Books, but not in the USA or Canada until 10/27! (Well just have to keep waiting (impatiently), I suppose.)

Though meanwhile for folks in USA/ Canada, on Amazon you can preview this new Janeway Autobiog. by looking "Inside the Book" at the Kindle page- a few of the first pages are available to read, so can check that out at least.

I am looking forward to this one but think I will tell a relative who never knows what to buy me to get it for me as an Xmas present, as it looks like a perfect read for those quiet days between the 25th and 31st...

The book has landed! Should we open a new review thread with Spoiler tag and poll, or keep going on here?

But if somebody kind of rang me up and said, “Oh, do you want to write Star Trek?” I’m not going to say no. (laughs) Instantly, this minute. Ideally, I’d have a Star Trek: Cardassia. And that would be my show.

Mein gott, if only!

Just started. Do we need a new thread with spoliers in it?

Spoiler code is enough.

So the Janeway biography is out and you can hear a pin drop? Not even a review thread?

Is she really that disliked in the Lit forum?

I think it’s just that the Lit-forum has dropped ball during the literary year of hell.

In any case, if somebody opens a review thread, I hoep it has the usual novel poll.

She is my least favorite captain with Archer.
But I am waiting on the Sisko biography

You do know that anyone can create a review thread right? If there isn't one already, create one.

 

[Ronald Held]

Why are two threads needed for this book?

 

[trampledamage]

Because one (the other one) is a review thread. This is the original discussion about the book coming out thread.

Generally these are a spoiler free zone, while the review threads allow open spoilers.
