Literary question about "A Time to Die"

[Star Treks]

I didn't think of Cabot as a Mary Sue, but at the same time I also didn't *hate* her. There are very few Trek Lit characters I've ever thought of hating, actually. Admiral Nakamura came the closest, out of all the characters in the Be Born/Die duology.

I also really enjoyed that duology very much.

With respect, I actually liked Nakamura in these books. She was interesting as a sort-of ally to Picard, with him but not at the expense of politics. In fact, one of the big disappointments of A Time To Die was that it really didn't feature her at all. But that's just me.

Now, on the show, I really did think she was kind of a bitch.

^^Admiral Nakamura was a man, played by Clyde Kusatsu. Are you thinking of Admiral Nechayev?

Wasn't Nechayev Picard's defense lawyer in Die?

She was his lawyer in A Time to be Born, I haven't read A Time to Die yet so I don't know if she's in that too.

Yes, of course, that's what I meant. I wasn't paying attention. Nakamura didn't have a huge role so I kind of just mentally assumed Nechayev - oops.

This week's project: find Star Trek fanfic with Mary Sue/cannibalism to verify hypothesis.

I bet you could find it on the internet somewhere too!

If nothing else, with other elements per Rule 34.

See, I agree with you there (Nechayev is one of my favorite Admirals).
