So What Are you Reading?: Generations

Reading Behind The Mask, autobiography of Tyson Fury. Mostly as speed-reading practice because I normally want to read Trek Books slower in this case I just had a mild interest, most of all I've been happy with my reading speed, managed to get it done so far at about 750wpm with a good comprehension I feel. Other than that, Cold Equations has been enjoyable for the first few chapters I've read.
 
Finished I, Q. Very interesting book. We are introduced to two new powerful entities here. The M Continuum and Melanie. Be interesting if they ever show up again. Especially Melanie. Someone who is at a higher level than Q.
I like that one of the themes of the book is to not give up, which Q does but not Picard. Another character clash between that and the new show. If it was that one, he would have given up at the first level. :)
 
Finally found a copy of Discovery Dead Endless online for under $12 so with apologies to Greg Cox it sounds like I'll be putting off his Voyager novel just a bit longer. I'm really anxious to read Dead Endless---though I'm excited to read a Greg Cox Voyager novel as well. Decisions :ack:. Maybe if I get done "The Last Best Hope" before "Dead Endless" comes in I'll have to start "The Black Shore";). Don't want a gap in my reading.
 
That sounds interesting but I can't seem to find much info about Lizzie Borden outside her real life namesake online and the rest of the books in that ''Borden Dispatches'' series on goodreads, which books would you recommend?

There are some historical novels about the crime and the trial: LIZZIE by Ed McBain and LIZZIE BORDEN by Elizabeth Engstrom. I confess I've never read either, although Engstrom is a great very good horror writer. When it comes to more fictional adventures, I enjoyed MAPLECROFT, which was very Lovecraftian, and am looking forward to starting the second, CHAPELWOOD.

I finished my reread of DTI: Watching the Clock. It is absolutely fantastic, and I recommend it to any Trek fan.

I'm through Chapter 3 in my reread of DTI: Forgotten History. So far, it has felt mostly like an explanation of Kirk's Enterprise's time travel adventures, some of which we already had referenced in Watching the Clock. The new characters like Delgado and Grey are not capturing me like Dulmur, Lucsly, and the other 24th century DTI members did. Still, I think I remember it picking up around the time they get to the time of the STIV adventure.
 
Now that I'm done my Day of Honor omnibus I have now turned to my Mere Anarchy collection. I bought the hardcopy version a while back.

And as my "Dead Endless" has yet to come in and I finished up "The Last Best Hope" on Monday I decided to start Voyager: "The Black Shore" after all.

Is the mere anarchy collection good?
 
Mere Anarchy is a great celebration of TOS in all of its eras. Do check it out.

I am reading The Last Best Hope. It's exciting to see Picard's life play out a bit differently than in the Litverse (not being married, for one). I haven't seen any of the show Picard, so it's all new to me, and I have high hopes for the book.

I'm also rereading Plagues of Night/Raise the Dawn.
 
Finished my Duaneverse re-read last night with The Empty Chair. Damn fine stuff!

I couldn’t stop imagining how great a Rihannsu series would be. Say, something like 24 episodes would cover the four books in amazing style.
