📚 thirty-four of 2020: Power Hungry by Howard Weinstein ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #startrek #tng 🖖
Much better than the last one. While the environmental themes are pretty heavy-handed, it’s nice to find a Trek novel where everything isn’t wrapped up neatly with a bow by the end.
@djwudi I see you posting about Star Trek novels. I'm a lifelong fan of the series that is trying to wade in to the novels, but I'm having a tough time figuring out where to start. I read the Picard series tie-in, and I just recently read Peter David's Imzadi. Do you have any recommendations?
@ted Welcome to the Trek literary universe! 🖖🏻
Wherever you start, there’s a lot of both good and (usually enjoyably) bad. Do you have a particular favorite series that you'd like to start with? TOS is my "home" for Trek fandom, so those are the ones I'm most familiar with.
@ted I just realized I never actually replied to this! Sorry about that.
Most of what I’ve read has been TOS novels, and I’m just now really starting to dive into the TNG and other series books (because it’s getting harder to find TOS books I don’t already have in the used bookstores). I’ve enjoyed any Q-centric books, and the “A Time To...” series, which takes place immediately pre-Nemesis (maybe post-? It’s early in the morning right now.).
I did just come across this article, too, which is a pretty good starting point.
Enjoy! 🖖
