Star Trek: Cast No Shadow
In the new novel by James Swallow, seven years have passed since the events of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. The Klingons and the Federation have begun to take their first, tentative steps towards a lasting peace. However, there still exist many, on both sides of the Neutr
Star Trek Myriad Universes: Shattered Light
A few years ago, Pocket Books released a terrific two-book series entitled Star Trek: Myriad Universes. (Read my review here!) Each book featured three novellas, each written by a different author, and each featuring a fascinating “what-if” tale set in a different era o
Star Trek Department of Temporal Investigations: Watching the Clock
When Star Trek: Enterprise was cancelled after four seasons, it left several story-lines hanging. Many Star Trek fans, myself included, had been hoping that Enterprise would one-day chronicle the events of the Romulan War hinted at in episodes of the Original Series. (And, indeed,
Star Trek: Troublesome Minds
Last spring I wrote a very positive review of the latest Star Trek: Phase Two episode, Enemy: Starfleet!, which was written by Dave Galanter. (If there are any Star Trek fans reading this who have not yet watched this awesome completely fan-made episode, you should do so immediately
Star Trek Typhon Pact: Paths of Disharmony

Star Trek Typhon Pact: Seize the Fire
I’m finally ready to catch back up with this year’s four-book series of crossover Star Trek novels from Pocket Books: The Typhon Pact. This series represents the latest installments in Pocket Books’ exciting efforts from the past few years to push the 24th century
Star Trek: Unspoken Truth

Star Trek: The Sorrows of Empire
David Mack’s novella The Sorrows of Empire appeared in the Star Trek: Mirror Universe anthology Glass Empires back in 2007. It was the highlight of the anthology, and one of my favorite pieces of Star Trek fiction in recent memory. (Read my review of Glass Empires here.)
Star Trek Typhon Pact: Zero Sum Game
David Mack is one of the best of the group of extraordinarily talented, reliable writers who have been writing new Star Trek novels for Pocket Books for the past several years. It’s the compelling work of these core writers that has kept me engaged with the novels’ expan
