    Day 26 – Trek Book (fiction or non-fiction)

    I've been looking forward to this prompt. I want all your book recommendations!

    So... which one to choose? There are so many.

    Here are just a very few of my personal highlights:

    Fiction:
    📘 "Articles of the Federation" by Keith R. A. DeCandido. -- a unique book as it is a novel about politics and procedures in the Presidential Palace in Paris. I could read a whole series of that. Or watch one. I'd be happy with a mini series.
    📚 "Destiny" trilogy by David Mack. -- I had read a few spoilers a while ago and really did not want to read these books. I was upset about the big reveal. But I kept hearing about how great they are and so I finally did read them. I am so glad I did. It's fantastic! It's dramatic and heartbreaking. I cried several times. And I am still upset. LOL Good books do that.

    Non-fiction:
    📖 "Star Trek: Open a Channel: A Woman's Trek" by Nana Visitor. -- I have not read far into it yet, but I don't think I am wrong when I say that this is probably the most important non-fiction book about Star Trek.
    📓 "The Making of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine". -- One of the first Trek books I ever bought. I love making of books, they are always so very intersting. And this is no exception. (I never liked the translation though and would love to have an English version.)

    Shoutout to all the other books, fiction and non-fiction alike.

    (I deleted the "Fave" in the prompt, because I just want to pick "one" of many great ones.)

  16. I want a President Rillak/ Capt. Burnham/ President T'Rina novel with a good dose of Admiral Vance and Lt. Sahil. And I want it to be written by Keith R. A. DeCandido because I want it to be about Federation politics and he does it best.

    I also want a Rillak/ Burnham/ T'Rina road... space? trip story. I want to see them have a lot of fun and solve some situation at the same time. I want that one to be written by Cassandra Rose Clarke.

    How do I get the relevant people to a) listen to me, and b) fulfil both those wishes? I'd be happy with one if I have to.

  24. Edit: Taken!

    I have a book to give away: The IDIC Epidemic by Jean Lorrah.
    I found it in a local free book shelf and after having read it I want to pass it on.
    Just send me a DM with your address and it‘s yours. First come, first served. I ship anywhere from Germany. No tracking.

  35. I read #StarTrek: #StrangeNewWorlds—The Scorpius Run #4 (of 5) last night. It was really great. This whole series has been great. Still have to wait for issue #5. The previous SNW #comics series, The Illyrian Enigma (4 issues), was really good, too, though a bit dated.

    I will also add that the SNW novel, The High Country, was also excellent. It starts out in a frustrating manner, but the payoff is worth it. Waiting on a 2nd SNW novel. It's past due.

  41. l, The Constable is a beautiful book and quick read. I read it in two sittings. It has a angle that is impossible to resist. There is one canon problem that is unmistakable, but the inclusion of that character is still enjoyable. (Yes, I know Trek novels are not canon, but this one went a little too far). Still bothered me a little. #TrekBooks #StarTrek

  42. Yes, I know Amazon is EVIL. And I do hate them. However, I do use the Kindle app on my iPad. Unfortunately, it was the best option for me. I am not promoting Amazon. Of these 6 books, I have only read Abyss. It was exceptionally good. At the end of the day, .99 cents is .99 cents. #TrekBooks #StarTrek

  43. Finally, The Autobiography of Benjamin Sisko is released. That took forever. So they are calling it an autobiography written by Jake? #StarTrek #TrekBooks

  44. I've only had about 2 times to sit down with this Alex White #DS9 novel. Without giving away anything, it started out so nice and lovely and fun and then turned seriously dark. There are many, but not all, #TrekBooks writers who do that. I don't particularly care for that style. I mean, I'm not against plot development, but to mislead the reader is an entirely different thing. It is like an attack against the reader's expectations, which has its place, but not with most #StarTrek novels.

    It has been on my To-Read stack for some time.
