Deep Space Spines has a review up for “Star Trek: 32 Chain of Attack“: The Enterprise, as it often does, is investigating gravitational anomalies—the same ones, in fact, that previously flung them to the Mercanian system.

Trek Lit Reviews has a review up for “Star Trek: The Next Generation: Q-Squared“: I first read Q-Squared nearly twenty-three years ago, back when it was first published.

Trek Lit Reviews has a review up for “Star Trek: 36 Worlds Apart Book 2: How Much for Just the Planet?“: Star Trek is no stranger to absurdity. “The Trouble with Tribbles,” “I, Mudd,” and “A Piece of the Action” are probably the most notable instances.
