Star Trek: Vanguard – Harbinger

ALIAS meets STAR TREK: The watchword is intrigue as the humans and aliens of a Starfleet space station spearhead the race to find the secret behind a potentiall

Guess the synopsis of the book tells you how old it is, and I guess what they’re going for, though this is more of a standard Trek adventure than I think they’re setting people up for. I mean, I’m reading it because I’m a Trek fan, not because I’m a Alias fan, right?

Regardless, this is the first book in the Vanguard series, it features it’s own cast and crews of an exceptionally large “Vanguard” class space station that has several permanent resident spaceships, but for this first adventure they include the TOS crew and ship, fresh off one of their first adventures with a relatively green captain Kirk. It’s a quick adventure that flows pretty quickly, but there’s way too many names for my taste. A good number for me is around four to five main characters with maybe half a dozen supporting ones, but I think there’s about 10 main ones here, with about 20 supporting characters, so I had to check notes from time to time to remember who was doing what. Didn’t help me at all that I was reading this before going to sleep, so there were several chapters that I re-read more than was strictly necessary.

It’s a good first step though and I look forward to moving on to the next in the series.

Star Trek: The Next Generation: Officer’s Manual

Star Trek: The Next Generation Officer’s Manual is a supplement published by FASA in 1988 for Star Trek: The Role Playing Game to update game material following the premiere of the new television series Star Trek: The Next Generation. However Paramount Pictures did not feel FASA’s new material match

This is a well done book, but unfortunately was developed separately from the main TNG show, so there’s a ton of information that makes no sense at all in context of what people were expecting after seeing TNG on the screen. Add to that, most of the ship designs are hilariously bad, the best example of that I have is the Whellington Class: www.shapeways.com/product/RW4355RLP/wellington-class-light-cruiser-8-quot look at how absurdly bad that entire thing is, it looks like the engineering section is infected and is bloating up. Again though, the book itself is well done, it just needs to be set in a franchise that isn’t Trek.

As this episode was happening, I had the feeling they were sneaking her in as a backdoor pilot, she was a complete distraction from the main story, and I find the character to be presumptuous know it all that walks into any room and immediately assumes she can do everything better than anyone else already there. My wife wants to check out the show, so I’ll be along for the ride, but they’re going to need to rework the character a bit to make it watchable for me.

The Star Trek Book of Friendship: You Have Been, and Always Shall Be, My Friend

Star Trek has energized friendships for over 50 years. Whether it’s exploring a convention, beaming into a movie theater, or joining in on a landing party watch party, generations have been as united in their love of the franchise’s bold storytelling and stunning action as they are in the honest fully realized relationships of their favorite characters.

The publisher of the book was kind enough to send me a copy of the book, it’s both on instagram AND on my bookshelf. It’s a uniquely weird type of book, something that I’ve never run into in all my time collecting and reading Trek books. It’s not a series of conversations, it’s not an in universe look at the characters, but instead it’s an ongoing conversation between the authors Robb Pearlman and Jordan Hoffman about the various friendships that have taken place throughout all the Trek series up to now. There’s even a few mentioned that I’m not even sure I’d call friendships, like Beverly Crusher and Troi from Next Generation, or Reed and Trip from Enterprise. The guys from Enterprise, I would barely even call them friendly with each other, much less actual friends, but with Reed being such a cold and uncaring character, maybe that’s the best kind of friendship he can have, one where he’s always yelling and belittling the other person.

The art might suggest that this is a children’s book, but it’s definitely not, and mentioning some pretty advanced topics like “Bechdel tests”, “cisgendered conversations”, and the unfortunate case of “Tuvix”, who is always an ethical topic to touch on. Honestly, imho, Captain Janeway did the right thing by killing Tuvix and giving life back to Neelix and Tuvok, but I can see an argument for keeping the new entity around for compassion’s sake.

Luckily I agree with the authors in that the greatest friendship in Trek is between Kirk and Spock, though I would have made it a threeway friendship with McCoy thrown in for the obvious reasons.

This is a fun and unique read with eye catching art. It’s a bit pricey at $18 for a 128 page book, but if you’re looking for a fun essay on friendships, this is the place to be.

SS Conestoga From “Star Trek Enterprise” By Doug Drexler

Star Trek: Picard Season 2

Star Trek: Picard: Created by Kirsten Beyer, Michael Chabon, Akiva Goldsman, Alex Kurtzman. With Patrick Stewart, Alison Pill, Michelle Hurd, Santiago Cabrera. Follow-up series to Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987) and Star Trek: Nemesis (2002) that centers on Jean-Luc Picard in the next chapter of his life.

Season 2 has come and gone, and it’s abundantly clear that my opinions of what Trek is about vs what the creative minds of this show consider the heart of Trek are in completely different places. The season opened with a couple minutes of gloriously blurry spaceship scenes with all the lense flairs you could fit into a single frame, trying to capture that money making spirit that the 2009 movie had, but alas, it all felt too cheaply filmed, and too cheaply presented to actually look good on screen. This second season is 10 long meandering episodes that are paradoxically both too short for the content they want to explore, and too long with the content that they ended up exploring.

Spoilers from here on out:
The main plot involves the Borg (gasp!) ripping through a dimensional rip in the fabric of space, taunting the Federation with a demand to speak to Picard, who then arrives and is quickly kicked back to the far past for him, but sorta future for us, along with a group of randomly selected crew from the ship he was on (the same people from season one somehow, hm) where they have an unbelievable number of contrived plots lines all running at the same time. Immigration, politics, health care, childhood trauma, predestination, destiny, adoption, finding birth parents, adult loneliness, why Picard has the accent he does, meeting your gods, gods making mistakes, and many many more. All of them touched on, none of them really handled in a way that made me feel like the correct amount of time was spent on them.

This was always meant to be a three season look into how Picard became the man that he ended up being and how that man we saw from the TNG television series changed for better or worse after the lessons he learned while commanding that ship. As such, it’s not really a space opera with fantastical spaceship battles, so as I mentioned, not up my alley. From the other reviews I’ve read, there’s definitely an audience for the show out there, but it isn’t me.

I’ll be back for season three though.
