It‘s here! Nana Visitor‘s book „Star Trek: Open a Channel: A Woman‘s Trek“ is here. It‘s big, friends! It‘s big, thick, and heavy, and full of amazing women.
I would say it‘s an absolute must have (and read).

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.

A thrilling new Star Trek “movie era” novel from New York Times bestselling author Greg …
Content warning Star Trek: Lost to Eternity -- no real spoilers, but a few hints
I have been looking forward to listening to this book for such a long time, and it did not disappoint. It is such a fun book, instantly one of my favourites. There are three timelines: 2024, 2268 (5 year mission era), and 2292 (movie era). They are easily distinguishable from one another, also because the style of story and characterisations fit right into each one. At first I couldn't imagine how they could be connected, and I enjoyed trying to figure it out as the story went on. When it finally became clear what the connection is I thought it was very well done. I loved the 2024 story line a lot, at least up to a certain point at the very end. It was a lot of fun to have Melinda and Dennis follow Gillian's trail and investigating her disappearance. Both Melinda and Dennis are good characters, they make a good team. I have to say, I enjoy these sort of aftermath stories, where we get to see what happens after our heroes are gone and how their actions impact the people who just happen to be there at the same time. I loved seeing Saavik again. She's so cool and does not get nearly enough screen time in the movies. There are great connections to other series through little references here and there, especially in 2024. (E.g. pay attention to the conspiracy theories Dennis mentions.) I loved the ending! It's very beautiful and I may have a had a tear or two in my eyes.
I can't end this little review without mentioning Robert Petkoff, who narrates the audio book. He's as fantastic as ever, or even better. This time there are a few audio effects as well, which work really well.
And now, if you are looking for me, I'm re-watching "The Voyage Home".
