Lore's destruction has consumed everything in the universe except the USS Theseus and the Celestial Temple. In one last maneuver, the crew uses every ounce of power left in their main systems to shoot their ship across the galaxy to the temple. While their ship flies, the crew has a Louisiana-style supper and heal wounds between them before they must say their final goodbyes, for Benjamin Sisko is of Bajor, and he must return home if Lore is to be stopped.

Okay…wherein Deep Space 2’s distress call is mysteriously cut off and the crew has to— Wait, nope, they just needed some help resetting their comms systems. ALL RIGHT, WHEREIN Mariner gets so totally frustrated with the lack of thrills aboard the Cerritos that she drags her friends into a holodeck adventure that would definitely kill them in reality! Should totally provide them all with a sense of purpose and well-being, right? Right. Or at least it would have. If the U.S.S. Bonaventure hadn’t shown back up from the Delta Triangle to provide them with a real challenge. It’s time to explore a ghost ship, baby!

A stellar student, Una is the “poster girl” of her class, and Pike is determined to become a Starfleet captain with his own ship, rhetorically assembling his dream crew. As their friendship evolves, Pike also suspects Una is involved with the Euxhana, a Chionian cultural minority, who are seeking asylum in Federation space, leading to more questions than answers.
Twenty-five years later, Una and Pike are working together on the USS Enterprise to settle a Chionian trade agreement when a pro-Euxhana saboteur launches a terrorist attack. When the suspect is taken into custody for interrogation and is discovered to have a history with Una, her past associations resurface, threatening to expose a secret she’s been harboring all these years…

Lower Decks: Warp Your Own Way - Out Today!

Star Trek: Lower Decks
Warp Your Own Way

Written by Ryan North
Art by Chris Fenoglio


This week sees the release of the first two episodes of Star Trek: Lower Decks' fifth season on Paramount+, but that's not the only Lower Decks goodness you can experience!

Today, an "interactive graphic novel" set aboard the U.S.S. Cerritos is released, featuring an adventure akin to the old "Choose Your Own Adventure" novels. Definitely a unique story for Star Trek, and one I'm interested in checking out.

Read below for the publisher's description and links to purchase from Amazon!








Publisher's description:
Warp into the action with Star Trek’s first-ever interactive original graphic novel!
Mariner just wants to have a normal day, but no matter what side of the bed she wakes up on, the world is ending. Literally. If she has coffee, Borg attack! If she has raktajino, cue the Romulan boarding party! And in each scenario, Mariner and her friends end up dead, sometimes the ship is destroyed—and the day starts all over again.
But by exploring the different paths, you, the reader, can discover things that Mariner can’t. There are inconsistencies that don’t make sense—putting aside the fact that Mariner’s choice of drink each morning shouldn’t affect which alien races attack the ship, other facts of her world seem to change too. Something is definitely off. It’s up to you to discover!

Publisher's description:
The third arc of the critically acclaimed Star Trek flagship comic series continues in paperback collection! Benjamin Sisko is called out of retirement to defeat the Tzenkethi Coalition!
Captain Benjamin Sisko’s quest to defeat the killer of gods is at an end, and the Prophets beckon him home to the Celestial Temple. He’s earned his rest, but he no longer wants to retire into godhood. So when Starfleet requests his help to stop a familiar foe, the Tzenkethi Coalition, from launching their fleet across the Alpha Quadrant, Sisko and the Theseus’ crew set out to once again save the galaxy. They team up with Operative Kingsnake (a.k.a. HARRY KIM), but the Tzenkethi leader has surprising allies of his own: the Romulans! There’s a reason this species of spiritually rich, lizard birds has twice defeated Starfleet in battle. They’re xenophobic, ruthless, and innovative...and confronting them on their home turf, a planet thought to be an organism itself, is a death sentence.
In this paperback follow up to Star Trek, Vol. 1: Godshock and Vol. 2: The Red Path, Volume 3 collects Star Trek issues #13–18 by writers Collin Kelly & Jackson Lanzing with artist Marcus To.

Nana Visitor's New Book Out Today! Plus: New IDW Library Collection

Another double Trek book release day today, one of which has been a long time coming! Out today is Nana Visitor's new book, along with a new IDW Library collection!


Star Trek:
Open a Channel:
A Woman's Trek

by Nana Visitor


I've been looking forward to this one for some time. Originally planned to be released under Eaglemoss's publishing imprint, this book was delayed for quite awhile due to the end of Eaglemoss as a company. Finally, it is now out and we can all appreciate Nana Visitor's hard work in putting this great book together! I've already read a bit of it, and I have to say that if you are at all a fan of Star Trek, this book belongs in your library!

Check out the back cover blurb below, along with links to purchase the hardcover and Kindle editions from Amazon!






Publisher's description:
Nana Visitor, Star Trek’s Kira Nerys, explores how the series has portrayed and influenced women. Interviews with the stars, writers, producers, and celebrity fans reveal the struggles and triumphs of women both behind and in front of the camera throughout the sixty-year history of Star Trek, and how they have mirrored the experiences of women everywhere.
Nana visitor, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine’s Kira Nerys, explores how the series has portrayed and influenced women. Interviews—with the stars, writers, producers, and audience members from all walks of life, including a politician and an astronaut—highlight the struggles and triumphs of women both behind and in front of the camera throughout the sixty-year history of Star Trek, and how they have mirrored the experiences of women everywhere.
The groundbreaking casting of Nichelle Nichols as Lt. Uhura in 1966 was a paradigm shift for women and people of color. Pioneering is no picnic, and she planned to leave the show until none other than the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. contextualized her appearance in people’s living rooms across America as a way for people of color to know they were indeed an important part of the future.
Since then, each Star Trek show has both reflected the values of its time and imagined a future of equality. In her first book, Open a Channel: A Woman’s Trek, Nana Visitor sets out to discover both how Star Trek led the way for women, and how each show was trapped in its own era.
For Visitor, this is more than a book about Star Trek. It’s also about how society and the stories we tell have evolved in the last sixty years, and how the role of women has changed in that time.
STAR AUTHOR: Written by Star Trek: Deep Space Nine actor Nana Visitor, famous for playing Major Kira Nerys. This is both her story and her journey through the stories of other women involved with Star Trek from the 1960s to the 21st century.
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEWS: Features interviews with more than a dozen women who starred in Star Trek, including Kate Mulgrew, Sonequa Martin-Green, Terry Farrell, Gates McFadden, Denise Crosby, Tawny Newsome, and Jess Bush.
INSPIRING STORIES: Explore how Star Trek has influenced women in the real world, including soldiers, scientists, and even astronauts. For the book, author Nana Visitor visited ESA HQ and interviewed astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti while she was in orbit around Earth on the International Space Station.
PIONEERING SERIES: Following the humanistic tenets of creator Gene Roddenberry, Star Trek, throughout the decades, led the way in promoting diversity. Youths who grew up with Captain Janeway on Star Trek: Voyager, for example, not only learned to accept a woman as a leader but were also able to expand what they could imagine for themselves. The book makes clear how important storytelling is, and how the storytelling of Star Trek has had a profound effect on its audience.

Purchase Star Trek: Open a Channel: A Woman's Trek:

Hardcover: Amazon.com | Amazon.ca | Amazon.co.uk
E-book (Kindle): Amazon.com | Amazon.ca | Amazon.co.uk
