General Trek Book Discussion

Apparently Broken Bow isn't going to arrive until next week. Which doesn't make much sense as it's already been dispatched - and from not that far away either.
Anyhow, I've gotta agree with who awesome the extra scenes are - the ones in Shockwave and The Expanse were awesome anyhow.

Royal mail knows no sense I have Broken Bow now too (decided to bite the bullet and complete my collection) but haven't started it yet. Waiting for The Expanse to arrive too.

Ok, I really enjoyed Surak's Soul, lots of nice moments, and a great plot, and lots of good character stuff. Ironically, considering it's T'Pol's book, she was the one who was kind of shoved aside, but I liked the use of Gandhi and the ethics of the book in general. Lots of nice Trip n' Reed stuff too, though there are quite a few not-really-accurate British stereotypes I wish the spin-off writers - and Enterprise writers in general - would learn to get over.

There's a Porthos story? Ok, that's next on my list!

I found another story anthology book I have Tales from the Captains table has an Enterprise story with Archer and Shran it's a Porthos story Have Beagle,Will Travel:The legend of Porthos by Louisa M. Swann.

I have that, but I hadn't read it yet. Thanks for the reminder!

I got Broken Bow today at around 14:00. I've just finished it - it's now 18:12. Might have finished it earlier if it wasn't for climbing that tree.

Anyhow, I did enjoy it, obviously as it was an Enterprise book, but to me, some parts just didn't seem right. I liked the extra scenes, and the use of deleted ones - but I felt '!' was used a little too often and not exactly in the right places. There was a few scenes missed out too.

Then again, I suppose I'd find a fault in every book.

Nowt wrong with being a critical reader Half the fun, I think. I've just started Broken Bow now and all it's really doing is making me want to go and watch the episode again. I love the little behind-the-scenes notes at the end though - "Somebody once said that the two things that first started the internet were pornography and Star Trek."

Well, I haven't read the end notes yet, but I will get round to it.

And, I suppose I am a critical reader. xD.

Yeah, I jumped to the end. Concentration span I have not Is there a story with climbing the tree or did you just climb a tree?

I used to always jump to the end of books when I was younger. I kinda dropped that habit now though.

Oh, Dad just decided that after fourteen years of my life that we were going to climb the huge tree at the end of the garden. nothing to it really.
