I love Star Trek books. I enjoy joining the crew on their latest adventure. Then I came across this author. His story is good, it’s entertaining. But, after the 5th chapter, I couldn’t take anymore. His continual and repeated references to previous adventures is nauseating! He tactic is to state something may happen, then he references a previous adventure by name and the character hopes “it” doesn’t happen again. I don’t know if the author is trying to impress us with his Star Trek knowledge, or if he can’t find enough in his own imagination to fill the pages. I will continue to read Star Trek books. But, if I ever see this author again, I will stay away!
