Cleanse is a huge Star Trek fan, and spends far too much time reading and editing Memory Alpha.

"'With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.' Those words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie as wisdom and warning. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we're all damaged."
Jean-Luc Picard, (TNG: "The Drumhead")

Best and Worst

My favourite and least favourite episodes:

Star Trek: The Next Generation

Star Trek:Deep Space Nine

Star Trek: Enterprise

Novels

Best:

  • Articles of the Federation by Keith R.A. DeCandido – A very unique take on Star Trek, by taking us into the centre of the Federation's political processes. Very witty and engaging. With the bad-ass President Nan Bacco at the helm, the Federation is in good hands.
  • The Star Trek: Vanguard series by David Mack (# 1,3) and Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore (# 2,4) – A truly epic Star Trek saga in the TOS era, with an incredible number of characters, places, starships and plot threads.
  • Star Trek: The Lost Era: The Art of the Impossible by Keith R.A. DeCandio – ties together pretty much every canon event between 2328 and 2346 in a very epic and wide-ranging story. Fleshes out the back story of the TNG era on both the political and personal level.
  • Star Trek: Titan: Orion's Hounds by Christopher L. Bennett – a fantastic novel on cosmozoans (space-borne lifeforms) and the alien society that has arisen around hunting them. In the best tradition of Star Trek, thoroughly explores issues of tradition and modernity with a sci-fi twist.
  • The Buried Age by Christopher L. Bennett – Hey, what did Picard do in the nine years between captaining the Stargazer and Ent-D? Read this novel and find out, as well as plenty of cool background for TNG.
  • Star Trek: Section 31: Cloak by S.D. Perry – Deals with the aftermath of "The Enterprise Incident" with Section 31 and omega particles. Great characterisation of the TOS crew, which makes it very enjoyable to read. And Kirk's quote on Section 31 at the end is great. A little short, though.
