Strange Novel Worlds
Author: Caroline-Isabelle Caron
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476693196
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
Since the publication of the first James Blish novelizations of Star Trek episodes in 1967, close to 900 tie-in novels, anthologies, and omnibus editions have been published. Star Trek tie-in novels have had a significant influence on Western popular culture. The works of beloved science fiction authors have shaped the way fans understand Star Trek and its universe, and many stand as near equal builders of the Star Trek franchise, next to Gene Roddenberry, his producers, and the many creators of the later series. With such a vast and varied body of work, tie-in books form a rich and deep cultural phenomenon, the history and content of which are worthy of concerted study. Despite the enduring popularity of the franchise they are based on, no previous essay collection has ever focused on the numerous and widely diverse books of Star Trek tie-in novels. This collection does just that by examining the tie-in works as relevant literature. The essays primarily focus on tie-in books published from 1990 to 2022, and each author discusses the plot and context of separate novels while simultaneously exploring major themes such as canon vs. fanfiction and merits of the genre. The collection ends with an exploration of the continuity of this period of Star Trek as it stands following a narrative conclusion announced in 2021.

Asparagus Grass
Author: Adrian Deans
Publisher: Hague Publishing
ISBN: 1922984000
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Many of us have had the occasional vague suspicion that the universe is not just a massive vacuum with a few specks of burning hydrogen here and there. We also have our doubts about the various ‘truths’ we are told at school, or at work, regarding the nature of reality and the power systems which underpin our world. Especially as this ‘truth’ appears to have been created to serve the wealthy and powerful. Some are prepared to fight – to lay down their lives if necessary for the one chance to reveal the lies lurking behind the so-called 'truth'. Not Mitch Kuiper though: a man of simple tastes and little ambition, who would rather drink beer and watch sport with his best mate Cam than involve himself in the struggle. Unfortunately, fate has other plans for Mitch as he finds himself drawn into a galactic war in which he has become a key player. 'Another imaginative Adrian Deans’ rollercoaster ride on an extra-terrestrial scale.' Peter Goldsworthy AM (Maestro; Honk If You Are Jesus)
