Saturday Shipping from Star Trek: Voyager.

I have shipped Kathryn Janeway & Chakotay since 1996. I love that Kirsten Beyer finally paired them in her relaunch novels.

Who are you shipping this weekend?

As a Trekker, I am in heaven with the new Star Trek series on sci-fi. It's about captain Pike. Loving it

Another Greg Cox book. There is something about his style that I don‘t find as appealing as other TOS authors.

RamsFan1963 I don't care for his Star Trek books. I prefer Dayton Ward or David Mack. 4y

The two narrative strands of the book - Janeway's mission to rescue Tuvok's stranded away team from attack by the Kazon; Janeway's reminisces on her childhood, youthful romances and early Starfleet career - interweave, coming together at the climax in a rather forced way. The Kazon story is interesting, if uninspired; the memoir is interesting if you're a Trekkie who particularly likes Janeway. As I'm one of the latter, I ended up enjoying 👇🏼

Bookwomble the story more than what I've written so far would suggest.
The Kazon story being fairly standard fare, the main USP is Janeway's back story, and I'd rather have had a whole novel on that subject, as there were plenty of elements which could have been explored and expanded. Given that Taylor was one the main creators of Voyager, and had defined Janeway's character for the show, she does Kathryn justice in the book. I guess the Delta Quadrant 👇🏼

Bookwomble itself was a character in the show, so at the time of publication, 1996, that setting would have been important to include.
I don't think it works on its own merits, that is, it wouldn't be a good jumping on point as you have to already care for and know something about the characters to feel invested, but as fan-service it's 3.5 🌟

Having a favourite Star Trek captain is a bit like having a favourite child: it's really not acceptable. However... Kathryn Janeway 🥇😁

🎧 If you are a Voyager & Kate Mulgrew fan then this book is for you!

Kate reading Janeway‘s bio was perfection. The book takes us from pre-Voyager to Vice Admiral. Personal thoughts and recounting some of the best episodes and characters. All of this through Janeway‘s eyes.

I loved this audiobook! Brought back memories of this show and I‘m thinking about dragging out the series I have on DVD 💕

I‘m a super nerd ... ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️+

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description or reason for wanting to read the book. Some are old and some will be new. Don't judge me - I have a lot of books.
Day 258

I'm with Captain Janeway - I need my coffee this morning! ☕

Also wondering what it says about me that my phone's autocomplete has learnt the word "Janeway"? ??
