The Return

Yeah.

And I found the cover of the novel Star Trek The Return written by William Shatner.

Okay.

Which I believe is a sequel to Star Trek Generations where Kirk comes back to life.

And they were also goddamn terrible that it just never continued.

I remembered liking them as a kid.

We could do a book club where every episode we do a chapter of Star Trek The Returns.

We could.

I read Imzadi recently for my podcast, and I would have sworn that it was the first Star Trek book I read, and then I went back to my dad's house and found a drawer of about six or seven of them, which I can only presume I never read, but they all had, like, sale prices of 50p on them or things like that, so I've obviously picked it up and gone, it's Star Trek, I must have it, and then just cast it aside.

I guess The Return was a really exciting cover and concept.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

even if it is a bit mad I remember seeing that

What about you guys?

I think because Star Trek was on... kind of all the time in the or at least it felt like it was like I felt you were never too far away from Star Trek in the 90s I didn't really do all that much extended media the one thing I do remember though was the return the William Shatner novel where Kirk's brought back from the dead by the Borg and Scotty and Spock and McCoy all get involved, and it's the next-gen cast, and it's just this big first-contact Star Trek Generations sequel.

So I definitely remember getting that for Christmas, I think, and devouring that over the Christmas holidays.

But other than that, I think it was the...

shatner does

not

so whenever when you look at so what are called the shatner verse novels the return the ashes of eden i think there's like a trilogy of them of uh you know like the reanimation of captain kirk's corpse after star trek generations They're all co-written with Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens, and they are the ones.

The Return has some funky Star Trek ideas.
