A classic Star Trek romp through alien skies with deep moral questions. Always interesting to see how the characters translate from screen to page, especially in a franchise with so many overlapping iterations of certain characters, and I think Miller did a great job keeping in tune with the mood and tone of the Strange New Worlds show while also exploring more facets of Chris Pike (namely, of course, his love of horses) and his team. Thoroughly enjoyable read.

I have been away from Trek books for too long, this was a great re-entry to the book universe. What's fun about books is casting decisions are yours. Want a young Leonard Nimoy, Nichelle Nichols, and Majel Barret? Have at it! I did for the most part use the actual cast in my head, but it was fun to have the options. Definitely recommend for any Strange New World fans, which was the title of the fan fiction series in the books.
