Star Trek: Discovery: Die Standing

Now that the new streaming video series are probably delayed due to COVID-19, it was fun to have something new on Star Trek. Thanks! 3 people found this helpful

I loved that this story ties in elements from TOS and DS9. I felt that it started out very, very strong and then kind of went a bit of the rails in the middle. It was good by the end, but at that point, I was ready for it to be over. Three stars overall, because while the idea behind main storyline is good, there were times where I felt like it was just tried to take on too much and jumped the shark a bit. My biggest problem with it (and I\’ve seen this before in other Trek books) is the introduction of (to me) an over-the-top alien race that is strange and over-the-top just because it can be in a novel. Georgiou is great in this one one and if you\’re a fan of her character on Discovery, this is definitely worth the listen. The narrator does an awesome job with this novel and has an uncanny ability to slip in and out of character voices. Her rendering of Georgiou is so good, at times you think it\’s Michelle Yeoh. This, however, definitely does fall into the category of \”new\” Trek (Disco, Picard), so if you are looking for a classic TNG style story, this one may not be for you. 1 person found this helpful

It was just okay. The ending is better than the beginning and the middle is slow. The story\’s premise is also misleading. However, it does fill in some blanks about what events occurred between seasons 1 and 2 of Discovery. 1 person found this helpful
