The Latter Fire: James Swallow.

Star Trek has always featured outlandish ideas such as huge\\nspace creatures and other pretty out-there science fiction\\nconcepts. However, at its core, Star Trek is really about the\\nstruggles that we all face in overcoming negative forces such as\\nviolence and fear to come together to build a better world. No one\\nunderstands that basic idea more than renowned Trek author James\\nSwallow!

In this episode off Literary Treks hosts Matthew Rushing and Dan\\nGunther are joined by James Swallow to talk about his latest book\\nThe Latter Fire. We discuss the genesis of the story,\\nworld-building, fear, prejudice and preconceptions, a romantic\\nfoil, stretching the Prime Directive, a cosmozoan, everyone has\\nsomething to do, what\\u2019s next for James and where to find him.
