Shadow of the Machine.

\\n

In the aftermath of The Motion Picture the TOS\\ncharacters were seen supposedly going back to the final frontier\\nbut what if they went back to Earth first for repairs and shore\\nleave first?\\xa0

\\n

In this episode of Literary Treks hosts Matthew\\nRushing and Dan Gunther discuss Shadows of the Machine, the latest\\nenovella by Scott Harrison. We talk about the how heroes are real\\npeople, some of the continuity issues with other novels, dive into\\nthe stories of Kirk, Sulu and Spock, and give our ratings.

\\n

In the news segment we judge the covers for the New\\nFrontier novellas, talk about blurbs for the upcoming Titan,\\nSeekers, TOS, and DS9 books, discuss the news of a 50th anniversary\\ntrilogy, finishing up by reviewing the new issues of the Trek/Apes\\ncrossover and Ongoing #43.\\xa0
