Now live for your listening enjoyment is Literary Treks episode #159, “The Twilight Zone,” in which I discuss the inspirations and ideas behind my latest Star Trek novel Legacies, Book 2: Best Defense.

With hosts Matthew Rushing, Dan Gunther, and Bruce Gibson I discussed what it was like for me to finally write a novel based on and featuring the original series characters and Enterprise; the creative process behind the inception of the Transfer Key and how it connects to Star Trek‘s canon; the trilogy’s story-development process; its characters’ arcs; the thinking behind the trilogy’s alternate dimension and new alien antagonists; plus a peek at the work I have coming in 2017.

Give it a listen!
