To start, what is Star Trek Discovery Desperate Hours about, and how does it connect, both narratively and chronologically, to the TV show and the Star Trek canon at large?įirst, let’s be clear: Star Trek: Discovery is set in the same canon timeline as The Original Series and all the other Star Trek television series. But while Mack has written a number of Star Trek novels over the years - including 2004’s Star Trek: The Next Generation: A Time To Kill, 2012’s Star Trek: Vanguard: Storming Heaven, and the upcoming Star Trek: Titan: Fortune Of War - as he admitted in the following email interview, writing a book based on a show that’s still on the air made this experience rather unique.
