84: The Maroon Jacket EraGreg Cox: Foul Deeds Will
Rise
The last time Lenore Karidian was seen, Dr. McCoy was
promising that she would receive the best medical care the
Federation could provide. This makes her the last person that
Captain Kirk would think he'd run into, 20 years later on a peace
keeping mission. Yet he does and she again becomes embroiled in a
murder investigation aboard the Enterprise.
In this episode of Literary Treks, hosts Matthew
Rushing and Dan Gunther are joined by author Greg Cox to talk about
his latest book Foul Deeds Will Rise. We find
out the genesis behind the story, the difference of writing in the
movie era, how crafting Star Trek murder mysteries is
different from normal mysteries, some of the important themes that
run though the book and Greg's upcoming projects.
In the news segment we talk to our new host Dan and
ask him for some of his favorite Star
Trek books, then remind everyone that The
Collectors by Christopher L. Bennett is out and discuss
the new blurb for the upcoming ebook, Shadows of the
Machine.
