This book is an easy read and for the most part extremely funny. Shatner definitely has a good sense of humour.On a few occasions he also seems to have a very good ability to hate, especially George Takei. In fact, in one chapter he had nothing nice to say about the rest of the TOS cast, except N...
I've had a bit of a weird fascination with William Shatner for many years. Nothing to do with his Star Trek years as he is not my favorite Captain by a long shot. Patrick Stewart and Chris Pine duel for that honor. However, he's a bit of a straight shooter who has made no bones about his success ...
In my experience a strong novelization can do wonders for a weak movie; it's one of the reasons I love novelizations so much. Since I like Dillard's Trek books, I thought she'd be a good candidate to do the trick for the weakest TOS movie. I was right. While I still don't care for the story, work...

Leonard actually was editing the fourth movie when Frank Mancuso, then running Paramount, told him they intended to produce a new series and asked if he would be interested in producing it. It was a great show of respect for Leonard’s abilities, but he had no interest in doing that. At that point...
Disentangling himself from a splash of spiky brush, he scrambled to his feet. Taking a deep breath, he tugged off his borrowed trousers, wadded them up and lobbed them off into the thick surrounding darkness. Actually, although he’d informed their captors otherwise, he was wearing his own clothes...
A metal hand caught his wrist. “Your nerves are really shot, Nate,” said the silverplated robot. “Why are you in my room? The deal is you don’t—” “I’m your partner,” Sunny reminded the OCO agent. “This is an emergency.” “What’s an emergency?” “Frank Dockert has a rush assignment for us.” Pushing ...
