379: The Series' Dad

Deny Thy Father.     On of the beauties of tie-in fiction is the ability to go back and fill in important details or stories that might have been alluded to in a series yet the full story was never told, which is what made the idea of Star Trek's Lost Era so enticing for fans.  In this episode of Literary Treks hosts Casey Pettitt and Jonathan Koan talk about The Lost Era novel, Deny Thy Father. We discuss the story, the connective tissue, as snapshot, a change, political thrillers, big action, how it all turns out, cameos, Star Trek stories, ratings and final thoughts. In the news we discuss the release of the final covers for two upcoming books.    News Cover Reveals (00:03:00)                 Feature: Deny Thy Father The Story (00:04:22) Connective Tissue (00:10:54) A Snapshot (00:15:53) A Change (00:21:05) Political Thriller (00:26:12) The Big Action (00:33:47) How It All Turns Out (00:31:11) Cameos (00:39:09) How to Do Star Trek Books (00:44:16) Ratings (00:48:40) Final Thoughts (00:50:07)        Hosts Casey Pettitt and Jonathan Koan    Production Matthew Rushing (Editor and Producer) C Bryan Jones (Executive Producer) Greg Rozier (Associate Producer) Casey Pettitt (Associate Producer)
