Finished reading: Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home by Vonda N. McIntyre 📚🖖🏾
Not one of my favorite Trek films, but a good book and well-done novelization. I loved that it delved deeper into the aftermath of Spock/McCoy’s spiritual ordeal from the previous two films.

Like the film upon which it’s based, the novelization of Star Trek III: The Search for Spock is often under appreciated. It is, I think, the best adaptation from screenplay to novel I have ever read—and, given how many of those I’ve read, that’s saying something. 🖖🏽📚
A new and nerve-racking chapter in my writing journey has begun. 🍻📚
