“There was a very real chance that McCoy would never see the Vulcan again. He felt a painful and -because it was Spock- embarrassing tightening of his throat. […] If the Vulcan felt any discomfort at the potential emotionality of the moment, he did not show it. McCoy shifted his bare feet awkwardly […]. “Look Spock, I know I’ve teased you a lot over the years, and maybe we’ve had a few serious arguments, but I want you to know that in spite of it all… Well, hell.” He thrust out his hand thoughtlessly […]. Spock took the proffered hand briefly then let it go. His grip was strong, warm to the point of feeling feverish. “In spite of our philosophical disagreements Doctor, I have a great deal of respect for you.” That did it. McCoy felt himself choking up, and was angry at himself for doing so. He cleared his throat a few more times and hoped Spock wouldn’t notice the film of tears in his eyes. […] “Dammit all to hell, I think that of everyone, I’m going to miss you most.” Spock smiled without smiling, […] something with his eyes maybe […]. McCoy watched him for a while then withdrew to his quarters to wipe an errand tear and swear at himself for sniffling. He had the strangest feeling he would never see the Vulcan again.”

This is amazing! I loved this book so much and seeing this reminded me of all the great moments ☺️ especially when the seed partners all attach to Anakin, so funny!

The early 1990s Star Trek: Starfleet Academy novels were great fun.

The best of them were, unsurprisingly, the young Worf stories by Peter David that started the series off - Trek’s best writer paired with TNG’s most interesting character.

“a pretty alien scientist” and I am guessing the majority of people who picked this book up had a very specific idea of what was meant by this phrase, given that, you know, it’s ST:TOS and all. (she’s probably green, wearing something not entirely practical but quite flattering, and Kirk has a thing for her…..)

this particular alien, however, is quite literally a spider made of glass.

but she is very pretty.

When I subvert a trope, I subvert it.  :) (Yes, I wrote the back cover copy.)

(In an earlier version it was “A pretty blue-eyed alien scientist…”. I have no shame whatsoever.)
