Star Trek: Unspoken Truth<\/strong> by Margaret Wander Bonanno, published in 2010<\/p>\n After the Genesis incident Saavik was granted leave by Starfleet, but she signed up for a mission on another ship. It’s a mission to an unexplored planet, where a probe has revealed unidentifiable plants and a society of giant worms. Then one of the people she grew up with on Hellguard reveals that three of their group have recently died — he believes murdered.<\/p>\n If you’re a fan of Saavik, this is the book for you. It gives deeper insight into some of the actions we saw her take in the movies.<\/p>\n The main story takes place around the time of Star Trek IV<\/strong>. One part is a first contact story and another is a Romulan spy story — both are fascinating.<\/p>\n Bonanno has written several Star Trek<\/strong> novels including Strangers from the Sky<\/strong> and Burning Dreams<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" {4.5\/5} “‘Unpleasant truths are best left unspoken…’ She raised one hand in a gesture her mentor T’Pau was noted for, but T’Saan wore it more gently than the old aristocrat ever had. ‘Your concern for her safety is noted.
