{4.5\/5} “Getting into Starfleet, moving up the ranks, becoming a senior officer — those have been my goals since I was a kid. Now they’re within range — I can almost close my hands around those gold pips. I can’t afford to lose momentum. I can’t let anything get in the way of that goal.”<\/p>\n

Star Trek: The Lost Era — Deny Thy Father<\/strong> by Jeff Mariotte, published in 2003<\/p>\n

Kyle Riker is attacked in his home and later finds out that he’s being accused of conspiring with Tholians to attack Starbase 311 — he’s not sure if the two are related. Meanwhile, his son Will is in 2nd year at Starfleet Academy — he’s on a weeklong scavenger hunt in San Francisco for Admiral Paris’s class. Kyle and Will haven’t spoken to each other in 5 years.<\/p>\n

It’s about figuring out what kind of person you’re going to be.<\/p>\n

There are appearances from Benjamin Sisko, Katherine Pulaski, Leonard McCoy, and Kathryn Janeway.<\/p>\n

I’ve read 1 novel and 1 graphic novel by Mariotte.<\/p>\n

The previous novel in the Lost Era<\/strong> series is Well of Souls<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
