STV Flashback - A good novelization!, Déc 14 2003
As part of the thirtieth anniversary of Star Trek, the producers of Star Trek decided to honor and make tribute to the Original Series through the two series that were currently airing, Star Trek Deep Space Nine and Star Trek Voyager. "Flashback" is Voyagers entry in that tributary role and plays well as such, with a story that centers on the USS Excelsior and its leader, Captain Sulu.I'm quite certain that George Takei was ecstatic to get an opportunity to don the Starfleet uniform one more time as Captain Sulu and take the bridge of the Excelsior. The show was a great show in so many ways, yet for me, the story seemed a little forced or least not as fluidic a story as it should've been. It is with that memory of the episode in mind that I picked up the novelization. As most novelizations in Star Trek are done, Diane Carey received the nod for this novel and as usual, she does an outstanding job of greatly enhancing the original story. In this case it's the story of one of Star Trek Voyager's executive producers and most prominent writers, Brannon Braga. With "Flashback," Diane Carey's usual good pacing and between the scenes on the screen scenes, make for another good novelization. The cover art for "Flashback," isn't all that imaginative but it does do the casual reader some good as far as letting them know that if they pick this one up, they're going to see something very rare in a Star Trek novel, Captain's Janeway and Sulu in the same story. The premise: Lieutenant Tuvok, while appearing to be a young officer, in fact has lived long enough to have served aboard the USS Excelsior with Captain Sulu as her captain. When Voyager enters a strange nebula, he starts to have "problems." Before long, these "problems" become life threatening and soon Captain Janeway, who considers Tuvok to be her closest friend, is there to help him... What follows from there is a highly intriguing story in the Star Trek Voyager canon and I highly recommend this novelization if you wish to further your knowledge of the events that occurred during that episode. {ssintrepid}
