    Strange New Worlds Asylum | Una McCormack On Her Brand New Novel

    On this Bonus Pod, Emcee and Julian sit down with New York Times Best Selling Author Dr. Una McCormack to discuss her latest novel, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Asylum. There are spoilers in this episode.

    How was ir writing for Captain Pike and Number One? How did the writer's strike affect the novel? This and so much more!

    When Una Chin-Riley and Christopher Pike meet at Starfleet Academy after one of his lectures, they immediately become friends. A stellar student, Una is the “poster girl” of her class, and Pike is determined to become a Starfleet captain with his own ship, rhetorically assembling his dream crew. As their friendship evolves, Pike also suspects Una is involved with the Euxhana, a Chionian cultural minority, who are seeking asylum in Federation space, leading to more questions than answers.

    Twenty-five years later, Una and Pike are working together on the USS Enterprise to settle a Chionian trade agreement when a pro-Euxhana saboteur launches a terrorist attack. When the suspect is taken into custody for interrogation and is discovered to have a history with Una, her past associations resurface, threatening to expose a secret she’s been harboring all these years…
