A Dangerous Trade
20th April 2024
Having finally managed to catch up on all the episodes of Star Trek: Prodigy’s first season, I felt comfortable starting my dive into the three novels that have been published.
It is a short novel, and clearly printed for younger authors, with large, sans-serif text on very cheap paper, and a fast pace story.
The most important thing for me though is that the author has totally captured the feeling of Prodigy. The book reads just like it’s an episode of the TV series, with the right pacing, the right use of the characters, the right peril, and the right morals.
Compared with early novels from other Star Treks, this feels the most spot on with its characterisation and world. Every character gets a chance to shine and I loved it for that.
A jolly good little adventure.
