Description

Rising Son.

The last time Jake Sisko was seen in the Deep Space
Nine relaunch, he had bought a ship from Quark and was headed into
the wormhole, in an effort to fulfill a prophecy that seemed to
indicate he would be reunited with his father. It would not be till
six books later that we would have an answer to the question, "What
happened to Jake?".

In this episode of Literary Treks hosts Matthew
Rushing and Dan Gunther talk about Rising Son. We discuss our first
impressions, Opaka's escape, Jake's life in his father's shadow,
how we live, free will, predestination, responsibility, life's
purpose, planting the seeds for the future and our
ratings. 

In our news segment we talk about the way the Star
Trek books hold up, judge a book by it's cover and then celebrate
the 100th episode by talking about some of the favorite books we've
covered, interviews and a sincere thank you to all of the listeners
for their support as well as to the authors for being so generous
with their time.
