Description

Mere Anarchy: Things Fall
Apart.

2006 saw the celebration of 40 years of Star Trek and
to celebrate Pocket Books put together an ebook series comprising
of six books that would span the entire Original Series timeline.
Each story would build on the next as Kirk and his crew dealt with
the aftermath of a disaster on the planet Mestiko.

In this episode of Literary Treks hosts Matthew
Rushing and Dan Gunther talk about the first book in the Mere
Anarchy series, Things Fall Apart. We discuss the setting, the
dilemma of the people on Mestiko, Kirk's burden, The Prime
Directive, and the series long game. 

In our news segment we rave about Rob Caswell's new
Seekers book covers for Long Shot and All That's Left.
