The complex storylines of Deep
Space Nine
 are the perfect playground for Una McCormack,
an author who carries a PhD in sociology into her approach to Star
Trek. Beginning with the short story “Face Value” in the collection
Prophecy and Change, Una has explored Cardassia, the repurcussions
of “In the Pale Moonlight,” and even played with Ezri Dax in the
continuing Star Trek universe. In this episode of Literary
Treks
 we’re joined by Una to discuss why  "margin-bottom: 0px;">Deep Space Nine is her favourite
series, how she got involved in writing Star Trek, bringing female
characters to the forefront, and the intricacies of freedom and how
we are all interconnected.
