Thought I'd try reading a Star Trek novel so I went for The Antares Maelstrom by Greg Cox.
It had good characterizations of the familiar star-ship crew but felt slow and poorly paced. I guess coz it's so much longer than a 50 minute TV show.
The way the Federation has supposedly done away with money and need makes a gold-rush story difficult to fathom. How can you have a gold-rush ("pangeum" rather than actual gold) of people heading to a mining-planet if nobody uses money or has any personal wealth?
By making the planet only a potential Federation member, it turns out.
Then everyone can act like a Ferengi.
Anyway, it was okay, but didn't really feel much like watching the old TV shows did.

Many of the rented rooms were far from luxurious, but they made up for modest offerings with hospitality and affordability. A large number of these places were in the Catskills,…

"Rochko's reluctance to integrate valuable functionality, which limits the impact of all the innovation that's happening in #forks, is a continual source of frustration. And many people in the #fediverse disagree with Rochko's strong support for federation with Threads – especially given

phpc.social has defederated with wulf.social as it's currently being used as a spam vector, hasn't had admin post activity in months, and hasn't interacted with our instance prior to spamming it.
We're erring on the side of keeping federation so instance admins whose only crime was allowing open signups don't get caught in the crossfire, but if an instance is abandonware other than spam, sorry :(

Series B, Episode 04 - Horizon
JENNA: And this could be it?
BLAKE: Well, it's as good as any other. We know the Federation only visit it once a year. It's on the edge of the spiral rim. Oh, hell, I'm tired of running, Jenna. We must get at least one planet behind us.

Series D, Episode 11 - Orbit
EGRORIAN: It is a threat. Like you, I have a price on my head. So, having revealed my little sanctuary, I cannot allow you and your colleagues to leave. Not, at any rate, until we've reached an agreement.
AVON: [V.O.] The Federation gave up looking for you a long time ago, Egrorian. You are a forgotten man. [Pinder laughs. Egrorian looks annoyed.]

Series D, Episode 10 - Gold
KEILLER: At the mine on Zerok, they process the gold. They change its atomic constitution. It turns black. And it's useless until it's reprocessed, and that can't happen unless you know the computer code that was used on Zerok the day it was processed. Zerok won't release that code until the gold is in the hands of the Federation.
TARRANT: So, if we could steal it, what use is black gold to us?

BLAKE: Shivan? We'd thought he'd been killed in a Federation trap.
NAGU: A vile betrayal, and all but fatal. I managed to get him to the therapists in Outer Gaul. He lives now only to see the fulfillment of his cause.
