I found closure for the series in this novel!
I loved this show, and the only complaint I had was the lack of closure for the series. I couldn't help wondering how it all worked out.
Now this may seem ridiculous, but back in 1985 Barbara Hambly wrote a novel titled "Ishmael" that takes place during the last few weeks of the year that the Bolt brothers had to get the brides married off. I found it to be a very satisfying closure for the series. For me, anyway - it won't be everyone's cup of tea.
Because here's what you might find ridiculous: it's a "Star Trek" novel. No, seriously. I think what probably inspired it was that Mark Lenard (Aaron Stemple) also played Spock's father in "Star Trek".
Here's a link (copy and paste into your browser): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0671554271/sr=8-10/qid=1141691119/ref=pd_bbs_10/104-6222009-0751105?%5Fencoding=UTF8
And here's the premise:
The Klingons go back in time (to Seattle) to assassinate a man who will somehow make things difficult for them in the future. Spock gets trapped on their ship and goes along for the ride. He is left for dead in the woods, but found and nursed back to health by a man named Aaron Stemple. Aaron is no fool - he realizes that Spock ain't from 'round here.
Hambly must have been as big a HCTB fan as a ST fan, because the two shows are very well balanced in this story, and I think HCTB fans will thoroughly enjoy the novel.
If you have read it, I'd love to hear your thoughts. If not, give it a try and let me know!
