Zeichick Look for "The Wounded Sky" by Diane Duane; as Star Trek books go, this is pretty good, even though the blurb on the back cover seems a bit misleading: the alien scientist K't'lk sounds very nice, but hardly pretty! Ms. Duane is obviously a very profound thinker, and I look forward to more of her books. This book is very new; publication date was this month. As a note, I maintain a listing of all ST fiction books; if anyone wants a copy, just ask me for one. How much longer is SFL's infatuation with Dr. Who going to last? Maybe it's just a bit of sour grapes, since we don't see it in Bangor, but I saw a recent series when I was over in Britain for the summer, and I was *NOT* impressed. Actually, I thought "Blakes Seven" was a much better SF series. The plots were a little more valid, the people very interesting, and the technology more plausible. Does anyone know if "Blakes Seven" was/is shown in the U.S.? -Alan
