A review by zanebrumley
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds: The High Country by John Jackson Miller

4.0

3.5 rounded up. John Jackson Miller is my favorite tie-in author, and he does not disappoint here.

The High Country is a classic Star Trek western story, and JJM is no stranger to space westerns. This book has a lot of the classic JJM charm: a well-rounded ensemble cast of classic and original characters, a large and well-defined setting (with a map!), and fantastic canon connections to anchor the story to its respective franchise.

Though The High Country isn't my favorite JJM or Star Trek read, this is a strong start to Strange New Worlds tie-in fiction. I look forward to many more stories from this era, and I hope JJM returns again soon!
