Lieutenant Saru is a Kelpien, a member of a prey species born on a world overrun by monstrous predators…and a being who very intimately understands the nature of fear.
Challenged on all sides, he is determined to surpass his origins and succeed as a Starfleet officer aboard the U.S.S. Shenzhou.
But when Saru breaks protocol in order to prove himself to his crewmates, what begins as a vital rescue mission to save a vessel in distress soon escalates out of control.
Forced into a command role he may not be ready for, Saru is caught between his duty and the conflicting agendas of two antagonistic alien races.
To survive, he will need to seek a path of peace against all odds, and risk compromising the very ideals he has sworn to uphold….
It's been a great experience penning this novel, getting the chance to work so closely with the Discovery writer's room and unfold a little more of Saru's background. I'll be talking more about it in the weeks and months ahead...
Star Trek Discovery - Fear Itself will be out on or around June 5th, in dead-tree, eBook and audiobook editions. More details Here at the Simon & Schuster website.
