Publisher Description
The first novel based on the thrilling Paramount+ TV series Star Trek: Strange New Worlds!
When an experimental shuttlecraft fails, Captain Christopher Pike suspects a mechanical malfunction—only to discover the very principles on which Starfleet bases its technology have simply stopped functioning. He and his crewmates are forced to abandon ship in a dangerous maneuver that scatters their party across the strangest new world they’ve ever encountered.
First Officer Una Chin-Riley finds herself fighting to survive an untamed wilderness where dangers lurk at every turn. Young cadet Nyota Uhura struggles in a volcanic wasteland where things are not as they seem. Science Officer Spock is missing altogether. And Pike gets the chance to fulfill a childhood dream: to live the life of a cowboy in a world where the tools of the twenty-third century are of no use.
Yet even in the saddle, Pike is still very much a starship captain, with all the responsibilities that entails. Setting out to find his crewmates, he encounters a surprising face from his past—and discovers that one people’s utopia might be someone else’s purgatory. He must lead an exodus—or risk a calamity of galactic proportions that even the Starship Enterprise is powerless to stop...

I loved it but I suspect it won’t be for everybody
I loved this, the first novel based on the popular new episodic series on Paramount+. I found this to be one of my favorite Star Trek novels in recent memory but perhaps it’s because one of my favorite episodes from Enterprise, called Northstar, is something of a prequel to this tale.
I won’t say too much so as not to spoil anything but I might suggest that if you enjoyed Northstar then you may enjoy The High Country, and the opposite may be true.
Hit it.
JJM kills it yet again with another wonderful book. This novel really feels like an epic journey that I would love to see on screen. Pike and the crew of the Enterprise really had an amazing journey between these pages. Would rank 10/10 if I could.
