The Federation is usually in the position of "good" pitted against
clear foes such as the Klingons, the Romulans, or the Dominion. But
what if it encountered a group that looked very much like itself?
How would the Federation react and how far can you trust someone
after glimpsing only the surface? In this episode of Literary Treks
hosts Matthew Rushing and Christopher Jones are joined by author
William Leisner to talk about his new TOS novel The Shocks of
Adversity, the inspiration for the Federation's seeming reflection
in the Goeg Domain, and the issue of cultural tolerance. We also
find out how William original got into Star Trek and how he found
himself writing for the franchise.
