Myconfinedspace.com has added a new review for Una McCormack‘s “Star Trek: Picard: Second Self”:
Following in the foot steps of most of the other “Star Trek: Picard” novels, this story doesn’t follow Picard at all, he’s more of a book end character and one of the supporting characters from the show are the main stars in the books. In this case it’s Raffi who gets the spotlight and we sorts find out why she’s such a broken person when we first meet her in the show. This is necessarily mostly in flashback, then there’s flashbacks within the flashbacks, so it gets somewhat confusing after a bit. I was happy with the way the book was written, it was captivating, but I’m not a fan of how some of the characters were treated and Raffi’s actually issues still seem to be stemming from a deeper trauma than what we learned about here. I’m also exceptionally unhappy with how another legacy character is treated and I’m going to consider that aspect of the story as a non-canon situation in the hope that they’ll be treated better in the future.
