Personal Log, Stardate 2024.1
Dear Diary,
Just finished listening to Star Trek: Log Three and I'm still grinning. Alan Dean Foster really knows how to capture the spirit of the Enterprise crew, and the audio format makes it feel like you're right there in the briefing room with them.
The three episodes in this collection each hit different notes. "Once Upon a Planet" had me holding my breath - there's something deeply unsettling about your own imagination turning against you. The way Foster describes the fantasy scenarios gone wrong while keeping Kirk's logical voice cutting through the chaos? Brilliant stuff. You can almost hear William Shatner's distinctive delivery as you listen to the captain sort through each crewmember's private dreams.
But it's "Mudd's Passion" that really shines in audio form. The idea of Spock under the influence of a love potion is comedy gold, and hearing his normally measured tones twisted by infatuation while still maintaining that Vulcan dignity? Pure magic. I found myself rewinding just to catch Scotty's reactions again. The chemistry between characters comes through so much more vividly when you're listening rather than reading.
"The Magicks of Megas-Tu" surprised me with its philosophical undertones. Lucien's familiar presence had me guessing until the end, and the exploration of power versus wisdom felt weighty despite the fantastical elements.
Foster's background in bringing visual media to life really shows here. Each scene unfolds clearly in your mind, and the pacing keeps you engaged throughout. These aren't just retold episodes - they're lovingly crafted adaptations that honor both the source material and the audio medium.
Worth every minute of listening time.
Until next log,
Your faithful reviewer
