Toward the Night
by James Swallow
2025
Pike's Enterprise investigates strange signals near Klingon space and finds traces of a lost Starfleet vessel. Spock, Una, Pike, and Ortegas face a mystery tied to past and future.
Series background & context
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds follows Captain Pike's Enterprise before the Original Series. It brings back a classic exploration tone: new planets, moral puzzles, strange science, and a crew still finding the shape of its future.
James Swallow's Toward the Night sends Pike, Spock, Una, Ortegas, and the Enterprise into a mystery near Klingon space. The story involves strange signals, a dead world, a lost Starfleet vessel, and questions about the past catching up with the present.
If you enjoy Pike's crew on screen, this is an easy prose extension. It is built for readers who want a full episode with more room for inner lives and larger consequences.
