About This Audiobook
Set in 1991 at the height of Star Trek: The Next Generation's cultural dominance, this darkly comic autobiographical novel follows Brent Spiner as sudden fame transforms his life in unexpected and unsettling ways. When mysterious packages and threatening letters begin arriving, what starts as an odd curiosity escalates into something requiring the attention of Paramount Security, the LAPD, and the FBI. The book explores the strange, sometimes frightening territory between celebrity and devotion, blending memoir and fiction into a genre Spiner calls "mem-noir."
What elevates the listening experience is the remarkable cast: nearly the entire TNG ensemble, including Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, LeVar Burton, Marina Sirtis, Gates McFadden, and Michael Dorn, all reprise their real-world voices in a production that feels like a reunion as much as a performance. Spiner narrates his own story with dry wit, while the supporting cast lends genuine warmth and comic timing. The result is something no printed page could replicate, a story about fandom brought to life by the very people who inspired it.
