Great for the fans.

A little more background on Captain Janeway's life and some extra details about the crew and missions of Voyager.
A good and entertaining listen for any fan.

Closure is Bittersweet

I’ve loved Star Trek Voyager the best of all Star Trek and I always felt like something was missing in the story and this was it.

Now it’s finally complete, Live Long and Prosper 🖖.

One of Starfleet's finest

Gotta admit I only grabbed this because Kate Mulgrew did the narration, but hearing her voice makes it worthwhile. And to hear Janeway herself say she struggled with her decisions over some of Voyager's more...iffy missions (eg, Tuvix) adds a new level of depth to those episodes.

Wondeful

Thoroughly enjoyed it. Brought closure to so many storylines from Voyager. Mulgrew's voice is like silk and the stories are fantastic

What about Tuvix?

I have never before used "memoir" and "sci-fi" as shelves for the same book before this moment. However, the word "autobiography" in this title made it imperative to do so.

Having just watched "Star Trek: Voyager" and "Star Trek: Prodigy" again this year, this audiobook was an obvious choice. Narration by Kate Mulgrew is icing on the cake.

The sections dealing with Kate's early life, and with actual episodes of the TV series were interesting, but it falls down when dealing with events that were filmed after the book was published.

That's the problem with fiction. Things change.

Incredible

I loved this book from start to finish. Hearing Kate Mulgrew speak as Janeway once again is such a treat and comfort in this uncertain times.
