新宇宙大作戦 サレックへの挽歌〈下〉 (ハヤカワ文庫SF)

William Shatner’s involvement adds a unique perspective, but I wonder how much of the story was shaped by existing lore versus original ideas.

There were moments of intense action and quieter character moments — I’m curious if that balance was intentional or just how the story evolved.

The novel seems to play with themes of media and heroism, which feels very relevant today. Did that come from the author's personal interests or a conscious decision to mirror modern culture?
