I read that when it came out. I seem to remember liking it but I remember nothing else.

I’ve got a signed copy too. Takei has been to a lot of conventions and signed a lot of books. It probably isn’t worth as much as you think.
Chris Elliott wrote a novel called The Shroud of the Thwacker, about a modern detective who travels back to the late 1800s to stop a serial killer. It was written as a comedy, but it wasn’t funny. At least, not intentionally. It could be funny in a MST3K-subject kind of way.
Heh. He was quoted as saying, “When I want to read a good book, I write one.”
I read a very bad scifi novel which Newt Gingrich wrote before he became Speaker of the House. A friend of mine has read his Civil War alternate-history books and says they’re pretty good.
Craig Ferguson, the late night talk show host and comedian, wrote “Between the Bridge and the River” Really, a terrific first novel.
For what it’s worth, I believe Mitchell was a fairly well-known local socialite and popular newspaper columnist before writing her novel.
Don Imus wrote God’s Other Son, a farce about televangelist who’s a supposed brother to Jesus. Worth a few chuckles every now and then, but it wasn’t very good.
Astronaut Buzz Aldrin co-wrote a couple of science fiction novels with John Barnes. I don’t know how involved Buzz was in their creation. I read one; It wasn’t bad but it wasn’t good enough for me to remember what it was about.
I’ve read it. It’s OK (futurstic ninja who swordfights and has a real invisibility cape). I suspect co-author Robert Lynn Aspirin had more to do with the writing than Takei, though.
Walter Koenig has co-written a couple of SF novels, and Shatner’s name, as mentioned above, is on a few. I’m surprised more Trek actors dont have their names on books.
Nimoy, I suspect, really did write his books. But they’re not fiction, and I haven’t read them.
