Rebels: The Courageous. 
  
Deep Space Nine is no longer under Starfleet's care as the Bajorans take running the station for a test drive, while Sisko and the crew of the Defiant find themselves in a no-win Prime Directive scenario on one of the strangest worlds you'll ever read about for Star Trek.

In this episode of Literary Treks hosts Matthew Rushing and Casey Pettitt talk about the second book in the Deep Space Nine trilogy Rebels, The Courageous. We discuss Sisko and his group's story, the Defiant, Jadzia and Julian, an Orb experience, our ratings and final thoughts. 

In the news we talk about post Picard literature, then we review Star Trek #6, Defiant #2, The Illyrian Enigma #4 and The Dog of War #1.
