By TrekCore Staff - January 12, 2022
Simon & Schuster and StarTrek.com have announced that Star Trek: Picard will move into the world of original audio dramas this year, as a new tale starring series regulars Michelle Hurd and Jeri Ryan is coming in February.
Set after the events of Star Trek: Picard Season 1, the new audio drama No Man’s Land centers around Raffi Musiker (Michelle Hurd) and Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan), reprising their roles from the television series, as the tale explores the pair taking a holiday after the events of “Et in Arcadia Ego, Part 2.”
Here’s the official synopsis:
Simon & Schuster and StarTrek.com are excited to announce a new, original audio drama, “Star Trek: Picard — No Man’s Land.” Written and produced exclusively for audio and unavailable in any other format, “No Man’s Land” is a fully-dramatized “Star Trek” adventure featuring two beloved stars of the hit series “Star Trek: Picard” in their iconic roles – Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine, and Michelle Hurd as Raffi.
“No Man’s Land” begins in the immediate aftermath of the stunning season one conclusion of Picard. While Seven of Nine and Raffi are enjoying some much needed R&R in Raffi’s remote hideaway, their downtime is interrupted by an urgent cry for help: a distant, beleaguered planet has enlisted the Fenris Rangers to save an embattled evacuation effort.
As Seven and Raffi team up to rescue a mysteriously ageless professor, whose infinity-shaped talisman has placed him in the deadly sights of a vicious Romulan warlord, they take tentative steps to explore the attraction depicted in the final moments of “Picard” Season One.
The 100-minute audio drama is written by Star Trek: Picard co-creator Kirsten Beyer — also well known for her years in the Trek novel arena — and Mike Johnson, a longtime writer for IDW Publishing’s line of Star Trek comics.
Hurd and Ryan are joined by additional actors who will be rounding out the No Man’s Land cast, including Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Fred Tatasciore, along with John Kassir (Tales from the Crypt) and John Cutmore-Scott (Deception).
Star Trek: Picard — No Man’s Land will arrive to listeners on February 22, but is already available for preorder through Audible directly and through Amazon.
