Trekmovie.com has added a new review for Una McCormack‘s “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds: Asylum”:

Little has been said in canon about the Starfleet Academy careers of Una Chin-Riley (a.k.a. “Number One,” a.k.a. “Numero Una” “Don’t call her that. No one called her that.”) and Captain Christopher Pike. In the Strange New Worlds episode “Ad Astra per Aspera” we learn that Una’s admission to the Academy was sponsored by Captain Robert April, and that she first met Christopher Pike when she challenged his facts following an inspiring speech he gave at the Academy. We also know (from “Lost in Translation”) that one of her Academy instructors was Pelia, who gave her a “well-deserved” C on her final paper for Starship Maintenance 307. We also know that by the time she was at the Academy, Una had already been long accustomed to hiding her background as an Illyrian, lying to April, Pike, and all of Starfleet, out of fear of being arrested and drummed out of the Fleet for violating the Federation’s laws against genetic modifications.
