The plot concerns several crew members' efforts to deal with the aftereffects of the V'Ger entity and the long-term ripples of overthrowing a computer intelligence on Yonada so many years ago.
The writers of the 2009 Star Trek film cite the book as one of their favorites.[1]
"[Ex Machina is] a great example of how a 'Trek' novel can fit within 'canon' while existing between the movies we love."
— Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci
