Majliss Larson

Majliss Larson (1939-2022) was an American writer born in Kokomo, Indiana, known for a single entry in the licensed Star Trek: The Original Series tie-in novel line published by Pocket Books. Her novel Pawns and Symbols (1985) appeared during the franchise's most prolific era of original tie-in fiction, when authors were commissioned to write standalone adventures for Kirk, Spock, and the Enterprise crew between the film releases of the 1980s. She also contributed to Star Trek Twentieth Anniversary Collection II (1987), an anthology marking ten years since the franchise's cinematic revival. Beyond this body of tie-in work, detailed public information about her broader writing career and personal life remains sparse.
