    I'm waiting to see how the books actually read first. My biggest fear of course is how the Borg will be defeated. I'm definitely hoping the one blurb is wrong about settling the issue.

    Wow, just wow, that sounds awsome. I'm assuming since they came from David's website that they should be accurate. Although judging by the other descriptions on the site they are probably not the actul blurbs.

    The blurb for Book 1 doesn't say much, but I do like what the Book 2 blurb suggests about that volume and the preceeding one. This should be an edge-of-your-seat kind of story.

    Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

    Yeah it sounds great. The fact of that the borg invasion doesn't seem to happen within the first two books seems to downplay the fact these are "borg" books and more a galactic mystery.
    So this aint about Borg invasion, more of an "impending" borg invasion.

    Now this is what I call a story.

    The Borg only seem to be bit players in these so we can expect them to have their (hopefully final) exeunt in book 3.

    Now I just need to read GTTS, hurry up Amazon UK!!

    I'm still trying to figure out the 4 ships thing, because those only mention 3. Unless they are including the ship that's been destroyed, which judging by what we've seen and heard might be
    Columbia

    I'm so glad David Mack is writing this Trilogy.

    I've been a fan of Mr. Mack's ever since Vance Hawkins got captured and decided to mess with the interrogator just for shits and giggles.

    Can't wait to see what's next.

    Is it really a spoiler if...

    ... if the Columbia was already shown in the Ships of the Line book to have been lost in the Gamma Quadrant and Captain Hernandez is on the cover of book one?"

    I guess not. I wasn't sure, so I figured I'd just be careful.

    Just in case you wanted to see them again, here's the cover for book 1, Gods of Night, and book 2, Mere Mortals. I love these covers.

    Ummm ... you said that is from David Mack? I just wanted to be sure. Because that sounds like something I want to have in my hands five minutes ago.
