    I just got a copy of Dayton's TNG: Armageddon's Arrow. Started it, and liking it so far. Did notice a mistake on page 32...it's implied that it's only been 3 years from the events of Destiny, when the historian's note clearly states that this story takes place in January 2386, which is just under 5 years since Destiny, which was is in February 2381. I'm a tad bit nitpicky I guess :shrug:

    Star Trek New Visions #6 "Resistance" by John Byrne.

    Perhaps not the best Borg story but to me it was well done while retaining the classic series atmosphere.
    Of course it was another 'we'll never say their name' situation but I actually did not mind it that much.

    In general these photo novel comics Byrne has been producing turned out better than I first thought they would. I am actually pleasantly surprised.

    My copies of Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek: The Original Cast Adventures and The Star Trek Universe: Franchising the Final Frontier by Douglas Brode and Shea T. Brode arrived from Amazon.ca yesterday. Saved quite a bit by preordering a couple of months ago.

    I got my copy of Star Trek Sce Wounds. I really like the first 2 stories took place on ds9 and we had Kira, Ro Laren, Elias Vaughn and other familiar characters like Jadzia Dax being in a story was a nice surprise.:bolian: Kilana you'll like the ds9 characters stories in the Seven Deadly sins trilogy. Mu Ben Sisko's story was one of my favorite stories in that story collection.

    I already enjoyed Assignment: Eternity, so this will be fun. I'm just relieved, that the Khan book wasn't lost beyond recovery. :)

    I've picked up Kalte Berechnung - Die Beständigkeit der Erinnerung (Cold Equations - Persistence of Memory) by David Mack at my local book store.

    And Amazon has delivered Vulcan's Soul I - Exodus.

    As I mentioned in the new NF thread, Part 1 of "New Frontier: The Returned" just downloaded to my iPhone as an eBook, and Parts 2 & 3 are on pre-order! The first new "Star Trek: New Frontier" in a loooong time! Looking forward to it so much!

    Can't wait to read it. My first eBook in ages. (First eBook ever was the "No Limits" NF anthology... because I couldn't wait for the air-freighted hardcopy).

    I saw a little "Best seller" banner flashing under Part 1! Great news!

    Star Trek New Visions 7 by John Byrne and published by IDW.
    Sadly not as strong as the previous issue and a plot we have seen before (okay we also saw it in the previous issue but I personally felt it was used better)
