Didn't we knew that text about Shattered Lights already and already guessed that it was just a promo text for the first two Myriad Universes books, hence the six new realities?

Yep, that's the deal. Unfortunately, anything posted on the intertubes breeds like tribbles, so apparently we will never be rid of this confusing six realities reference.

I can tell you my novella, Honor in the Night, begins with an alternate outcome to "The Trouble with Tribbles" and then follows the ramifications to Klingon-Federation relations over the next hundred years, with appearances by various TOS, TNG, and DS9 characters. It also answers the question, "Why were Nilz Baris's dying words 'Arne Darvin'?"

He named his sled after a Klingon spy?

I sincerely apologize, I completely forgot that we saw that description already.

That would be telling . . .

No problem at all. Although it's too bad the outdated synopsis is cropping up all over the place, spreading like a fungus, I'm happy to explain the situation because it shows people are interested in the book!

Blind Man's Bluff

Following the dramatic events seen in the previous novels, After the Fall, Missing in Action, and Treason, Captain Mackenzie Calhoun and the crew of the U.S.S. Excalibur now face an uncertain future, as their lives and the very fate of Sector 221-G are thrown into utter chaos. With a storyline concurrent with The Next Generation, and picking up at a point where there have been significant changes, new and old readers alike will be captivated by this series.

I'm wondering if the concurrent with TNG thing will mean that they've jumped into the post-Destiny time-frame.

The concurrent with TNG part doesn't really give me that impression so much--they've been saying stuff like that since book 1 to try to get people interested in the series. (From the universe of Star Trek: The Next Generation...)

However, the "picking up at a point where there have been significant changes" certainly sounds like it could be a reference to Destiny...either that, or there have been significant changes to New Frontier since the last book? **shrugs** Well, at least we'll be captivated...

Well, there were some pretty dramatic events in Treason. But, that's not to say that I don't think this one is Post-Destiny, because I do.

It definitely sounds post-Destiny, which is kind of sad, considering how Treason ended.
