At TrekWeb. Includes plot details on the various Myriad Universes novels, which look fascinating.

THE CHIMES AT MIDNIGHT by Geoff Trowbridge: In a continuum where Spock died during childhood, an Andorian named Thelin became Captain Kirk's stalwart friend and first officer...

Oh wow!!!!

[Geoff]

^^^
Yeah, I thought you'd have a mild interest in this one.

HOLY CRAP. HOLY CRAP, all six of those sound awsome. I was gonna try to pick one that sounded the coolest, but I've come to conclusion that that is not possible.

[ialfan]

I'm really looking forward to 'A Less Perfect Union'. An unexpected ENT story (sort of) in 2008!

[greenmystik]

Those books are going to be awesome!!!

Is there gonna be more MU books or just these two?

That will probably depend on how well these first two sell.

[Christopher]

MyrU ("MU" means Mirror Universe) is certainly a concept with endless potential, so as long as these two sell well, there's no reason not to continue -- and there's certainly no lack of interest in doing so.

[Trent Roman]

It would be neat if the Myriad Universes project would turn into a semi-regular thing, like a volume every two years or so. 'Course I probably ought to read them first, but I trust I'll be suitably blown away.

Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

Going by these descriptions alone, I'd buy any other MryU books that came out.

SEEDS OF DISSENT by James Swallow: Khan victorious! Almost four centuries after conquering their world, genetically enhanced humans dominate a ruthless interstellar empire. But the warship Defiance, under its augmented commander, Princeps Julian Bashir, makes a discovery that could shake the pillars of his proud civilization: an ancient sleeper ship from Earth named the Botany Bay.

OOOO...that sounds very interesting, especially since Bashir is one of my favorite characters. I greatly look forward to it.

The rest sound pretty interesting, too, although the Enterprise tale doesn't hold much interest for me (sorry, Bill!).

A LESS PERFECT UNION by William Leisner: More than a hundred years after the Terra Prime movement achieved its dream of an isolationist Earth, humanity is once again at a fork in the river of history . . . and the path it follows may ultimately be determined by the voice of a single individual: the sole surviving crewmember of the first Starship Enterprise.

Please tell me it isn't Trip again - why won't this guy die?!

Sounds like a fantastic read though, they all do. Can't decide which I'm more excited about, Seeds of Dissent, or KRAD's A Gutted World.

[William Leisner]

^^ Eh, I get the royalties from the sale, either way.

And I would just stress the point that ALPU is set many, many years after ENT... and does not involve holodeck recreations of the ENT timeframe.

[Rosalind]

^ hmmm.... a hundred years after ENT, that leaves... T'Pol?

[Titus Andronicus]

I'm looking forward to all of these stories, but especially Chimes at Midnight. Also, I'm interested to read the story about the terrorist Kira participating in an Interstellar War.
