There's this Omnibus edition:

https://a.co/d/bBRVaU6
Thanks. I did see that. I guess I was right, though, in that there are no Kindle/ebook versions of those three books individually. Makes me kind of regret paying for any of the other books in the series already in Kindle (even at the sale prices) if I’m going to have to buy the Omnibus anyway to have them all in digital. Same with the first three New Frontier books (which is only available in Kindle for book two and for the Omnibus).

Here’s what I came up with, the Trek novels not available in Kindle (not including young adult series):

TOS Enterprise: The First Adventure
TOS Probe
VOY #2 The Escape
Shatner The Ashes of Eden
VOY #3 Ragnarok
VOY #4 Violations
Shatner The Return
VOY #8 Cybersong
Shatner Avenger
(Misc) Starfleet Academy (game novelization)
New Frontier #1 House of Cards*
New Frontier #3 The Two-Front War*
New Frontier #4 End Game*
Captain’s Table #2 TNG Dujonian’s Hoard*
Captain’s Table #3 DS9 The Mist*
Captain’s Table #4 VOY Fire Ship*

(* Books available in an Omnibus edition that is available in Kindle/ebook.)

Omnibuses available only in print (no Kindle)**
Invasion
Mere Anarchy
(?)
SCE/COE Out of the Cocoon
SCE/COE What’s Past

(** Omnibus editions published by Simon & Schuster. The Science Fiction Book Club made some omnibus editions exclusive to them back in the day, like Greg Cox’s Q Continuum trilogy. This does not include those.)

I think that’s it. Again, not including the 1993-1998 young adult novels, which unless I’m mistaken only Worf’s First Adventure (TNG) and The Star Ghost (DS9) are available in Kindle. (Young adult VOY Honor Bound is available in the Day of Honor omnibus, though, and that’s available in Kindle.)

That's excellent work, David! Maybe Simon and Schuster should be contacted about those? There are so many Star Trek books printed that those just might have fallen through the cracks. I would try emailing them your list and sending a letter to the current editor over Star Trek books.

Thanks for the tip about Star Trek Movie Memories! I wish I’d noticed that Shatner’s TOS Memories book had been at $1.99 in June! Hopefully it will drop again soon. I have both of them in the original hardcovers (which I read way back when they first came out) but love getting the eBooks, too.

Gemini Agent and The Assassination Game (books three and four of the Kelvin Timeline Starfleet Academy young adult series) are both $2.99 right now on Amazon U.S. They have been for a couple days (since August 2nd, I think). So, no idea how long they will stay that price. (Book 1, The Edge, is still $7.99, and Book 2, The Delta Anomaly, is $11.99. Delta is the only one of the four with a crossed out price showing, $14.99. I assume that’s the standard non discounted price for these? Gemini and Assassination Game are now the first two that I’ve bought.)

I don’t know if it’s the same in the US, but the original Star Trek Memories is showing as $3.99 today on Amazon Canada.
 
Delta Anomaly (Kelvin YA novel #1) is also at $2.99 now on Amazon (U.S.).


— David Young

(Corrected. I said it was Kelvin YA novel #2 originally.)

Sword of Damocles is the only Titan book to not hit this type of sale. The Kindle is almost twice what I paid for the paperback in 2007. I wonder why.
