I was on a fast pace this year, blasting through a lot of books when I suddenly hit the brick wall that is Chainmail, the one and only book in the Challenger "series", it's also the 2nd book in the Gateway series and I'm trying to finish that off. I vaguely remember someone writing that it was basically a sci-fi book masquerading as a Star Trek book and on that point I totally agree.
Take away a couple throw away lines referencing Kirk and Scotty, replace a handful of references to Starfleet with another name and remove Star Trek from the cover and you got a straigh sci-fi book. And what I'm not even finding that interesting.

Well, it has been announced that I will be penning a tale for the next Myriad Universes volume. Beyond that, who knows?

I'm reading both The 34th Rule and The Fall of Terok Nor alongside reading through the complete works of Robert Rankin.
Now that I am finished with Over a Torrent Sea, I am re reading the Mirror Universe books. That should last me till Full Circle comes out..eagerly anticipating it!
TOS: The Rift. I'm on a PAD kick after reading Captain's Table: Once Burned and remembering how good the dude is, and I haven't read this one in so long that I don't remember it at all. Just finished the Pike section; the detail about the computer's voice is cute.
I think I liked Death In Winter more than most folks, haven't read the other two you mentioned yet. I pretty much like PAD more than MJF, it's just that Legacy is probably my 2nd favorite MJF book, after Reunion, and The Rift, although a fun read, was not my favorite PAD book. Just how the curves intersect...
Somebody in my little town doesn't like Trek books by guys called David - I just picked up mint, unread copies of Destiny, Vanguard and Crucible for 50p a throw in the local charity shops.
The only other Trek book in any of them is a battered old copy of New Earth book 1 that's been in the Age Concern shop for months.
For once I'm actually glad I haven't done a full-length Trek novel!

After I finish the 6th Captain's Table book (also a Pike story), I'm going to read Reunion and The Valiant (collected in Pantheon), so I'll let you know if I agree
The Rift is quite good, particularly the interaction between the Andorian and Tellarite.
I went way retro. I just finished "Covenant of the Crown" today. Wasn't half bad for a pre-numbered numbered book. Kinda liked the Bones characterization.
Requiem is terrific and Kahless is okay IMO. The collaborations Doomsday World and Wrath of the Profits are good.
I liked Death in Winter, but I tend to be in the minority on most opinions on Trek books...
