    They both sound amazing!!! And great follow-ons from both DS9 and the DS9 relaunch: so lovely to see.

    I feel so spoiled. When I became a ST fan in December 1979, desperately seeking out previous TOS episodes that had featured Andorians, revisiting "Yesteryear" (TAS) and "Mr Spock's Time Trek" (its View-Master adaptation) - and wishing Paramount would do a sequel to TMP featuring John Phillip Law as a rogue Andorian antagonist - I never imagined that so many tie-in novels (and episodes of "Enterprise") would start focusing on Andorians decades down the track.

    Bliss.

    Maybe I'm missing something, but are there any blurbs for the first novel available anywhere?

    The blurb for the first novel is the generic blurb about The Fall:

    It'll all be for the best if it gets rid of his duplicitous girlfriend...

    That's kind of what it sounds like, but you gotta remember that David Mack is the author. I'm sure several thousand/million other people will also die :devil:

    Or I wonder if this will be the death of Bashir?

    Those sound really good. I'm hopping I'll be caught up with the 24th Century stuff by the time the series is coming up.

    I need to get caught up on the Typhon Pact books by the time these come out. Seems like another Destiny type level of awesomeness based on the title.

    ^^I'm of the opinion the title just refers to the season fall, also known as autumn. Given the series covers a sixty day period, that could easily be October and November.

    ^I gather that is actually where the title came from in reality -- the editor and authors talking about what the fall project for 2013 would be, and the description sticking -- but I'm pretty certain that's not what it means in-story.

    Maybe it's a book mini-series about Deanna's latest hairpiece?

    The first book introduces the influential new members of the Klingon High Council, the House of Ush'er.

    Doesn't one of the books have something to do with Deanna Troi learning to make souffle?

    TOS has ruled 2013 for the first half of the year with an iron grip. So I am looking forward to this series with great anticipation. Just to mix it up a bit;)
