I didn't mind the start of it, with Sisko returning for the birth of his daughter. Considering Avery Brooks' own disapproval of the idea of Sisko leaving his pregnant wife and unborn child, it made sense for him to come back for it. But his portrayal in the DRG post-Destiny DS9 novels never sat...

Yeah, I tend to look at things with what I tend to think of as the Xena mindset (I call it that primarily because I settled on the philosophy while watching Xena). You can play fast and loose with when and what happened in the past (whenever 'the past' is for your characters), especially if you...

I'm not trying to put anything in her mouth here, but her dislike of TNG, which was where Barclay originated, is well documented, and it makes me wonder if she simply didn't like the character, that maybe she would have seen him as someone who should have been put off the ship, and didn't like...

That reminds me of how, back in high school, I started there the year it opened, and they actually did have a couple of Star Trek novels in the books they had. Specifically, there were a couple of the Dark Matters trilogy, but seemingly not the whole set - I only ever recall seeing like two of...

It was just a couple of weeks ago that David Mack announced a successful draft conclusion on Blue Sky, so it might just be that the blurb just hasn’t been finalized yet on that basis.

I think that would count more as an editor or publisher habit, rather than a writing one. Though a guess on my entirely-amateur part would be that things like a title page and a publication page count towards the final page count, because they are a part of the publication itself, even if not a...

The dedication plaques on the bridges of various ships, referencing Gene Roddenberry, Rick Berman, Michael Piller, Jeri Taylor, etc. would beg to differ.

Just a personal document for the sake of organizing my collection - considering how many books I have, it's useful in the event that I ever have to move it around and reshelve things.

I was wondering where this fell in terms of Sulu departing for the Excelsior. Good to know for my timelining!

I wouldn't say "no." I would say not for a little while at the least, considering that the standard rule of marketing is to tie in to what's in production. That said, I think there can be room on the schedule for more, especially in the event that any further content comes along that makes...

The T'Kumbra isn't the first - TOS's The Immunity Syndrome established that the USS Intrepid was crewed wholly by Vulcans as well. So there is some precedent. I do figure that some of it is a case of causing the least strain on the vessel's life support systems to have a crew primarily of the...

It's the fact that new Trek (Prodigy Season 2 aside) have been on Paramount Plus, a streaming platform that is probably considered smaller than any of the major names, especially considering it doesn't get bundled with anything in the way that the Disney owned platforms do, or how Roku streaming...

Like I said, it's really more of a minor peeve than any serious thing - I have an apostrophe in my own name, so I'm not saying it's just the appearance of apostrophes. It just sometimes feels like an overuse that just really stands out for me, particularly on the occasions I'm trying to sound...

Right, right - Kore and Wesley also appear in that arc, so I was getting everything kind of mixed in there.

The prelude to Lore War features a meeting of several entities - Trelaine, Gary Seven, the Metron, even Kevin Uxbridge and Rukiya. All of this brought together because of an Organian coexisting in the body of one of Sisko’s crew insisting on speaking to them.

I think with MJF, my big issue is how often he seems to rely on using apostrophes in alien names. Seems sometimes like every alien species or even individual has at least one apostrophe, if not more. Just kinda wish there was more variety in his way of saying “this is an alien.” But it’s really...

It would be neat to get some stories about some of the characters we have from Picard who were active during the Dominion War. Though maybe it'd be less of a "Tales of the Dominion War sequel" and more "Picard character backgrounds" kind of thing. Also, yeah, Shaxs would have had some tales to...

At this point, my two biggest wishes would be a Voyager book (considering this is the year of Voyager's 30th) and some kind of tie-in for the 31 movie, like a character prequel of some sort. Both would be reasonable for the timing of things, since, again, Voyager having a milestone and the 31...

It made sense for the original mission for the Enterprise and the Galaxy class, where they would be ships operating in the furthest regions of space, far from the heart of the Federation and the associated worlds, for upwards of twenty years, where even the children on board were at least...

Having grown up in the time that we averaged at least 24 novels per year, yeah, I do miss those days, especially now as more Trek is available than even then - I want more, even knowing the why we don't have them, and, y'know, there's also the issue of paying for them. My bank account is...
