New Frontier was to be expected. They already showed the new cover. I guess they want to finish the New Frontier series as soon as possible. They don't plan the New Frontier e-books only novels, so this one will be the last.
 
Well this is disappointing. I was really hoping/ expecting we’d be back on the every month plan relatively soon.

Absturz = Headlong Flight
Lichter im Dunkel = The Long Mirage? (I guess)
Kontrolle = Control
 
Literally, "Crash." An oddly indirect translation.



It means "Lights in the Dark." I'm not sure what it would be.

I'm not sure if the titles remain as they are right now. Maybe Cross Cult offers an explanation. I'm not on Facebook, but I can ask in the CC Forum.
 
I don't think, Cross Cult will change the names.
Many german book-titles are no exact translations of the original titles.
Often, Cross Cult tries just to translate the titles, or just change them a little bit. But there are many examples, where the german titles have nothing in common with the originals.

DS9 Avatar became "Offenbarung", which means "Revelations"
DS9 Ascendance became "Vorherrschaft" ("Supremacy")
TNG Before Dishonor became "Heldentod" (Hero's Death)
TNG Takedown - "Jagd" (Hunt)
The Fall: A Ceremony of Losses - "Auf verlorenem Posten" translates "Lost Post", but means "fighting a losing battle"
TOS "Mudd in your eye" ignores the Harry Mudd theme and is just "Der Friedensstifter" (The Peacemaker)
and many more.......

So I'm sure, these will be the final titles of the german translation.

CC has confirmed on their forum that the titles are final.
 
A brief interview I did recently for WVXU radio’s Around Cincinnati program has now gone live:

New Sci Fi Short Stories From Local Author Christopher Bennett

Among other subjects, it reveals a bit more information about Star Trek: The Original Series: The Captain’s Oath.

Good interview. Looking forward to Captain's Oath. Gotta say though that interviewer was over-mellow even for public radio. Did you have her sedated before you began the interview? :)
