books set between TVH and TFF or after TFF?

I came across this one while looking through the paperback section at my school:

*The Fearful Summons by Denny Martin Flinn....which takes place after TUC.
 
My Crucible trilogy has scenes set all over the timeframe of the original series, from prior to the first season to after Generations, including during and after each of the TOS films. This is particularly true of the McCoy volume, Provenance of Shadows.
 
@ all, thx for your comments!

:lol: I just rewatched "City..." yesterday to prepare myself for a reread of "Provenance...".

And, David, I agree with ClayinCA that it's a shame that the HC-omnibus got cancelled... I'd have loved to read the new material. *sighs

I would put it back where you found it.

Agreed. That book is one of the biggest wastes of paper ever.

All three of these books are fantastic, and collectively form one of the best pieces of Trek literature yet published. I think it's a crying shame that the hardback compilation scheduled for this year has been abandoned, as it would have made a great tie-in for the new film (not to mention that I just selfishly wanted a nice hardback version :p).

David, I know you were working on some new material for the hardcover - is there any chance that any of it will ever see the light of day, anywhere?
 
^ It's possible, Clay, but it's unclear just when or where. I, of course, would love to see the hardcover collection resurface at some point, but that seems like a long shot at the moment.

By the way, I wasn't just working on new material. I completed a new preface ("Talismans and Spells") and five new short stories. I wrote two Guardian of Forever tales called "The Potentials of Emptiness" and "Confluence, Enduring," as well as new follow-up stories for each of McCoy, Spock, and Kirk; these were entitled "The Delicate Currents of the Past," "The Weight of Too Few Years," and "Into the Void," respectively). At least, I finished first (and, I believe, second) drafts of each. Oh, well.

And thanks for the kind words about my work.

David, all of those things sound absolutely fascinating (no in-joke intended). I really hope this material sees the light of day at some point, and I'm sure I'm by no means alone when I say I would looooove to read them. Hopefully the hardcover will find its way back onto the schedule someday.
