My problem is I can't FIND the damn novels, they are never in stores.
DS9 Relaunch novels?

I never understand threads like these. Either you care about the story or you don't. This "I care, but not enough to experience it as it was meant to be experienced" gibberish never made any sense, any of the dozen times I've seen it.
You can ask the store to order them for you. If they're actually out of print, you may have some trouble.

Are you looking for the individual books or the two ominbuses?
You don't understand that there are varying amounts of caring? Let's say that I care very much about Series A, so I want to get the next book in that series right away and read it straight through. But maybe the Series B books aren't as interesting to me, so I may not pick up a Series B book unless I happen to be all caught up on Series A. In the mean time, I may try to find out the generalities of what's happening in Series B enough to sate my mild curiosity.
It makes perfect sense to me, since that is the case for me, with Series A = Star Trek and Series B = Star Wars.

See, I call that "spoilers". If I care about a series at all, I want to experience it in full, spoiler-free. The degree of caring merely determines how soon that happens. If I fall behind on a series by a month or a year or a decade, that really doesn't matter; I'll either get to it eventually, or I stop caring.
Think of it in TV terms. At one time it might have made sense to say, "I missed the latest episode, could you tell me what happened so I'm not confused next week?" But in this day and age, that's usually not necessary; there's TIVO and iTunes and DVDs and whatnot. You can catch up whenever you like, and do it in order. You can even catch up on series that aired years ago if you like.
You don't say, "I liked seasons 1 and 2 but I couldn't find season 3 at the store right now, so I just got season 4. Could you tell me what happened in season 3?" Not for a show with any significant degree of serialization, anyway....
