E book exclusive Trek books coming soon?

I found pre orders available at Amazon for these books:
ST:TNG Home Again
ST:TOS Shadow of the Machine
ST:TOS The More things Change
Star Trek:Titan Absent Enemies

but, they're only available to pre order, at this time, as ebooks.
Are these ebook exclusives, or are the print versions just not up as ebooks yet.
It's a curious thing. Even though I buy more and more of my books as ebooks, I am resistant to not getting my Trek books in print. I have such a large collection of Trek books (but far from complete) that I prefer to continue to get them in print, shelf space be damned. I will buy Trek ebook exclusives though, so I just want to know what my options are before buying.
Thanks for any help!
 
Home Again should be a regular PB novel, the others will be eBook exclusive novellas.

Add Seasons of Light and Darkness, a TOS novella written by Michael A. Martin to that list which is scheduled for April. And there will be another eBook exclusive coming in 2014 from Paula M. Block and Terry Erdmann, which most likely will be DS9.
 
Thanks for the info. I went ahead and put them on my wish list for now. I know at least I'll have to get the Titan novella.
I also found the ST:TNG novella The Stuff of Dreams which I had missed.
Any info on other ebook only Trek books I may have missed. Even the SCE got print collections, but apparently there's some stuff out there I missed.
 
Here's a list that was posted in a thread in August:


Plus the upcoming releases:

February 2014: Titan: Absent Enemies * John Jackson Miller

April 2014: TOS: Seasons of Light and Darkness * Michael A. Martin

July 2014: TOS: The More Things Change * Scott Pearson

October 2014: TOS: Shadow of the Machine * Scott Harrison

tba: tba * Paula M. Block and Terry J. Erdmann.
 
Thanks! That is really helpful. I got the Vanguard and Typhon Pact ebooks (and earlier today got Stuff of Dreams). Went ahead and pre ordered the Titan novella, since there's no way I'm not getting a Titan book :)
I held off on the Slings and Arrows series for now. I'm put off by the pricing. They're nearly the price of a full sized book and less than a hundred pages each. I may break down and get the first one, especially since it features Hawk.
 
Have you read the Vanguard series yet? I haven't read it yet to know for how reliant it is on the other books, but In Tempests Wake is kind of an epilogue to the series.
 
I've read the first three or so Vanguard books. I loved them, but I'm way behind on the series. Thanks for the info on In Tempests Wake, I'll be sure to save that one for after the Vanguard series.
I know that Vanguard is getting a spin off series, so I'm glad the series will continue in that way.
