    The November offer also includes this no-brainer pickup: Twist of Faith for $0.99. This omnibus includes the Avatar duology, Abyss, Demons of Air and Darkness, and Horn and Ivory (the latter two being the DS9 Gateways stories).

    Just checking - for clarification - but other than the Voyager novels the only other book on the above list, from the post-Nemesis timeline is Deep Space Nine: Rules of Accusation.

    Is that correct?

    Yes, but The Never-Ending Sacrifice comes close (2378). It reaches post-DS9, and it is well worth reading if you are a fan of that show.

    Thank you for that. I am a DS9 fan, however my goal is to read the Post-Nemesis series. So I'm trying to snag all the books.

    Strangely here in the UK Eugenics War Part 2 isn't showing up in the sale, but everything else seems to be.

    Since they are doing a good job of putting the Beyer Voyager books on sale in order in successive months, let me put my prediction/hope for next month:

    Architects of Infinity/To Lose the Earth to finish the cycle
    To Reign in Hell: The Exile of Khan Noonien Singh
    These Haunted Seas
    A Flag Full of Stars
    A couple random TOS books
    Mosaic (for the Prodigy crowd)
    The first two A Time To... novels

    Note: None of those listed are on my wish list right now (owned or not interested enough to own), but I think they would continue a lot of series and provide a good variety. If I was going to ask for something, it would be the String Theory trilogy.

    I don't know if anyone is interested in this, but the fitness book Body by Starfleet: A Fitness Guide is on sale for $2.99 at the major Canadian ebook retailers.

    And not Star Trek, but perhaps Star Trek-adjacent: Redshirts by John Scalzi is also on sale for $2.99.

    The Body by Starfleet book is also 99p on UK Amazon! I'm tempted, but it seems like the kind of thing that's much more fun in a physical book.

    There's a sale going on at Simon and Schuster that I thought I'd inform people off. It occurred to me that this might be a good thread to post when books are on sale.

    https://www.simonandschuster.com/p/star-trek-ebook-deals

    Star Trek: Acts of Contribution is on sale for 99c

    Star Trek: The Captain's Oath is on sale for 99c

    Star Trek: How much for just the Planet? for 99c

    Star Trek: The Final Reflection for 99c

    Star Trek: The Neverending Sacrifice for 99c

    Star Trek: The Lost Years for 99c

    Star Trek: Twist of Fate for 99c

    Star Trek: A Pocket Full of Lies for 99c

    I especially enjoyed The Captain's Oath by Christopher Bennett and think it's my favorite book by him aside from Ex Machina. How Much For Just the Planet was also a big influence on my own writing.

    Hi @Charles Phipps , since we already have a long-running ebook deals thread, I’m going to move this into that one.

    Heads-up for those who bought Twist of Faith in the previous sale or at any time:

    That omnibus already includes the two Avatar books, so you don't need to buy them again this month, even at this outstanding discount.

    I wholeheartedly endorse purchases of Avatar, Revenant, The Antares Maelstrom, and The Weight of Worlds.

    Yes, I was thinking it was rather odd they put the Avatar books on sale the month after Twist of Faith!
