I think you should be fine to read it, especially if you're a DS9 fan. *nods*
Is the Wounds trade being delayed?

Consider it enlightened self-interest, but you'll find a locked-room murder mystery in the very first story.
Enlightened self-interest. I've GOT to remember that one...
Cool. I've actually been wondering if there were any good Star Trek murder mysteries, and now I know there's at least one.

I've been watching a ton of the CSIs, Law & Orders, Criminal Minds, Cold Case, ect. while reading Trek, and it got me wondering if those two genres had been combined in more than just a couple episodes.
mine's been dispatched. hopefully i should get it wednesday or thursday.
Of course, the real reason to read Wounds is so you'll be up to speed when Out of the Cocoon is released next year.

Oh, yeah I forgot about that one. It's got the lawyer from "Court Matial" right?
Edit: Ok, it is. Although that sounds more like a Matlock type thing, while I was looking for something more along the lines of CSI or Law & Order. I do appreciate the recommendation though, so thanks.
The initial pitch for Malefictorum was something along the lines of CSI Star Trek.
I watched the first three seasons of CSI on DVD (that was all that existed at the time) back to back before I started that story to get a feel for the CSI structure. Didn't follow it to the letter, of course, but if you're looking for a Trek forensics/police procedural, you definitely need to give that story a try, even if I do say so myself.
Mine too, finally!!!
Wait'll you get a load of the tribble's angry cousin.
^ Thats a common misconception, Mr. Ward. He's actually a real pussy cat...
Speaking of the DS9 connection, how many other SCE volumes are connected, at least somewhat, to DS9? I know that at least one takes place between... say Avatar 2 and Abyss, but anything between that and... maybe before the end Olympus Descending? I'm almost done Wounds, and don't want to go into withdrawal... Or reach a point where I have nothing to read and end up studying or something...

and reprinted in dead-tree form in Star Trek: S.C.E. Book 2: Miracle Workers in 2002, takes place between Avatar Book 2 and Section 31: Abyss, detailing Nog's engineering of the delivery of Empok Nor to the B'hava'el system, with the help of the da Vinci crew.Caveat Emptor by Ian Edginton & Mike Collins (reprinted in Star Trek: S.C.E. Book 4: No Surrender in 2003) takes place on Ferenginar, and has a cameo by Grand Nagus Rom. War Stories by self (reprinted in 2004's Star Trek: S.C.E. Book 6: Wildfire) has four separate Dominion War stories, with appearances by some familiar folk here and there. Home Fires by Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore has a guest appearance by a young Lieutenant William Ross in an extended flashback (reprinted in 2005's Star Trek: S.C.E. Book 7: Breakdowns). Buying Time by Robert Greenberger features an appearance by Brunt, FCA (reprinted in 2006's Star Trek: Corps of Engineers: Aftermath) -- and that same book has a Dominion War flashback as part of Aaron Rosenberg's Collective Hindsight.
The stories in Wounds are the only ones that take place in the gap between the two WoDS93 tales.
Other crossovers of any kind are in eBook form only for the nonce, and they're all minor in any case -- a couple of Dominion War stories in the What's Past miniseries of flashbacks and an appearance by Bashir in Ghost by Ilsa J. Bick.
Thanks!! War Stories (depending on the Jemmie body count... lol!) and Cold Fusion especially peak my interest... I shall have to go on a quest...
Then again, Dominion conflict in flashbacks is probably preferable to Dominion conflicts in present of flash-forwards, now that I think of it...

Marie, do you like Vaughn? Because there have been a few books that feature Vaughn before he was on DS9. The two that I know best The Lost Era books, Serpents Among the Ruins, which follows the Enterprise-B crew and tells the story of the Tomed Incident, and The Art of the Impossible, which tells the story of the Betreka Nebula Incident. This ones kind of a stretch, but his partner and Prynn namesake, T'Prynn is also a main character in the Vanguard books.
