Janeway returning to Trek Lit? (Possible Spoilers)

[F. King Daniel]

Janeway is on the cover of Kirsten Beyer's forthcoming "The Eternal Tide"

Is she coming back? Or maybe only in flashbacks? Or will it turn out to be some alien posing as her? Or an evil duplicate? Whatever it is, it's exciting.

"Full Circle", "Unworthy" and "Children of the Storm" were all enjoyable reads. I'm sure this one will be, too.

Hope so.

As long as it's a good story it's immaterial.

It will, however, be interesting to see if the talented Ms Beyer can make me like Janeway more...

I thought she got a raw deal in the books. This would be nice if true.

Look at that face.

You KNOW what she's thinking.

"WHO is Peter David, and WHERE can I find him?"

ETA: Teacake... does this mean that now you have to have Kirsten's baby, if Janeway is well and truly back? (IIRC, someone offered last year in the book thread)

I suspect it's flashbacks or alien impersonation, since she argued so fervently last summer for the integrity of the storyline. (Keeping Janeway dead, since resurrecting Spock 20 odd years ago was a cheat.)

But she looms so large for flashbacks!!

Kirsten if you are reading this I have begun my folic acid supplements in preparation for your baby, should Janeway be actually returned.

I just hope we find out SOON if she is coming back for good so I can buy the books I've boycotted new and read them.

Me, too.

If nothing else, this shows that PB has finally figured out that putting Janeway's face on the cover sells books. I hope they also put her IN the whole relaunch for good, because that will sell even more books!

I wonder if we can get a poster of that cover? I love it!

Re: Janeway returning to Trek Lit?

I'm only going to love it if she comes back, LOL.

Re: Janeway returning to Trek Lit?

Maybe it's Phobe Janeway, and they just look really, really similar. And the long lost Starfleet officer returning is Kirk. And Peter David's ghostwriting it!

Re: Janeway returning to Trek Lit?

LOl, only this would bring me again to BBS. If it's not KJ back (and hopefully staying that way) then this would be the biggest, cruelest double-cross ever (but ST.com indicates she is back, at least at first) and I will get out my copy of Full Circle which is hidden at the bottom of a box of books and well, we'll see, it won't be pretty, bring her back!

The Internet would explode if they brought her back only to kill her again.

Yeah, well, from some TPTB's attitude re: KJ (that she was arrogant and "deserved" to die) I wouldn't put it past them, but am hoping somehow someone will be surprisingly merciful.

PS it could be a scenario that KJ has to stay a Q (if she is one instead of Lady Q's hanger-on) to save the galaxy, well I suppose that is better than dead, oh well, we'll see I guess.

I want my real coffee drinking Janeway, not Super Q Janeway!!

 

[NightOwl]

Re: Janeway returning to Trek Lit?

Ah, this is indeed good news. However, like Galekarens, I'm kind of cautious about how and in what form Janeway is going to return... considering it is indeed Janeway who returns. As long as it's not in black and white, pretty much anything is possible.

There's no coffee in the continuum? Damn...

 

[Galekarens]

Re: Janeway returning to Trek Lit?

Teacake, I 100% want KJ back as her former human self, oh yes, but I guess would rather have Q Janeway than no Janeway like it's now continuing, or worse (don't want to think of that) which would be the ultimate nightmare, yikes. Don't really want to be taking crumbs from Pocket Books re: our auburn queen, but I'm missing KJ present in Trek lit that much. Still, now I have a little hope, just crossing my fingers it's not in vain.

KJ as Q would blow out the universe because she would just be TOO awesome.
