Since we have threads for Discovery and Picard, I thought it might be a good idea to start one for Lower Decks as well. So far we know that Lower Decks will be canon, and it's set in 2380, so it's actually going to be smack dab in the middle of the Novelverse. It sounds like the show will probably focus on the characters more mundane day to day life on the ship, but there's still a pretty good chance that it could establish things about the state of the galaxy in 2380 that contradict what the novels did. There's also the chance of getting appearances by characters from the other shows that could potentially contradict where they were in the novles at the time.
I'm curious if we'll start to see characters in the Lower Decks uniforms on cover art for books set in 2380 or later now.
They also mentioned during the books panel that they are in "active discussions" about books for Lower Decks.
I have to admit, I do find the idea of full on comedy Trek books intriguing, it's not something we've gotten a lot of over the years. How Much for Just the Planet is the only novel I know of that was a full comedy, although other books, especially ones by Peter David, have had funny moments.
