Name a trilogy of Trek Books

[Garrovick]

Is there a trilogy of Audio Trek books, any series, aka Lord of the Rings style, where book one ends with book three? I know some of the two book sets, but not three. I want them for my iPod. They MUST be available as audio.

The audio caveat will limit your options, somewhat.

The first nine Shatner/Reeves-Stevens books are usually grouped into trilogies, and all are available as abridged audiobooks. In the case of the first three, each of the stories are stand-alone:

The Ashes of Eden
The Return
Avenger

Spectre
Dark Victory
Preserver

Captain's Peril
Captain's Blood
Captain's Glory

The Exodus trilogy by Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz also fit the bill.

A complete list of Trek audio books/productions can be found on Memory Beta.

Hope this helps.

Thanks...

Thought the trilogy would be "difficult". The center for the vison impaired has a lot of Trek, I can check them out for 90 days. I guess I'll pick some thing out from the link to purchase.

For aome reason Audible doesn't have the second Vulcan's Soul book available. They have book 1 abridged and book 3 unabridged but no book 2.

Yeah, the audiobook desire will make you unhappy. Almost all Star Trek audiobooks are abridged...

The just released adaptation of the new movie isn't.

Ummm No...

Vision problems make people unhappy. Being able to re-join in the Trek book experience makes people happy.

The Exodus trilogy by Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz also fit the bill.

The unabridged titles are by Recorded Books:

"Vulcan's Soul, Book 1: Exodus" by Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz, read by Richard Poe, Recorded Books, 2004, 510 min.
"Vulcan's Soul, Book 2: Exiles" by Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz, read by Richard Poe, Recorded Books, 2006, 630 min.
"Vulcan's Soul, Book 3: Epiphany" by Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz, read by Richard Poe, Recorded Books, 2007, 694 min.

Pocket Books did an abridged version of the first book only. Read by Boyd Gaines, 2004, 240 min. Abridged by George Truett.

But... IIRC, there are non-commercial unabridged ST audio novels, read by fan volunteers, available through some organisations that produce support materials for vision-impaired people.

Although not a trilogy, but certainly a "set of three", have you considered...?:

"Transformations: A Captain Sulu Adventure" by Dave Stern, performed by George Takei, Dana Ivey and Daniel Gerroll, 1994, 70 min.
"Cacophony: A Captain Sulu Adventure" by J.J. Molloy, performed by George Takei, Simon Jones, Maryann Plunkett, Lynne Thigpen and Lee Wilkof, 1994, 70 min.
"Envoy: A Captain Sulu Adventure" by L.A. Graf, performed by George Takei, Essene R., Jenifer Lewis, Nan Martin, Howard McGillan and Meredith Monk, 1995, 70 min.

These were short original-to-audio productions. The "3-D sound" works much better on CD than tape, and with headphones.
