We talked for so long, I did not get to ask that one, I apologize.

Great interview with Margaret Clark and I'm really excited about the upcoming Star trek books coming out you talked about on your podcast.

So much great stuff in here. More attention paid to ebooks, some deliberate thought going into the use of Data, some more standalone stories post-Destiny...

and, oh yeah, this:

Also discussed was the possibility of new Star Trek audiobooks. Apparently it is something the publishers are talking about right now, and have asked for suggestions as to which books could get the audio-treatment. Clark is keen on getting Andrew Robinson to read his Garak novel, A Stitch in Time.

I may or may not have passed out after reading that tease...

How great is that? I remember being amongst many who asked back on the psiphi boards years ago.

Indeed! When we had Andrew Robinson at an Australian convention and he read one of his "letters to Bashir". I asked from the audience if he'd considered pitching to Pocket Books. He met a Pocket editor at a convention a few months later, IIRC.

Oh sweet Prophets, yes please! Why can't this happen right now?!

Yes! There is much more we can talk to her about!

I am with you, this is going to be an epic Treklit year!

I am also hoping to see a resurgence in audiobooks, I have some friends on Twitter that do not get to enjoy Treklit because of visual impairment. I hope Pocket will remember them when making their decision about audiobooks.

Hoping to get a novelverse version of the supernova/Romulus/Spock story for the 50th.

If only Andrew Robinson could read A Stitch in Time, The Lotus Flower, The Never-Ending Sacrifice and The Crimson Shadow! That would be wonderful (if costly).

And Hollow Men, while we're at it. Though that book was so well written you could almost hear him saying those lines anyway.

Although Avery Brooks has somewhat left Trek behind, that would be more suitably a two-man job - you can imagine the chapters switching between each actor as if from their points of view (hence why i excluded it, and it perhaps being the least important of that range of Garak books?).

EDIT: Ok scratch the 'left Trek behind' - there is still a lot of love in Brooks for Sisko. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGo8RRWHOUQ

I think I'd rather have The Lotus Flower read by Colm Meaney. I've always thought of it as more of a O'Brien story, with Garak in a supporting role.

Good point, although I think it is also primarily a Keiko story? It would be nice for Rosalind Chao to have been able to have had one well-written, dramatically interesting story in her Trek career (beyond the Assignment)!

Rosalind Chao would work too.
