You are going to love The Never-Ending Sacrifice by Una McCormack.
I read Strange New Worlds vol 2 and Seven of Nine by Christie Golden. I wish there had been more world building in the Seven book. I think the bits involving the alien species were more interesting than the parts involving the crew.
It was a good novel. It's a shame it was the only Sulu adventure until now.
Spear of Atlantis by Andy Mcdermott
As I wrote before, since two years I always read two books parallel: One by myself, one with my 12 years old son. Now, my 8 years old daughter also wants me to read Star Trek as a "bedtime story" for her.
So, I'm reading Voyager. At the moment #7, Children of the Storm.
With Julian, I'm reading the Corps of Engineers series. Cross Cult puts 4 ebooks together into one printed book. So last weekend, we finished book #2 (stories 5-8), ans now started book #3, with ebook-Story #9 "The Riddled Post".
And with Sarah, I started the Academy series three weeks ago. Also last weekend, we finished #2 "The Edge", and now have started #3 "The Gemini Agent".
I'm still almost 100 books behind (having read 54 of 146 books from Cross Cult), so reading 3 books might help me catch up a little bit.

The Prey trilogy is fantastic. Do your copies look like this?
If so, I am extremely jealous. It's almost worth learning German just not to have to look at some of the American covers.

German covers are almost always better then American covers.
Good luck learning German, by the look on those covers it's really difficult
Yep, that's how they look:The Prey trilogy is fantastic. Do your copies look like this?

Really fantastic. I'd buy a poster of that, I think.

The Insolence of Office: Slings and Arrows #3
Oh, that cover.
Looks like Lwaxana is having second thoughts about that visit to Golden Corral.
Surprisingly, I enjoyed this one. I say "surprisingly" because I don't usually care for Emotional Data or either of the Troi's. But this was good.
Two plotlines here.
1: Geordie is being browbeaten by an admiral to have his visor replaced by occular implants due to the events of Generations. This was an interesting story that filled in some gaps between the first two TNG flicks. Some good moments between Data and Geordie.
2: A follow up to DS9's "The Muse" featuring Lwaxana and Deanna Troi. I'm not a big fan of either character, but as with The Battle of Betazed, they both come off better in novel form than they did on tv. Truthfully, I had a hard time sympathizing with Lwaxana's plight, but it is resolved in an interesting way that utilizes one of my favorite characters in a brief cameo.
That Sleep of Death: Slings and Arrows #4
$7 for what amounts to a short story. And not a particularly memorable one at that.
P.S. My God, my spelling and punctuation are terrible. Sorry to inflict that on you folks. Hopefully, it still makes a bit of sense.

Wow, I've never seen those Klingon language covers before, they are gorgeous. I'm assuming the books are in German inside, rather than Klingon?The Prey trilogy is fantastic. Do your copies look like this?
If so, I am extremely jealous. It's almost worth learning German just not to have to look at some of the American covers.
FYI: There actually have been several Klingon-centric comics that have done special editions written entirely in Klingon.
The Klingon font can be found when you turn the books around. The font on the front cover is in German. Inside there story is in German of course.
(With the exception of a few Klingon words. But they are always translated for the non Klingon speaking readers...
). But I can see how the coverart is fantastic to look at.
Fire Arrow by Franklin Allen Leib. I'd read the paperback ages ago and it's about a hostage rescue scenario. I thought it was time for another go,
Just posted my review of A Time to Harvest by Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore, the fourth book in the A Time To series.
Currently reading Star Trek: Lost Scenes in preparation for next week's Literary Treks recording. Amazing book! What an undertaking. So much information in this, and tons of great tidbits that even crazy-obsessive Trekkies like me have never seen!
Have also started on A Time to Heal by David Mack.
