Voyager Relaunch FAQ
Before this runs off the first page I'll create the Voyager Relaunch portion of the FAQ.
Q. What books and in what order are the Voyager Relaunch novels?
A.
Homecoming by Christie Golden
Farther Shore by Christie Golden
Spirit Walk "Old Wounds" by Christie Golden
Spirit Walk "Enemy of My Enemy" by Christie Golden
Tales from the Captain's Table: Chakotay: "Seduced" (Short Story) by Christie Golden
Q. Are the String Theory novels apart of the Relaunch?
A. No. They are set during the series between seasons 4 and 5.
Q. When is the next Voyager Relaunch novel coming? Is this series dead?
A. The series is not dead, just on hold. Officially the only thing we know of is that the future of Voyager will be directly affected after the events of the upcoming
Destiny trilogy by David Mack (End of year 2008). On the sole author of the series'
website she said on 7/29/2006
Many of you have written asking to see more of the VOYAGER novels. Right now I think those are going to be pushed to the back burner—Pocket Books, who publishes the Trek novels, also publishes the Warcraft and Starcraft novels, so they know I’m (rather happily) tied up for the next while. I do hope to return to them at some point, but it won’t be for at least another year.
Obviously it's been more than a year since that, one can only assume she's still rather busy with that and other original works.
Q. Many people here seem to dislike the Voyager relaunch how on Earth could it possibly be selling well?
A. A few rather vocal people on the internet do not represent the entirety of the readership of the Trek literature. These books went into several reprintings and are doing quite well regardless of what you may have read elsewhere.
Q. Why is Christie Golden the only author for this series? We demand other authors! DS9/Vanguard/Titan et al. all have other authors.. blah blah blah
A. Christie's past Voyager books (pre-relaunch) apparently did quite well as well. And the creative decision to use her as the only author was of the editor of the series at the time (John Ordover). The editor is different now and that editor (as far as we know) doesn't plan to make changes.
Q. Can we see the Voyager characters in any other novels after they have returned home?
A. Yes. Tuvok appears in Titan. Janeway appears in several (almost all) of the TNG novels from the A Time To Series to the post-Nemesis TNG novels. Several characters will appear in the aforementioned
Destiny trilogy. And Mirror and Alternate universe versions of the characters can be seen in the various Myriad Universe and Mirror Universe novels/Anthologies.
And since this isn't the 1st post. here are a couple of search words for those who may actually read the faq and want to do a CTRL+F: VOY-R VGR-R Voyager Re-Launch
