The State of Star Trek Literature

[Ralphis]

I can't really answer all of this because most of the stuff I've been reading in non-Trek sci-fi, but I just wanted to say that Troublesome Minds was amazing! First (and most recent) Trek book I've read in a long time. And I'll resume reading Trek, but I have a few non-Trek titles I need to work my way through.

I agree, the flashpoint being the current Romulan split. That is a tinderbox waiting for a novel. Not the one in the current lineup, but one where the two enter into all-out warfare over who speaks for the Romulan people. Apologies to Dayton Ward, but I don't think the series is there yet.

Why are you apologizing to me?

Thanks to the latest movie, they won't have to co-exist for long

Actually, that just makes the situation even more interesting to me.

You are most kind, and I thank you. I'm very glad you enjoyed it.

David R. George. For me making predictions about his Typhon Pact Romulan novel.

Grrr. Another point shot right to hell.

Starfleet cannot make a deal with the Klingons/Romulans as it might overwhelm its resources and exploit said 'friendship' to its breaking point. It cannot stand divided. The fall of the federation is inevitable. Torn apart by its own ideals. There has to be something more important that unifies the races out there than merely that. But we may find that the more we push the more we are pushed back.

The Federation isn't going anywhere, and the Klingons have been an ally for years. The Imperial Romulan State, Klingons, and Federation will work together because it's in their own best interests.

David R. George isn't writing a Typhon Pact novel - but I hear his grandson, David R. George III, just might be
