Titan and The Fall news

At least there should be a pretty cover with...
The new DS9 station on it.
...most likely on DRG3's opening chapter to "The Fall"
 
Wow, a five book DS9 set for the 20th & now this. :drool:

I think you've missed an update or two. The 5-book set is The Fall, a multi-series crossover that begins with a single DS9 book. When that first book was announced as the start of a 5-book series, there were a couple of people who speculated that the whole 5-book series might be DS9, but those speculations were quickly proven wrong by later updates.

Yah I did miss the updates, I thought this was a second multi-book series & that DS9 had it's own. That's what I get for taking most of Thanksgiving off:). Should be a fun ride, I'm excited for TrekLit in 2013.
 
Maybe back when Pocket released two books per month, there would've been time for two 5-book events in a single year, but not anymore.
 
Not a huge fan of Titan, I would've definitely skipped its installment in The Fall if Micheal Martin had been writing it. Swallow can be hit or miss, but I at least feel like I'll get something in readable shape for eight bucks.
 
^It's all gonna be about that reality Q told us about in The Eternal Tide where Janeway slips in the shower and dies.
 
Not to mention that the Voyager novels are still only up to the fall of 2381, and the main Alpha-Quadrant 24th-century continuity is up to 2384.

Just hope Voyager doesn't end up doing a time jump like DS9 did just so it can catch back up with the other 24th century books!
 
Actually, from where the last book left off, a time jump for Voyager wouldn't be a *terrible* thing. At least, it wouldn't be as mind-numbingly frustrating as it was for DS9.

Agreed. Given the way things ended in The Eternal Tide, a small jump forward in time wouldn't be a huge deal. I wouldn't want several years to pass between novels, but a few months certainly would not disrupt the story. There aren't any dramatic cliffhangers or on-going plot threads that would be severely disrupted by a small jump forward.
 
A months long jump would actually seem to make sense. Several years ahead the "Litverse present" would probably just serve to disrupt the story.
