Yes, and it's been announced that Kirsten is writing the follow-up too.
Will Before Dishonors Ending Affect Voyager books? Spoilers!
- Thread starter BryanSorensen
- Start date
Kirsten, I suppose it's waaaay too soon to be asking questions like, "will Tuvok and Seven re-join the Voyager crew?" Personally, in the case of Tuvok at least, I kind of like him on Titan, so I hope not.
On the other side of the coin, there is also the question of "what will happen to the Doctor?" to consider. I like Kaz and would like him to stay on Voyager as CMO, but obviously there won't be room for both of them on board.

What Keith said. Much too soon.
I can't imagine any of the characters who are no longer on Voyager going to back to serve on it really. Janeway, if resurrected at some point, would presumably still be an admiral (who was starting to really enjoy the job too), Tuvok has it good on the Titan, and Seven and the Doctor both have good positions elsewhere in Starfleet.
The crew we had at the end of Spirit Walk has plenty of potential in it - we've barely seen them really. Between the effects of Tare's past ordeal, the Starfleet/Voyager crew animosity and the unenviable task of making that Huanni counselor a credible character, there's plenty for Kristen to work with without putting old crew back on the ship.
^ Maybe, but....
If one of the problems with Janeway as an admiral was her storylines would take place largely away from the ship itself, doesn't that suggest that most of the characters currently off doing their own thing will be gravitating back to Voyager as well? Otherwise, you have the same alleged problem as you had with Janeway: create story arcs away from the ship or relegate the character to the series' background.
Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

Actually the Doctor isn't in Starfleet. Last we saw, he was working for a civilian think tank. Seven was working for it as well as of 2378, but by 2380 she'd left it to take a teaching position at Starfleet Academy.
^ ah yes it was a civilian think-tank wasn't it? Think I've got it mixed up with the Doctor's role as Janeway's representative in the Shatnerverse.
Yar was NOT resurrected. An alternate timeline version of her was seen to be alive in that alternate timeline. Tasha Yar's corpse is still rotting.
If you consider a dead character's alternate timeline version to be a resurrection, then the Mirror universe and the Myriad Universes would increasing the resurrections to an absurd level.
And, neither Sito or Silva La Forge are technically dead. they are presumed deceased. Or were the crew of Voyager dead until "Message in a Bottle?"
Splitting hairs. Regardless of the in-universe excuse, in story terms the character was still brought back to life, the actress still brought back as a character who had been dead.
You're making my point for me. People here are claiming that Janeway isn't "really dead" because she was shown to be at least spiritually intact with Lady Q. My point is that even if a character's death is not certain, it's still possible that the character will never be brought back.
This just in: The Never Ending Sacrifice has been retitled They Saved Dukat's Brain
"Oh, why would you want to go back to being one of those squishy, limited little flesh-and-blood things, Kathy? More importantly, why would I want to waste the effort on some tawdry little miracle just so you can have a cup of coffee again? You'll just die again in a few decades anyway -- the blink of an eye to a Q. So why should I inconvenience myself with something so temporary and pointless?"
Okay, now I want Christopher to write the rest of the book that goes around this dialogue! (And I say that as somebody who honestly doesn't care whether Janeway is mostly dead or dead dead, as long as there are good books written.)
Except for Astall the counselor. The only potential she has is to be assimilated by the Borg so that the Borg can cry themselves to death...
No offense, but I have seen you argue about any number of topics, and your arguments can routinely be boiled down to "splitting hairs." You can say in story terms all you want, but Tasha Yar was, in the mainstream timeline of TNG, never resurrected. I can also say, in story terms, that she died and stayed dead at least through 2380.
Just because I'm arguing against one point you're making doesn't mean I'm arguing against anything else. I actually agree that leaving an option doesn't mean you'll take that option. And your examples are good, I just wanted to point out that they were not technically dead.
Not really comparable. If it wasn't for the Internet, would anyone know or even care about the aeroshuttle?
^^Again, so not the point. Geez, this is what I get for trying to make analogies on the Internet. The relevant part of both analogies is the fact that just because something exists doesn't mean it has to be used. Everything else is beside the point.

The worst character in all of TrekLit.
