Thought this might be interesting. This is a listing of the Star Trek publications from 1, 5, 10, 20, and 30 years ago this month. Quite the glut in the '90s!

Interesting. I like this idea.

It's interesting how the amount of material seems to rise and fall over time.

June 2010 didn't have a novel release? That seems unusual.

Great idea for a thread, dstyer.

June 2010 didn't have a novel release? That seems unusual.

The Abramsverse novels were slated to come out from June to September 2010. When they were cancelled, it left a hole in the schedule. Two Corps of Engineers trade collections and the MMPB reprint of the movie novelization were put on the schedule to fill the gap, but there apparently wasn't enough time to get a replacement slated for June.

Fascinating bit of history
