They still write Star Trek novels? People still read them? I'm not sure what's worse. And of all the things to write novels about, Terok Nor?? So they are trying to fill in some obscure history about one of the least popular (and my personal favorite) Star Trek series? I'm sure these books will sell really well. And if you believe that, I have a bridge to sell ya.

I just worry that these are going to turn into glorified fan fiction, just like many other Trek novels. For example, how the Trill are related to the slug race from season 1 of TNG, or in Unity how the JemHaddar who disappeared from the wormhole conveniently reappeared. Those are minor since they appear in otherwise good books. Still, there are lots of things I wish hadn't happened, like the Borg mini story involving Vaughn's wife. There were better ways to tell that story. Still, the DS9 books have been far better than some of the horrific TNG entries. (I'm looking at you, Engines of Destiny)

Now this artwork I like. And the story, if written correctly, sounds like it may be a great series to read. And, it's about time they wrote 'this' story. Even I, Chaotic Asimov, believer in Audio-books, will set aside time to read them...the only thing? It's going to take too long for them all to get out...why not just release all three of them at the same time????
