Myrta Shirazi Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 I discovered Trek novels long ago and far away, and I've been somehow addicted to them for quite a few years (mostly TOS but also DS9), then I went into a hiatus and sort of lost touch with the published Trek universe.I was wondering which novels (if any) would you suggest as the most useful for relatively new players on SB 118 1
Anen Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Startrek.com just released a list of the greatest Star Trek novels for a new reader, I'll dig it up...Here!http://www.startrek.com/article/ten-for-ward-ten-star-trek-novels-for-the-new-star-trek-novel-reader Edited February 15, 2015 by Zayar
Ayiana Sevo Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 Every book starting with DS9: A Stitch in Time are considered to be in the same continuity, kind of like Star Wars' Expanded Universe, and will often build on or refer to events in a previous novel by a different author.http://memory-beta.wikia.com/wiki/Relaunchhttp://memory-beta.wikia.com/wiki/Star_Trek_relaunch_novel_timelineHowever, in my opinion, some of the best books to read are definitely the Star Trek: Titan novels, Section 31 novels, the Destiny Trilogy, the and the Full Circle series. Articles of the Federation gives a good inside view of the politics of the Federation. Other novels I haven't read yet but I hear are good is the Typhon Pact series. 3
Theo Whittaker Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 I can't recommend Una McCormack's The Crimson Shadow enough. It's a beautifully written, film noir-style look at Cardassian society. 1
T'Mihn Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 I have liked the Diana Duane novels on the Romulans,and Vulcans' cultures. A recent triology called Vulcan Soul. Hey have a look backwards into the two cultures mutual history and tje start Of their exodus from Vulcan. , Also A.C.Crispin novels that featured Spock, and Sarek. Very well done and a look into the enigma that are Romulans and Vulcans 3
Zinna Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Star Trek: Titan novels are my favorite and I highly recommend. 2
+ Anora Manar Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 I've really enjoyed the Relaunch novels. The Destiny/Typhon Pact/The Fall ones are particularly nifty. My favorite three books though have been Rising Son, A Stitch In Time, and Articles of the Federation.
Theo Whittaker Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Articles of the Federation is a wonderful read.
