I just finished “A Stitch in Time” and started looking for some other Trek books.

Ended up buying the Millennium trilogy and the Destiny Trilogy.

Was going to start reading Millennium, but when I read the preview/prologue for Destiny before I bought it, it started out with Sisko and Jadzia discovering the derelict remains of the NX-02 Columbia in the Gamma Quadrant, and I was hooked and had to buy/continue reading that one.

Which ones have you read? Any other recommendations?

Oh, also, I’m gonna slightly plug ebooks [dot] com since they have a huge selection of DRM-free books, and all of the Trek books I was looking at were available without DRM. Saves me the hassle of jailbreaking an Amazon purchase or buying it from Amazon and pirating a DRM-free version I can actually use.

    The lead-in novel to the first season of “Picard”, “The Last Best Hope”, is excellent.

    The “New Frontier” series is an interesting experiment in storytelling with a (mostly) original cast.

      I just started this one yesterday. Enjoying it so far. I’m only a few chapters in, but it definitely fills in a lot of blanks from PIC S1 like “Who is Raffi and why are she and Picard suddenly BFFs?” After reading her introduction, yeah, I’d want to be best friends with her, too.

      It puts so much of the first season into context that I felt was missing when I watched it.

      Thanks for the recomendation.

      And it’s only $1.99. Just bought it. Thanks!

      The “New Frontier” series

      I saw several of those but didn’t read the previews yet. I think a few of them made it to my wish list. Gonna have to see what the release/reading order is.
