Great…by focusing on books based on the ‘revamp’ of classic Trek (which is a put-down to REAL trekkers/trekkies), series like Vanguard, IKS Gorken, Enterprise, and the relaunched ST:TNG, ST:DS9 are left in the dark. Disgusting.

I am not a big fan of “Star Trek” but I did watch the remake film they did and I have to say it was better than expected and if they do get round to making more and releasing it on DVD ill probably give it a watch.

Good. I knew it was way too soon to develop literary sequels to a movie that will almost undoubtedly go in a whole different direction when its released and thus create massive inconsistencies with these novels right out of the gate. From a literary standpoint, in fact, I’d much rather see the “J.J.-verse” disregarded entirely. The movie was great fun, sure, but I’m a lot less interested in following TWO original Trek timelines at once than other people might think they are. J.J. has re-envisioned Trek for modern cinematic audiences, and that’s fine because he’s remained true to the mythology of the original series, but in the end the only big difference will be the destruction of Vulcan. I’m fine with a few more movies being made from this premise, but I don’t want two entire series of original Trek novels, one taking place in the original timeline and one in the altered timeline. That just seems tedious and pointless.

Hmm, usually I’d ignore these as I’m not a super-trek fan, but since it was a revamp, it might be fun to check these out whenever they release.
