I had a number of the older STNG books some years back (paperbacks) I wish I had kept them now. one that still sticks in my mind is one of the Titan mass market ones called "Masks" and is still available on amazon but not as an ebook that I am aware of.

I read Star Trek: Voyager: Homecoming & The Farther Shore this week. They were a pretty enjoyable way to return to the world of Star Trek! I have to say though, they were incredibly quick reads-like a little snack between meals. I read each of them in an evening.

Already put them on hold in paperback form at my library (I am being cheap about spending 7.99-8.99 on books I can read in an evening)! Man this is bringing back memories of my early teens. I was really into reading these Star Trek books at that point. I remember I would get my mom to buy whatever the latest one was for me at my local K-mart every month. |

After reading both God Emperor and Heretics of Dune (back to back) I am rather thankful for the Trek novel 'Homecoming' by Christie Golden.
It's like giving my brain a bit of a holiday. |

Second Diane Duane's books --esp. _The Romulan Way_ (wish they'd used that background information for the movies).
Another notably good one is _Immortal Coil_ which is about Data. |

I strongly agree about "Immortal Coil." Very good read that links many events in Star Trek together.

I used to have over 200 trek books in my physical library, however now that they are releasing in eBook I've replaced them. I love me some trek lit.
