Here's a list of the CoE series. Lengthwise, most of them are technically novellas if you judge by word count.

A few notes first.

Volume 1 (#1-#66) is titled Star Trek: Starfleet Corps of Engineers or just SCE. Volume 2 (#1-#8) is Star Trek: Corps of Engineers or CoE. Pretty straightforward, right? Things can get confusing, however, when you start to look at the omnibus reprint editions. The reprint collections were the first time the series was available in paper form, but the collections were released in ebook form also. So it is actually cheaper to buy the ebook versions of the omnibus titles.

The confusion comes about because while the first seven collections are titled Star Trek :SCE, books 8, 9, and 10 are titled Star Trek: CoE although they are still collecting installments of Vol.1 - SCE. In the paper editions, the title change accompanied a switch from mass market to trade paperback size, but that obviously doesn't apply to ebooks.

The series is set in the late 24th century (beginning about the time Deep Space Nine - the television show - ends), although there are some flashback stories contemporary with the original series. You can read them independently of the other fiction lines for the most part, although they are part of a much larger tapestry and you will see connections if you read some of the other stuff.

As far as I know, only two installments tie directly into other book lines. #10 is an epilogue to a mini-series called Gateways, and #64 is a prequel to the Vanguard series.

One last thing, DO NOT even look at the cover of omnibus #7 Breakdowns until you get ready to read it unless you want a major spoiler!
