Star Trek novels have been a part of the Star Trek franchise since the beginning. According to Paramount Pictures, owners of the Star Trek franchise, no original novel is considered canon, a decision that has sparked debate amongst Trek book fans for years.

[edit] Numbered Pocket Books novels

The adaptation of Star Trek: The Motion Picture was actually published more than a year before the Bantam Books series of novels concluded, after which the Pocket Books series continued with book No. 2. A number of novels have been republished with modified titles to reflect their retroactive addition to an arc or a series, such as "The Yesterday Saga", "World's Apart", and "Rihannsu" which include novels that were originally published as standalones.

After Vol. 97, Pocket Books stopped numbering its Star Trek releases. Further issues are listed in the Unnumbered section, below.

[edit] The "Shatnerverse"

Beginning in 1996, William Shatner, the actor who played Captain Kirk, launched a series of novels, often referred to as the "Shatnerverse" novels. They work on the premise that Captain Kirk was brought back to life after the events of the movie Star Trek Generations and are not generally considered part of the continuity established by Pocket Books for their novels. The books are co-authored by Judith and Garfield Reeves-Stevens.

[edit] eBooks

In 2006, Pocket expanded its e-book program beyond the Corps of Engineers series to include other parts of the Trek universe, beginning with a 40th anniversary miniseries, Mere Anarchy:

[edit] Vanguard

Star Trek: Vanguard is a "spinoff" of the original series, set aboard a starbase and featuring a new mix of characters, e.g. instead of focusing on a first officer, engineer, and science officer, the main characters include an intelligence officer, a reporter, and a JAG officer.

[edit] The Next Generation

Pocket Books ceased numbering its TNG novels at this point; future volumes are listed in the Unnumbered section, below.

Starting in 2007, Pocket Books will be taking the story of Enterprise forward after the finale. The prologue and epilogue of Last Full Measure hints at the direction this story will take. According to co-author Andy Mangels, "Parts of [The Good That Men Do] take place before what we saw in ["These Are the Voyages..."], parts of it take place during, parts of it take place after, and parts of it take place... sometime else."[1]
