‘Planet X’ TNG crossover and more! Last week for July Star Trek ebook deals.

If you’re not familiar, every month the main publisher of Trek fiction, Simon & Schuster puts out an offering of more than a half dozen ebooks for $ 0.99 in Canada and the US and at a similar low price in some other countries.

This month is a bit of a blast back to the late Berman era with a collection of DS9 Dominion War books, a Voyager Seven of Nine story and a few others.

The standout of the month however is the Star Trek TNG - X-Men crossover ‘Planet X’.

While my preference is for physical books, Simon & Schuster’s ebook deals got me invested in the high quality Trek Relaunch continuity of Treklit as well as helped fill in my collection of out-of-print standalone classics.

Can highly recommend taking a risk on adding ebook specials at low cost to your ebook summer reading.

Those “Dominion War” 2-parters are odd - the TNG books are an original story, but the DS9 ones are adaptations of “Call to Arms” and “Sacrifice of Angels”.

There were a number of ‘event episode’ adaptations around that time, including the ‘Day of Honor’ ones for Voyager.

It does seem to be a specific niche of Treklit. I always saw it as a bit of a marketing stunt to draw in established fang to become new readers of the tie-in books.

I generally prefer original stories, and welcomed the Relaunch novelverse taking legacy characters and new ones forward.
