I have been told by a fairly knowledgable source that anyone who
writes Star Trek novels has basically sold out and probably can't
sell non-Star Trek material.  Apparently Paramount holds all the
rights to Star Trek stories and pretty much has such writers at
their mercy.

However, other people seem to like these tales.  At the bookstore I
am overwhelmed by the sheer number of such books available.  In the
past I have read "Spock Must Die" and "Spock, Messiah", but I
believe these two are quite a bit older than the new crop.  What
about these newer books?  Does anyone out there have an unqualified
recommendation for one or two of them?
