January Star Trek eBooks Sale: The Fall and Seekers

Big news, Star Trek book fans! Simon & Schuster has nine Trek novel eBooks on sale through January 31, 2019.

First, the five-book miniseries The Fall (about the rise and fall of a shit-talking would-be Federation president with a shady history—I know, not at all topical). This miniseries includes novels written by me, James Swallow, Una McCormack, Dayton Ward, and David R. George III.

And if that’s not enough, you can get the complete four-book Star Trek Seekers series by me, Dayton & Kevin Dilmore, also for just $0.99 each! That’s a hell of a lot of adventure for less than four bucks, kids.

But act fast, kids — this sale ends January 31!

Long Shot beats the odds! (#SFWApro)

I’m happy to report that my latest scribblings in the Star Trek universe have hit the charts again. Star Trek: Seekers #3, Long Shot landed at #1 on the Locus Magazine list of media-related bestsellers for November 2015.

I’m also pleased to share space on that list with dear friend and fellow Star Trek scribe Kirsten Beyer, whose new Voyager novel Atonement landed at #4. Nice job, Kirsten!

For those keeping score at home, Long Shot marks my twenty-first appearance on the Locus bestseller list since December 2004, and my fifth title to debut at #1.

Running my mouth on The G&T Show

seekers3_largeA few days ago I was persuaded to once again call into and be interviewed by the folks at The G&T Show. This time my interrogators were hosts Nick Minecci and Michael Madeiros.

We talked about a wide range of topics, including the ups and downs of the writing life, my recently published works (Star Trek: Seekers #3 – Long Shot and 24: Rogue), and my upcoming projects (book two of the Star Trek: Legacies trilogy and Dark Arts, my own historical fantasy trilogy for Tor Books).

Listen to the entire interview here.

Yak Alert! Seekers on Literary Treks

Never one to refuse an invitation to flap my trap, I’m back on a yak attack talking Star Trek: Seekers and more with Matt and Dan from Literary Treks on Trek.fm!

We cover a lot of details about the series’ third book, Long Shot, and we even dig into some more personal aspects of the creative process, and talk about how much of myself I invest into my characters, and how I do so. As is our wont, we also had a few good laughs in the process.

I also teased a few details about my upcoming original series of novels for Tor Books,  click through and give it a listen.

Rob Caswell on creating Star Trek book covers

Ever wondered what really goes into creating eye-catching cover art for Star Trek novels? Rob Caswell, the digital illustrator whose work inspired the creation of the new Star Trek: Seekers literary series, takes you behind the scenes into his world, in “What Goes Into Star Trek Novel Cover Art?,” his guest blog post over on StarTrek.com, a follow-up to its debut last Saturday of the covers and synopses for the next two Star Trek: Seekers novels.

He also offers up some insights into how he got professionally entangled with the likes of Dayton Ward, Kevin Dilmore, and yours truly, in addition to the usual rigmarole about his creative process.

Enough hard sell. Go read it, already, and get a glimpse of the mind that brings you awesome covers like this one for Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore’s Star Trek: Seekers #4 – All That’s Left —
