Hey, look what's up for pre-order over at Amazon: Star Trek: Enterprise: The Romulan War Though the release date isn't until 20 October now... It's listed as 384 pages long... Seems kind of short for the whole Romulan War, but then, they've never actually said that they're going to start and finish the war in this book, either. |

I read I think it was trek bbs had a report when they recently went to a convention and where the writers and editor Margaret Clark mentioned that the Romulan war books were going to be continued in more than one book. I think they mentioned it was going to be 3 books.That's just the rumor right now.

T'Pol is wearing a Starfleet uniform and it looks like Shran maybe wearing a Starfleet unifom too. link http://trekweb.com/articles/2009/04/12/Covers-and-Synopsis-for-Upcoming-Star-Trek-Novels-Spoilers.shtml

Ugh. They based T'Pol's appearance on season 1/2. Despite the fact that they stated point-blank in TGTMD that she was wearing a Starfleet uniform from now on. :rolleyesrequest: Given that I haven't bothered reading Kobayashi Maru and don't really have plans to do so because of how uninterested I am in the direction they've taken with the profic, its not likely that I'm gonna pick this book up so I'll leave it to those of you who are to talk about this. |

well Rigil you don't need to read it. MANY of the ideas seem to come directly from the Endeavour series....! Similar with the Columbia stuff in the Destiny series... I actually get confused between Rigil's stuff and the published trek. So to keep it easier... I mainly read Rigil's. |

Gawd ... what the hell is wrong with T'Pol's head in that picture? It's all distorted and crap. :yuck: |

You know, it's pretty bad when they can get T'Pau looking like she did from the Vulcan arc and yet miss when it comes to T'Pol, considering there are numerous pictures of her from all four seasons out there... |

That picture of T'Pol season 1 is a poor choice for the cover. They should've used a picture of T'Pol in a Starfleet uniform from season 3 Twilight or Hatchery. |

T-Pol's Champion

As was asked by one poster on Trek TBBS, Where is Trip? Why is he missing off the cover? He killed? |

Of course he's not dead. They establish that he survives long after the war in the opening and closing chapters of Last Full Measure, both of which are set in the early 2200s. I'm just ... that picture of T'Pol is just so unbelievably bad that it's hard to get past it. Blech. |

It's pretty obvious that all they did was take her head from the S1 publicity shot and tried adding her hair from a S3 publicity shot, so the angles aren't matching up. |

I just checked out the list for next years books it looks like there's not going to be a new Enterprise novel to followup The Romulan war next year until 2011 0r 2012. The have way too many post TNG post nemesis books. I have'nt liked at all too post apocayptic borg aftermath stories in the books too dark and depressing. :yuck: :thumbdown: :no: :tsktsk: They also have a bunch of TOS novels that are stand alone and 4 books based on the reboot trek movie coming out too.

Well, it's less than a week until this book comes out. Hopefully Amazon ships my order quickly, so I can get this book read before the Wheel of Time novel I ordered (which comes out the following week) arrives... |

I hope that those of you who read it aren't disappointed. For my part, I've never gotten around to reading Kobayashi Maru, so I'll skip this one too. ;) |

Well, I should be getting mine in the mail hopefully on Monday (Tuesday at the latest) next week, since Amazon shipped my copy late last night from Lexington, KY, which is only about a 2 hour drive from my house. And since I'm not using their 'super saver shipping' option but actually paid for it, I think I'll get it pretty quick... |

Micheal Martin did an interview that was posted last month that goes into quite alot of details about the story and his ideas about what happens to certain characters story arcs in the book The Vulcan /Romulan history and the Kir'shara changing Vulcan society.Quite a few spoilers the interview is posted at Trekweb.
