Release Day: TOS: Lost to Eternity & Picard's Academy Omnibus!

It's new book day, and we have two releases for Trek fans this week! First, a rare new Star Trek novel release from veteran Trek author Greg Cox, and IDW's latest paperback omnibus edition of a recent comic miniseries!


The Original Series:
Lost to Eternity

by Greg Cox


It's always great when a new Star Trek novel is released, and I've been waiting for this one in particular! There's a lot here to grab readers' interests, including a follow-up on the events of Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home, as well as an adventure set in the movie-era of Trek, one of my favorite settings for stories in the Star Trek universe.

Check out the back cover blurb below, along with links to purchase the paperback, e-book, and audiobook editions from Amazon!







Publisher's description:
Three Eras. Three Mysteries. One Ancient Enemy?
2024: Almost forty years ago, marine biologist Gillian Taylor stormed away from her dream job at Sausalito’s Cetacean Institute—and was never seen or heard from again. Now a new true crime podcast has reopened that cold case, but investigator Melinda Silver has no idea that her search for the truth about Gillian’s disappearance will ultimately stretch across time and space—and attract the attention of a ruthless obsessive with his own secret agenda.
2268:The U.S.S. Enterprise’s five-year mission is interrupted when Captain James T. Kirk and his crew set out to recover an abducted Federation scientist whose classified secrets are being sought by the Klingons as well. The trail leads to a barbaric world off limits to both Starfleet and the Klingon Empire—and an ageless mastermind on a quest for eternity.
2292: The Osori, an ancient alien species, has finally agreed to establish relations with its much younger neighbors: the Federation, the Klingons, and the Romulans. A joint mission involving ships from all three powers, including the Enterprise-A, turns explosive when one of the Osori envoys is apparently killed. Each side blames the others, but the truth lies buried deep, nearly three hundred years in the past…

Also out today is a new graphic novel collecting the Picard's Academy comic miniseries from IDW:

Picard's Academy:
Commit No Mistakes

Written by Sam Maggs
Art by Ornella Greco


A young cadet, one Jean-Luc Picard, must navigate interpersonal relationships and evaluation by his academy instructors to graduate and become the Starfleet officer we know and love. This edition collects all six issues of the Picard's Academy miniseries.

The publisher's description can be found below, along with links to purchase the paperback edition from Amazon!






Publisher's description:
Before becoming the Federation’s finest, Jean-Luc was an ordinary student at Starfleet Academy with sights on the stars. His path forward was charted: blow his classmates out of the water on the infamous Evasive Maneuvers exam and graduate early. But there’s a detail Cadet Picard hadn’t factored into his plan: the exam was a group project and he’d need to make friends with, ugh, people if he stood a chance at passing.
Federation starships aren’t run by a party of one, after all. During the training exercise, Picard accidentally puts the lives of himself and two of his classmates—Doq and Marty—in danger!
