Upcoming eBook To Feature DS9/S.C.E. Crossover

Upcoming Star Trek: S.C.E. releases will include a murder mystery, a trip to Risa and a Deep Space Nine crossover, editor Keith R.A. DeCandido has revealed.

Posting at the Trek BBS, DeCandido presented a revised eBook publishing schedule, beginning with SCE #41 in June, Dave Galanter's Bitter Medicine, in which Dr. Lense is faced with a potentially intractable medical crisis.

Volumes 42-46, to be published from July through November, will be stand-alone eBooks, one of which - Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore's Where Time Stands Still - sees a return to the 23rd century Corps of Engineers on the U.S.S. Lovell.

In December and January 2005, the two-part Creative Couplings features a wedding between Gold's Jewish granddaughter and her Klingon fiance. Then, in April, Ilsa J. Bick's Lost Time will see the S.C.E. crew assisting the Deep Space Nine crew with a crisis that threatens the entire Bajoran system.

"Lost Time will be a full-blown DS9/S.C.E. crossover," wrote DeCandido. "Don't worry, everything's being carefully coordinated with [editor] Marco Palmieri, and it'll be really really really cool."

DeCandido also quoted author Terri Osborne on her eBook, Malefictorum, to be released in March. "It's a locked-room murder mystery (don't worry, S.C.E. fans, this won't have anywhere near Wildfire's body count)," Osborne promised. "Corsi's investigation will take the crew of the da Vinci all the way to the Gamma Quadrant, with help from and a stopover at DS9 along the way. I can already pretty much guarantee at least one appearance by Kira, Ro and Quark."
