A Chronological Timeline (in Earth Years) of the Star Trek Novelverse


This compilation is meant as both a salute and expression of gratitude to all the authors of the novels, novellas, short stories, and comics listed herein, as well as to those not so listed, in a show of praise.

This chronology solely concerns the novels, novellas, short stories, and a few comics and comic miniseries that specifically tie in with the ‘Novelverse’, presented along the timeline of Earth dates when they take place.  At least those which were designed to be or compatible continuity and which easily fit into a chronological timeline; there are many, many others not listed here—such the the Mere Anarchy novella miniseries, for instance—that are more than worth a reader’s time.

Star Trek’s “Novelverse” (aka “Lit-verse”) began with the Star Trek Relaunch, while the whole concept of a relaunch of a Star Trek TV series in literature began with Star Trek: Deep Space Nine novels Avatar 1 & 2, which in turn launched the DS9 Relaunch.  There have always been licensed Star Trek novels, stories, and comics, but this was a different effort, one by multiple scifi authors coordinating with each other through a single editor on details in order to, mostly, avoid consistency conflicts.  The wild success of the two Avatar novels devoured by eager DS9 fans ensured its continuation and expansion.

With that proceeding, the community also added post-TV series novels to Star Trek: The Next Generation and to Star Trek: Voyager.  Though the “official” TNG Relaunch doesn’t start until Death in Winter just after Nemesis, the TNG novels that take place after the end of DS9 are often counted as part of the overall Relaunch.  The VOY relaunch starts with Homecoming, the first novel after the end of that series.  Even ENT had its own relaunch, though its was much briefer.  The Novelverse also includes ex post facto certain novels published before the Avatars.

Widely counted as part of the overall Star Trek Relaunch, the Star Trek: New Frontier series was Star Trek’s first all-literature series, premiering in 1997, and its popularity paved the way for Star Trek: Gorkon/Klingon Empire and Star Trek: Starfleet Corps of Engineers, both of which are entirely within the Relaunch era.  Eventually, the novelverse spread back in time to include the TOS era Star Trek: Vanguard, Star Trek: Seekers, Star Trek: New Earth, and Star Trek: The Lost Era and The Eugenics Wars trilogy, along with novels in the Star Trek: Enterprise Relaunch and the Star Trek: Vulcan novels.  The Star Trek: The Captain’s Table miniseries of novels, its related anthology of short stories, Star Trek: Tales from The Captain’s Table, and the anthology of short stories, Star Trek: Seven Deadly Sins, which explores seven of the alien cultures encountered by the UFP, likewise cross all eras.

Nearly all of those novel series and miniseries connect with those in the Relaunch in one way or another.  The ST SCE series, for example, includes stories that take place in all eras of Star Trek.  The ST VAN miniseries connects with a very important storyline in the whole Star Trek Relaunch, and one of its major characters is the namesake of a major figure in the DS9 Relaunch; it also features as guests stars the Starfleet Corps of Engineers, a group starring in the eponymous series developed for the overall Star Trek Relaunch.  The ST TLE series provides backstories for several characters and events in the TV series and in the Relaunch, such as the story of why Koloth, Kang, Kor, and Curzon Dax (who plays roles in most of the TLE stories) swore revenge against the Albino.

STAR TREK: MYRIAD UNIVERSES

Examines other possible timelines outside that of the Prime Universe, though far less than the 280,000 of ST:TNG s07e11 “Parallels”, a concept which could easily include the “Nu Trek” series.  There are three anthologies containing three novellas each plus a five-part comic miniseries which was eventually released as a TPB.  Since there’s no timeline, they are presented into order of publication.

STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS

The short stories in the following anthologies were written by novice authors who won a contest to write a story based in the Star Trek Universe.  The stories cover all eras of Star Trek.  The first ten collections were published annually from 1998 to 2007, with a final volume published in 2016 for the 50th anniversary.  Although I included many of those related to ST:DS9 in my chronology of that series and its related novels and stories (“Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, a Chronology of the TV Series and its Relaunch in novels”; https://notesfromtheninthcircle.blogspot.com/2018/02/star-trek-deep-space-nine-chronology-of.html), I haven’t done so here because that would be crazy-making.

These are not really part of the “Novelverse canon”, but they were published in that era and many of the writers wrote works in the Novelverse.
