DeCandido, Michael Jan Friedman, Dave Galanter, Robert Greenberger, Jeffrey Lang & Heather Jarman, Josepha Sherman & Susan Shwartz, Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore, and Howard Weinstein. For two seasons, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine chronicled the intense struggle of the Federation, fighting alongside the Klingons and the Romulans against the overwhelming forces of the Dominion in some of the most exciting hours of television ever produced. Now, for the first time, see how the Dominion War affected the entirety of the Star Trek universe. From the heart of the Federation to the bridge of the Starship Enterprise . From the front lines of Klingon space to the darkest recesses of the Romulan Empire. From the heroic members of the Starfleet Corps of Engineers to the former crew of the U.S.S. Stargazer . From the edge of the New Frontier to the corridors of station Deep Space 9. Some of the finest Star Trek novelists have been gathered to provide a dozen new tales from this seminal period in galactic history. Heroes from three generations--Sisko, Picard, Spock, Kira, Calhoun, Klag, McCoy, Gold, and so many more--brought together in these. TALES OF THE DOMINION WAR. This anthology of stories is edited by Keith R.A. DeCandido. Here is the table of contents: "Introduction by Keith R.A. DeCandido "What Dreams May Come" by Michael Jan Friedman "Night of the Vulture" by Greg Cox "The Ceremony of Innocence is Drowned" by Keith R.A. DeCandido "Blood Sacrifice" by Josepha Sherman & Susan Shwartz "Mirror Eyes" by Heather Jarman & Jeffrey Lang "Twilight's Wrath" by David Mack "Eleven Hours Out" by Dave Galanter "Safe Harbors" by Howard Weinstein "Field Expediency" by Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore "A Song Well Sung" by Robert Greenberger "Stone Cold Truths" by Peter David "Requital" by Michael A. Martin and Andy Mangels The Dominion War timeline, compiled by Keith R.A. DeCandido. REVIEWS FOR TALES OF THE DOMINION WAR. "Michael A. Martin & Andy Mangels close out the collection with a clever and gripping story that takes place during the final episode of Deep Space Nine's television run. Requital is built around events in the DS9 finale, and features the return of the grizzled combat vet Reese, from the episode "The Seige at AR-558". Individually, these stories represent some of the best Star Trek writing ever: frightening, profound, dazzling, funny, and well written without exception. — Wigglefish review by Kilian Melloy. "It’s the final tale, Michael Martin and Andy Mangels’ “Requital” that spins the saddest web of them all: cultures that have lived their entire lives caught up in war without ever experiencing peace are doomed to be the ones who will pass their legacy down to future generations… unless someone steps in to stop them. Like our own world’s agony in the Middle East, some people are meant to live only for war because of the ignorance of their life-long precepts. — TrekWeb review by Bill Williams. Tales of the Dominion War. Reading an anthology is a totally different kind of reading experience than reading a novel. In many ways it can be more satisfying - and reading an anthology doesn't get much more satisfying than the new collection Tales of the Dominion War . Featuring stories from a wide range of popular authors, Tales of the Dominion War is one of this years must read titles. Edited by Keith R.A. DeCandido, this anthology gathers together twelve stories that span the Star Trek universe and provide for the reader a unique overview of the war and the fight to protect the Alpha quadrant from the overwhelming forces of the Dominion and their allies. Michael Jan Friedman, Greg Cox, Keith DeCandido, Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz, Heather Jarman and Jeffrey Lang, David Mack, Dave Galanter, Howard Weinstein, Dayton Ward & Kevin Dilmore, Robert Greenberger, Andy Mangels and Michael A. Martin and Peter David all leave an impression as they take the reader on a journey to explore various facets of the war from different points of view. Also included at the end of the volume is a Dominion War timeline that takes into account not only on screen events but events established in the novels and short stories. There are stories that illuminate events we know took place but we never got much detail on such as one of the pivotal moments of the war, the fall of Betazed. Keith R.A. DeCandido takes it upon himself to place the reader on Betazed when it falls under Dominion attack in "The Ceremony of Innocence is Drowned". Through Lwaxana Troi we experience the lightening quick attack against an almost defenseless population. Another crucial moment in the war is the Breen attack against Earth. Both "Eleven Hours Out" by Dave Galanter and Howard Weinstein's "Safe Harbors", a sweet little story that perfectly captures the camaraderie between Scotty and McCoy, tackle the Breen attack but from totally different perspectives. "Eleven Hours Out", set on Earth during the attack, provides not only a vivid description of the destruction and the aftermath of the attack but also manages to be a nice character piece for Jean-Luc Picard. In Star Trek: Nemesis we were introduced to a clone named Shinzon and told that he served the Romulan Empire with distinction during the Dominion War. In "Twilight's Wrath" David Mack not only tells Shinzon's tale in spectacular heart pounding fashion but also manages to clear up some of that movie's other incongruities. As agreeable as it is to have events we've wondered about clarified, the stories that don't elucidate previously known events were just as enjoyable for their distinctiveness. "Night of the Vulture" by Greg Cox has an entirely different tone. With a palpable sense of menace, Cox spins a tale that cleverly utilizes his unique storytelling gifts, the Jem'Hadar, and an old menace, the Beta XII-A entity. "Blood Sacrifice" by Josepha Sherman and Susan Shwartz takes us to Romulus where on the eve of the Romulans entry into the war Ambassador Spock finds himself trying to unravel the mysterious motivation behind the assassination of the Romulan Emperor. "Mirror Eyes" marks the first time that Heather Jarman and Jeffrey Lang have collaborated on a story. Based on "Mirror Eyes" I certainly look forward to anything else these two should cook up together. Told in first person, through the journal entries of a Tal Shiar agent working undercover on Deep Space 9, "Mirror Eyes" is both riveting and poignant. Some of the stories utilize literary-based characters such as "Field Expediency" by Dayton Ward and Kevin Dilmore that features the crew of U.S.S. da Vinci from the Starfleet Corps Engineers series in a story that perfectly captures the spirit of that series. In a nod to the Stargazer series "What Dreams May Come" by Michael Jan Friedman opens the volume with a story set early in the war where nothing is quite as it seems. Told from the perspective of Sejeel, a pampered Vorta who has been lulled into a sense of complacency, "What Dreams May Come" is classic Michael Jan Friedman. Robert Greenberger's "A Song Well Sung" highlights Commander Klag of the I.K.S. Gorkon in the ultimate survivors tale while Peter David spins a fantastical New Frontier story, "Stone Cold Truths", that only he could tell. Rounding out the volume is the final story "Requital" by Michael A. Martin and Andy Mangels. Set concurrently with Deep Space Nine's final episode "What You Leave Behind", for me this story was the saddest and most difficult to read because you can't help but recognize the parallels to our own world. It is not often that I read a story anthology and can honestly say that I enjoyed every one. I can say that about Tales of the Dominion War . Each and every story has something singular to offer. Don't be surprised if when you finish this volume you find yourself compelled to start all over again. Jacqueline Bundy reviews Star Trek books for the Trek Nation, writes monthly columns for the TrekWeb newsletter and the Star Trek Galactic News, and hosts the Yahoo Star Trek Books Group weekly chat. 'Tales Of The Dominion War' Announced. Pocket Books will release a new anthology of stories set during the Dominion War next year, author and editor Keith R.A. DeCandido announced today. Entitled 'Tales of the Dominion War,' the anthology will contain twelve stories by sixteen Trek writers, according to a post by DeCandido at the Trek BBS. DeCandido will serve as editor of the anthology, currently scheduled to be published as a trade paperback in summer 2004. 'Tales of the Dominion War' plans to widen the scope of the war beyond Deep Space Nine . "There are still many tales to be told," DeCandido wrote. "Some of those were chronicled in the Next Generation books in the 1998 'Dominion War' tetralogy by John Vornholt, the 2002 TNG novel 'The Battle of Betazed' by Charlotte Douglas and Susan Kearney, and the 2002 eBooks S'tar Trek: S.C.E: War Stories' by yours truly.

  • EA and Del Rey Announce Novel Based on Popular Command & Conquer Game Series
    EA and Del Rey Announce Novel Based on Popular Command & Conquer Game Series Gaming Universe Expands to New Forms of Media LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 26, 2007--Electronic Arts (NASDAQ:ERTS) and Del Rey, an imprint of Ballantine Books at the Random House Publishing Group, announced today that Del Rey will publish a novel based on the critically- acclaimed Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars™ computer and videogame on May 29, 2007 in the US and Canada. The novel will release in the U.K. and Germany in the months following. The game is available now for the PC and will be in stores May 10, 2007 for the Xbox 360™ videogame and entertainment system. In COMMAND & CONQUER: TIBERIUM WARS™, the novel by Keith R. A. DeCandido, the year is 2047 and the stakes could not be higher. Tiberium--a self-replicating alien substance that has infected the Earth--is spreading like a radioactive ice age. The Global Defense Initiative, a high-tech alliance of the world's most advanced nations, is fighting to contain Tiberium, but Kane, the megalomaniacal leader of the Brotherhood of Nod has other plans for Earth. Kane's secret society turned superpower is bent on using Tiberium to take control and transform humanity into his twisted vision of the future. In the midst of battles throughout the world, a third alien race emerges, and all-out war rages over Tiberium. The fate of the planet rests in the balance. "We're excited to expand the Command & Conquer franchise to a new form of media and offer a depth to the underlying fiction of the game series like never before," said Patrick O'Brien, VP of Business Affairs at EA.

  • A Study of Graphic Novel Cataloging Records. PUB DATE Feb 92 NOTE 93P.; Master's Thesis, Kent State University
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 352 976 IR 054 326 AUTHOR Andelson, Eric TITLE A Study of Graphic Novel Cataloging Records. PUB DATE Feb 92 NOTE 93p.; Master's Thesis, Kent State University. PUB TYPE Dissertations/Theses Masters Theses (042) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC04 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Bibliographic Utilities; *Cataloging; College Libraries; Higher Education; Library Research; Online Catalogs; Online Searching; Research Methodology; Statistical Analysis; *Subject Index Terms; Tables (Data) IDENTIFIERS Bowling Green State University OH; *Graphic Novels; OCLC; Statistical Package for the Social Sciences ABSTRACT Graphic novels are a blending of words and art in which the illustrations bear the same relationship to the text that a film carries to its screenplay. The hypothesis of this research is that, as a new form of literature, graphic novels will display inconsistent cataloging. Methodology consisted of searching the titles generated from Bowling Green State University's subject heading, Graphic Novels, against OCLC records. There are 191 titles, with 299 OCLC records and 3,416 holdings. All records for the same title were downloaded from OCLC, encoded, and entered into SPSS. Statistical analysis such as tabulating and frequency distribution are utilized in analyzing the cataloging records. Definitions, examples, AACR2 cataloging rules, subject headings, added entries, and classification numbers clarify the format as well as the cataloging of graphic novels. One conclusion is that there are consistencies as well as inconsistencies in the cataloging record. Another is that graphic novels are not automatically cGnsidered juvenile works. Several recommendations based on the study findings are offered: (1) "chiefly ill." should be used in the physical field; (2) a subject heading "Graphic Novels" should be assigned in order to bring out this form of literature;(3) libraries may want to class graphic novels together locally; and (4) more individuals and roles should be listed in the statement of responsibility or notes.
