    Was thinking about this last night, are there any novels out now or recently that are set in the JJ-verse? There might be fan fiction as well.

    Enlighten me :D

    your welcome. :)

    google

    "memory alpha" for all canon star trek items
    "memory beta" for non canon stuff - a lot of the books fall into this category

    if there is anything you'll find reference to it here, basically Star trek wiki.

    There is definitely a back story as to how and why Spock appears in the universe, its part of the detailed buildup to Star Trek Online.

    There were four novels due out this summer set in the JJ-verse. They were written by Christopher L. Bennett, David Mack, Greg Cox and Alan Dean Foster. The novels were written, and at least one reached the copy-edit stage.

    However a few months ago it was announced they were all on indefinite hold, until at least the sequel is out in the cinema. It appears they want the movies to chart the future of this new timeline for at least the next while.

    There are two 'young adult' books due out next year set during nuKirk's time in the Academy.

    I'd like to read books about Captain Robert April and the first Enterprise. Diane Carey wrote two great ones and they could be squeezed in. I'm a little hazy on the exact chronology of old timeline and new timeline, but I'm sure it could be done. And there's no reason to say April didn;t command an Enterprise before the iShip was built (that's my little Apple jibe there).

    That is a bit of a stretch, even for this Trek

    According to Memory Alpha, he commanded the ship from 2245 to 2250. It could still be Constitution-class, but more to the level of Star Trek V/VI tech, due to the tieline tangent and technology upgrades.

    You could even do a series of books, ending with the destruction of the Constitution-class Enterprise, and the naming of the newest ship being built in Iowa as Enterprise. Have Pike as XO (instead of George Kirk in the Carey novels). It would work quite easily!

    Trek 2.0 claims Kirk and co join the Enterprise on 2258. So it gives plenty of lee-way.
