Star Trek: Destiny


The science fiction franchise Star Trek has been adapted into published novels, novelizations, and short story collections since 1968. Three main companies have published Star Trek fiction: Bantam Books (from 1967 to 1981), Ballantine Books (from 1974 to 1978), and, since 1979, Pocket Books.

Based on the original Star Trek TV series:

The first eleven releases from Bantam Books were adaptations of original series episodes written by James Blish and J. A. Lawrence. The pair also contributed the original works Spock Must Die! and Mudd's Angels.

The series of original novels and anthologies was never given an official name by Bantam Books. However, a number of titles did have marquees such as "A New Star Trek Adventure." Booklist sites, including Goodreads, have used "Star Trek Adventures" as the name for the series. Star Trek Adventures is the name of a book series published by Titan Books from 1993 to 1995, which contains a number of other titles originally published by Pocket Books.

Many volumes were reprinted by UK publishers Corgi and Titan Books.

From 1977 to 1978, Bantam released twelve graphic novel adaptations containing photographic stills from the selected episodes, including dialogue balloons and scene directions in a comics style. The books were credited to the original writers of the episodes. Similar adaptations of Star Trek: The Motion Picture and Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan were released by Pocket Books.

Alan Dean Foster edited a series of adaptations based on episodes of Star Trek: The Animated Series. The series included new story elements, creating a consistent narrative across all volumes. The series was collected in several omnibus editions published by Del Rey Books, and Pocket Books in UK and Australia.
