Saw some posts and comments from a while back about the Trek books and decided to give them a try. Starting out with “Q-Squared” because it was on sale for $1.99 and I figured a Q-centric story would be a fun entry point. I am now kind of regretting that frugal decision.
It follows multiple parallel realities (called “tracks” in the book) with Q and Trelane central to the plots, so my usual casual reading style of a chapter each evening is not working out well because I just cannot keep up.
The only saving grace is that I’ve at least read “A Stitch in Time” so I know not all Trek books are this confusing. Probably going to have to just power through this one and not let it ruin the medium. It’s not that it’s a bad story, just hard to follow.

Someone else commented it a bit ago, and made me realize the rabbit hole for the Trek novelverse goes deeper than I thought.
Destiny was recommended twice here and the guide lists it as a good starting point, so once I power through this one I’ll probably start there.
I should buy A Stitch in Time. I borrowed a copy and read it years ago but I don’t actually have a copy myself.
