Star Trek: Titan/YMMV

""I always knew I'd be killed by nature!""
 * Continuity Porn: The first few novels alone have Call Backs to previous films, series and books, including locations and characters from Star Trek: The Lost Era. One particular mission by Captain Sulu of the Excelsior is a massive part of the second book's plot and backstory.
 * Crowning Moment of Funny: Xin Ra-Havreii at the climax of Over a Torrent Sea:

"" I don't know what to say".
 * Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: The ending of Over a Torrent Sea.
 * Plus the end of Synthesis, when :

"Say yes""


 * Ensemble Darkhorse: Minor character Torvig Bu-kar-nguv has become rather popular, and his role in the series expanded significantly. The author who created him has expressed his pleasant surprise.
 * Unfortunate Implications: The novels can sometimes come off as an extended exercise in white guilt, extended to white male guilt, taken to an extreme with white male human guilt. Riker spends almost an entire chapter bemoaning that he comes from "a culture built on rape and conquest"... ignoring that this could describe practically every culture on Earth. Even assuming that's what he meant, as opposed to just white Americans, it ignores that most other Star Trek cultures have similarly warlike pasts, despite the airs they put on, and a lot of the rest of his current ship's crew have practices that are just as immoral to an outside observer as rape and conquest would be.
 * The Woobie: Troi, Jaza, Vale, Tuvok, Riker, Keru, Ra-Havreii, Ree, screw it THE ENTIRE CREW.
 * Wangst: And we're talking Buffy levels of it, here.
 * White Man's Burden: Whether Riker is an actual example of it as the white human captain of an almost totally non-human/non-humanoid crew is debatable. The fact that he spends most of his time in the novels wringing his hands worrying that people will think this of him isn't.
