There are a few like The Lives of Dax and The Romulan Way that stand out as decent sf literature.

Oh, The Romulan Way is fantastic. Also My Enemy, My Ally which is its prequel. Anything by Diane Duane, really.

But I think the quality of the Star Trek novels has gone downhill since they started insisting everything should fit into the same continuity.

I agree. There are only a few books in recent years that I liked. Lives of Dax, which I already mentioned, and Tales of the Dominion War. Articles of the Federation wasn't bad either, though it's certainly not a favorite of mine. And some of the DS9 relaunch story was good. But most of it has been pretty bland and uninteresting in recent years.

A lot of the older stuff, though, is great. There are plenty of duds, of course, but there are several novels that really shine.

(I need more Star Trek icons.)

Diane Duane wrote my other totally favorite Star Trek novel, Doctor's Orders, too. She's good stuff.
