I like all of them, but the best ones I think are the Nanotech Wars, the Dark Matter Series, and the String Theory Series

^ In addition to those, I strongly recommend the tenth-anniversary short-story anthology Distant Shores, which features a dozen or so stories from throughout the seven years Voyager was in the Delta Quadrant.

I wouldn't bother with the Dark Matters trilogy, but YES to:

String Theory trilogy:
Cohesion
Fusion
Evolution

Distant Shores

and Mosaic is worth reading.
So is Shadow.
As is The Final Fury, but then you'd likely have to read the previous three novels in the Invasion! series.

Dafydd ab Hugh writes great Trek... granted I've only ever read Fallen Heroes and The Final Fury, but both were great reads.
However, a quick read of the summary for Balance of Power has me skeptical... a "Save Wesley" sub-plot... ack.

Letting Go

If you say so, but I sure hope The Black Shore is a ton better than The Worst of Both Worlds - that was terrible.

The Black Shore was very good, I share your spectism though, I was kinda weary about picking it up, because I didnt like his Q continuem books or the euginics wars books

That's what I've found discouraging... that short story was so terrible, but the prospect of a trilogy based on The Eugenics Wars... I'm sure I'll read them someday, but I sure hope that after I read them, I'm not as green-faced as I was after finishing Cox's contribution to Glass Empires.
