David Mack is one of the most prolific Star Trek novelists, with hundreds of entries across virtually every Trek franchise. His work includes the Destiny trilogy, which was a major crossover event in the Trek novel continuity, and the Coda Trilogy (2021), which brought the long-running relaunch novel universe to a close.

Outside of Star Trek, Mack writes the Dark Arts urban fantasy series, which began with The Midnight Front (2018) and follows magicians fighting secret wars during and after World War II.
