Writer David Alan Mack has cowritten two episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and several Star Trek novels and short stories.
He and John J. Ordover cowrote the 1995 Deep Space Nine episode "Starship Down" and the story treatment for the 1999 episode "It's Only a Paper Moon". They also collaborated on the comic book mini-series Star Trek: Divided We Fall from WildStorm Comics.
Mack also wrote the dialog for the Deep Space Nine videogames The Fallen and Dominion Wars, and the character bios for Star Trek: Starship Creator.
His novels include Harbinger and Reap the Whirlwind, the first and third volumes of a new Star Trek novel series, Star Trek: Vanguard; the Star Trek: The Next Generation "Time to..." duology A Time to Kill and A Time to Heal; Warpath, part of the popular Deep Space Nine relaunch series, and the Star Trek: Mirror Universe novella The Sorrows of Empire. He wrote the tongue-in-cheek reference work The Starfleet Survival Guide in 2002.
Mack has also worked with Keith R.A. DeCandido on the Star Trek: Starfleet Corps of Engineers eBook series, contributing the two-part novels Invincible (collected in Miracle Workers) and Wildfire, as well as the single volumes Failsafe (collected in Grand Designs), and Small Worlds (collected in Creative Couplings).
His Star Trek short stories include the Shinzon story "Twilight's Wrath", in the Tales of the Dominion War anthology, and the Zak Kebron story "Waiting for G'Doh, or, How I Learned to Stop Moving and Hate People", in the Star Trek: New Frontier anthology No Limits. Another short story - title to be announced - will appear in the 2009 Star Trek: Mirror Universe anthology Shards and Shadows.
Mack's current project is the crossover trilogy Star Trek: Destiny, to be released in late 2008, which will feature characters from a number of Star Trek series, and affect the storylines of most of the ongoing novel series.
Following this, Mack will be writing the fifth novel in the Vanguard series, for release in December 2009, as well as a tie-in novel to The 4400.
