Question - Star Trek Explorer Presents short story collections from Titan Bookstores - are they simply compilations from the magazines or new content? ( startrek.website )

Answering myself - as I ordered this and now have my own copy.

Titanbooks is being as non-transparent as possible.

— the copy on the back cover says “Includes original fiction by …”

— the publication details on the back of the title page do not mention any of the stories having been previously published in the magazine.

However, the typesetting and layout is exactly that as in the magazine.

One would have to know a particular story from a particular magazine issue to confirm whether it was previously published.
