StarTrek.com published an article by Ryan Britt who said that as an eleven year old "Yesterday's Son" was his favorite Star Trek book.[1] I can't tell if Ryan Britt is a particularly notable writer, if this would be worth mentioning in the article in some way. -- 109.76.211.200 (talk) 22:06, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Probably not relevant, even for a very well-known author, unless this novel had some direct connection with or influence on one of their extremely notable works. BilCat (talk) 23:55, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks BilCat. Found it while looking for other things. Anyway I've made a few small improvements to the article and I was pleased to be able to add some background details from AC Crispin, so I think it is fair to say it is start class. I cannot decide if we'd be better off to just delete the many low quality the Star Trek novel articles but maybe someone else will find other ways to improve it eventually. -- 109.76.211.200 (talk) 00:05, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I tried to find this book on the New York Times best seller list http://www.hawes.com/1983/1983.htm but was not able to find it. I checked all of the months July through to December 1983. Perhaps someone else can find it, or find another source. Maybe it was on the list but below the top twenty? It would be better to have more details, more sources, and be able to verify when exactly it was on the list and at what level it achieved.-- 109.76.211.200 (talk) 00:18, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
