Cute but fanged
One Trek side series (well, two books thus far) I rather enjoyed is the Department of Temporal Investigations novels. Mostly non-series characters (based largely on the two guys who showed up for the DS9 Tribble episode), but they're reasonably interesting/amusing, and it does a remarkably nice job tying together all the large number of time travel Trek episodes into a coherent storyline. It's post-Destiny storyline in the Trek novel timeline so some spoilers there, but for the most part you don't need to have read anything else to follow it. A fairly decent look at time travel issues in general, and it's pretty funny seeing folks whose response to time travel/adventure stuff is "AHHHHH shut it off before you retcon the Federation into Space Nazis (again!)" rather than leaping into it.
