[edit] Media
There was line of Pocket novels published during Deep Space Nine's run along with several comics. These stories generally take place within the first four seasons of Deep Space Nine. There is also a line of young adult novels about the adventures of Jake and Nog while growing up on Deep Space Nine. After Deep Space Nine's finale, a line of novels known as the "DS9 relaunch" were published depicting the station after Sisko's departure.

[edit] Summary
Unlike the previous two series, Deep Space Nine is set on a space station, Deep Space 9, that was previously under the control of the Cardassians. The series also had runabouts and later the USS Defiant so that the stories did not always have to be restricted to the station. Due to the mostly stationary situation of the series, DS9 tended more toward continuing stories, rather than the "alien of the week" approach common to other series. Some of the main arc's involved the Bajorans growing from years under occupation by the Cardassians, Captain Sisko's role as the Emissary, and the build up to and eventual breakout of the Dominion War in the final two seasons.
