 The Star Trek: Vanguard series of books builds a lot of detail into
 civilian life, the life of a Federation News Service journalist, the
 co-existence of non-aligned but neutral parties like the Orions, and
 civilian life aboard a space station. They're interesting novels set
 in the TOS timeframe and play around with some of the characters,
 build rich back stories to what were minor characters, and end up
 being an entertaining read and a nice fleshing out of stories, places
 and characters that canon just touched on.
