The Ivonova story
The Marcus story
The G'Kar/Lyta story
The Londo story
And I think, the Babylon 5 story.

[i]"Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future, or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain."[/i] G'Kar, Season 3

I was not really too fond of the story where marcus was revived. It was rather bad, IMHO. It simply lacked the quality I have become accustomed to. The Ivanova story was a good read, but still was missing the spark that made b5 great.
**************************************
Sorry to have taken a while to get back to you, but I've been
extraordinarily busy with a variety of projects, including acquiring the
rights to the Babylon 5 novels published by Dell, so we can look into
getting them back into print. My plan is to begin with the two
favorites--by Jeanne Cavelos and Kathryn Drennan--and see what kind of
response we get from the Babylon 5 fans.
We're in the process of reviewing the sales patterns for the first two
techno-mage novels, to help us determine whether or not there's enough
demand to call for further new novels. Now that two of the techno-mage
books are out, we're beginning to get reasonable data that will help us plan
for the future.
We certainly make no secret of these releases--each one is fully spotlighted
in the catalog we use to sell our novels into the book stores, and we
announce each book via ads appearing in science fiction trade publications
like Locus Magazine. We also announce each and every one via our internet
newsletter and on our web site, posting sample chapters to attract new
readers. And we spread the word via our staff and displays at the major
summer conventions, including DragonCon, GenCon, and San Diego ComicCon,
with a total attendance of more than 100,000 fans.
Unfortunately, publications that used to help us get the word out have
themselves been cancelled--magazines like Amazing Stories and the Babylon 5
fan magazine.
One of the books we are considering is a short story collection, and if it
looks as if we can pick up the license to produce that collection, we'll be
sure to spread the word to B5 fandom.
So there may, indeed, be more Babylon 5 books to come.
Best,
Steve Saffel
