The listing suggested it, along with "Starfleet Academy Untitled Paperback #1", would be published as a trade paperback in November 2010, and that both would be written by Rudy Josephs. In March 2010 the website TrekMovie.com confirmed the book would be set in the of the movie, depicting the characters' time at Starfleet Academy. By this time Josephs was only listed as the author for "Untitled Paperback #1" Later in March the Simon and Schuster listings were updated, giving Rick Barba as the author of for "Untitled Paperback #2", and listing the book in both trade paperback, and hardcover, as well as ebook. In May 2010 the Simon and Schuster listings were updated once more, the working title of The Delta Anomaly was listed, and the book had been moved up to the first in the series; with Rudy Josephs’ book, The Competitive Edge, which had previously been listed as "Starfleet Academy Untitled Paperback #1", being pushed back to a 2011 release date..
