    You need to find a copy of the novel, To Dream in the City of Sorrows, which I think is still in print from Del Rey books. It covers Sinclair's life from early in his tenure on Minbar until just before his return to B5 for "War Without End" As a bonus it fills in much of Marcus Cole's backstory.

      The book "To Dream in the City of Sorrows" deals almost entirely with the question of what happened to Sinclair after he was shipped of to Minbar, including what happened with his relationship with Catherine. It's written by Kathryn Drennan, JMS's wife, and is considered fully canon by him. The book is still in stock in most places (like Amazon), so if you really want an in depth answer, that's by far the best place to look.

      edit: Ack, Joe's too fast for me.

        I read on Worlds of JMS that in November 2259, Sinclair led two Rangers (Catherine and Marcus) on a mission to prevent the Shadows from exploiting the time rift in Sector 14. Catherine's fighter was lost in the time rift and disappeared into the past. It is believed that Valen found Catherine Sakai, who journeyed to the same time in the past.

          Having recommended the book that tells this story, I thought it best not to spoil an important plot point by blurting it out in a post here. Silly me.

            Didn't know about a book. I thought it was just conjecture. Sorry.

              Stuff happens. But the book was the subject of the last two messages posted before yours.

                Not to worry, John (and welcome, btw). There really is no 'spoiling' B5 around here since the show hasn't had new episodes or books for several years (until Lost Tales - woo-hoo!!). If we have new fans who let us know, we happily set up spoiler-free threads for them. We have an ulterior motive for that, of course...that way we get to enjoy watching them discover the show for the first time.

                If you do want to disguise something that you think might be spoilerish, you can. Just type [ spoiler] in front and [ /spoiler] (remove the extra spaces) at the end and the reader will need to highlight the text to read it. DougO is still working on getting us a button for that.

                  Thanks Jan for the spoiler feature here. I haven't seen it on other boards, just a spoiler notice in the thread title. I just noticed on another thread there was a spoiler but nothing but blank space, thanks for help.

                  I also like to see or read the impressions of new fans when they learn something new. We were all once new to this and it was quite a revelation for me the first time I watched B5 from the beginning. Not putting other TV shows down, but but IMO, I feel that B5 was the best series, especially scifi, every made.

                  I'm a Star Trek fan also, but Star Trek lost it's place as #1 on my list a few years ago (I don't think it's too hard to figure out what's #1 on my list now). Ever since watching B5, Crusade, and the movies, I've been a kind defender of B5 over at st.com boards. It can be a tough argument sometimes, especially with the DS9 diehards, but with my non-flaming/non-attacking posts, I get very favorable responces, especially from those (Niners) who don't know much about B5.
