* In J.M. Dillard's novel Star Trek: Recovery, Admiral James T. Kirk and Dr. Leonard McCoy oversee the test of the rescue ship "Recovery" at Zotos IV before the Klingons, Romulans, and Tholians. Both the fully automated ship and its designer, Myron Shulman, go mad under the influence of the vengeful Tholian Lokara, who makes the Recovery attack the other ships. Commander Lokara of the Skotha seeks revenge on Kirk and Starfleet, because Lokara's breeding partner Lanra was crippled aboard Loskene's ship during the battle against the Enterprise four years earlier (Star Trek: The Original Series episode The Tholian Web). Lokara is later killed by the Klingons.
* The 2005 novel Star Trek Vanguard: Harbinger is focused on a region of space - the Taurus Reach - close to the Tholian and Klingon frontiers, and includes several postulations on Tholian technology and society.

Taking place in 2265, there is more insight into Tholian society, including its possible linkages to ancient technological ruins found on several planets in this region of space. They were also responsible for the destruction of the U.S.S. Bombay. Their appointment of Ambassador Sesrene.
