In the initial [[Deep Space Nine relaunch|''Deep Space Nine'' relaunch]] novels, Odo is succeeded as security chief by [[Ro Laren]], who is working for the [[Bajoran]] Militia.

In the ''Star Trek: Deep Space Nine – Millennium'' series of novels, it is revealed that Odo rarely shifted into smaller forms such as insects due to a psychological block from his original training under Doctor Mora. The novel series also speculates that the Founders placed a mental block on Odo's abilities to make it difficult for him to alter his face, thus explaining why he can never get faces quite right, even after linking with other Changelings on several occasions.<ref>{{Cite book |title=Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Millennium |first1=Judith |last1=Reeves-Stevens |date=2002 |publisher=Pocket Books |last2=Reeves-Stevens |first2=Garfield |isbn=0743442490 |location=New York |oclc=48747215 |url=https://archive.org/details/millenniumomnibu00judi }}</ref>

In the ''Star Trek: Typhon Pact'' novel ''Raise the Dawn'', Odo returned to the Alpha Quadrant to help [[Benjamin Sisko|Sisko]] investigate reports that the Typhon Pact, an alliance of the Federation's enemies, have stolen Jem'Hadar technology to perfect their own quantum slipstream drive, only to be trapped in the Alpha Quadrant when the wormhole was seemingly destroyed thanks to Kira's attempt to stop a Typhon Pact ship from using it again. Sisko offered Odo a place on his new ship, the ''Robinson'', but the novel ends with Odo deciding to remain on Bajor for a time to think about what he will do next.<ref>{{Cite book |title=Raise the dawn |last=George III |first=David R. |date=2012 |publisher=Pocket Books |isbn=978-1451649567 |location=New York |oclc=851699974 |url=https://archive.org/details/isbn_9781451649567 }}</ref>
