Nebula Alert is, in fact, one of three stories that concern this particular Rim Worlds – the Empress Irene itreration – an off-shoot of the main Rim Worlds saga. Two of those novels, including Nebula Alert, have direct contact between this alternate reality and the one inhabited by John Grimes, Chandler's most written about character.
A parallel universe/timeline kind of graphic can be found here (though it isn't complete) that will give you some kind of a visual idea of what is going on. http://www.rimworlds.com/rimworldsalternates.htm
Nebula Alert is a good space yarn with a nautical flavor.

Empress of Outer Space
Space Mercenaries
Nebula Alert
The Dark Dimensions
