DOUBLE, DOUBLE
On a routine exploratory mission, the Starship U.S.S. Hood picks up a distress signal from a research expedition thought lost long ago -- the expedition of Dr. Roger Korby, one of the centuries' greatest scientific minds. Korby himself is dead, it seems, but his colleagues have made a most incredible discover -- a discovery they insist the Hood's captain see for himself. Reluctantly, the captain agrees to beam down...
Meanwhile, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise™ begins long-overdue shore leave on Tranquility Seven. James T. Kirk is looking forward to a few days of rest and relaxation....until what seems like a bizarre case of mistaken identity plunges Kirk into a whirlpool of mayhem and murder.
And puts an inhuman stranger with his memories and anilities in command of the Enterprise.

Double, Double is one of the better Star Trek novels, with an engaging story generally well told.

Enterprise. Brown and "Kirk" lure a starship to planet Exo III where they lure ... Read More

For a book dealing with evil twins, this one's pretty darn good. It's a sequel to a weak-but-fun first season episode. Read it for excitement and fun.
