Product Description:
Continuing the mission he began in "Unification," Starfleet Ambassador Spock endeavors to impart the logic of the Vulcan way to a small band of Romulans eager to unite the Romulan Empire and the planet Vulcan. But unbeknownst to them, a Romulan spy has joined the ranks disguised as a Unification sympathizer. Deceived by this traitor, Spock and his students are taken hostage.
Fearful that Spock's knowledge of Federation security will fall into enemy hands, Starfleet dispatches its best ship, the U.S.S. EnterpriseTM 1701-D, and most respected captain, Jean-Luc Picard, to secure the hostages' release. Spock's former shipmate from the original Starship EnterpriseTM, Ambassador McCoy -- over one hundred forty years old, but still as feisty as ever -- is brought in to consult on the negotiations.
Their situation is further complicated when Captain Montgomery Scott confiscates an out-of-service starship and effects his own daring rescue of Spock. Picard must now find a way to preserve the Federation's security and prevent a war while treading a mindfield of danger and deadly Romulan politics that threaten his ship, his crew, and the Federation he serves.

This is what a real trekky always love. A crossover between favorite characters of the different Star Trek series! Besides, the plot is easy to follow and very exciting. Michael Jan Friedman is very good at that. I definitely recommend this book and hope that more like it are currently being written.

You can bet that if Peter David had lifted a cliche as hoary as the "I am Spartacus" moment for one of his stories, he would have at least given a nod to his source! Spock as messiah became fairly tedious, as did the rehash of 'old codger from OST becoming a liability and then proving himself' plot line from RELICS. Dry, humorless, with action scenes that lead nowhere and a seemingly superficial grasp on what makes the characters tick. I just don't get why Mr. Friedman is so popular. I've been so ... Read More

I picked this novel up on a whim long ago during my Trekkie phase, and I was pleasantly surprised by it. Not only does it bring back the memorable characters of TOS cast in TNG universe, it incorporates them and their motivations in a way that the shows never really did.
The story deals with Spock finally coming under Romulan capture during his lengthy task of reunification. Held by an ambitious governor, he is scheduled to be executed along with his followers, and thus the stage is ... Read More

This review is for the abridged audio version (2 tapes, 3+ hours). Jonathan Frakes did a great job reading this, he has a good voice, and does a credible job in recreating all of the characters. The story itself was very engaging, but disconnected in a few places (not bad, but it was obvious that some things ended up on the cuttingroom floor). The sound affects were good, never drowning out the narrater. Overall a good purchase, and I recommend it.

This is the best story to combine characters from both the original Star Trek series and The Next Generation. Jonathon Frakes gives an outstanding performance as he reads for characters like the surly Admiral McCoy, the stoic Ambassador Spock, and the irrepressible Captain Scott. His Picard, Data, and, of course, Riker are top notch, too.
The story involves Picard and crew on a diplomatic mission to return a group of captured Unificationists from the Romulans, who don't know Spock is among ... Read More
