I managed to read this book through in a single day, mainly so I wouldn't have to go back to it later. At first, the concept of Kirk as an Ensign was interesting and I do like stories involving Romulans and Vulcans, but I quickly became disappointed.
As several other reviewers have stated, the author's grasp of appropriate word usage is problematic at times. Usually I rush through paragraphs, but sometimes words catch you like a speed bump and you have to go back and reread a section ... Read More

I, like many other reviewers, don't expect a lot from Star Trek novels and read them mainly because I have been a fan of the show since childhood and because they aren't particularly demanding to follow.

The most I liked (as a K/S-Shipper) was the special bond between Kirk and Spock. It seems like the author took that fact as something you must not discuss about it, because it was seen all over the years in ... Read More

My expectations for a trek novel usually aren't too high, afterall if anyone has watched the shows and movies enough they should be able to echo the characters on paper pretty well.
This book involves an alternate universe, that is not the Mirror Mirror one. The romulans in an attempt to rid themselves of the Federation have gone back in time and killed the founders of the idea of having a Federation (this is even before first contact). The deaths of these three men alter history. It affects ... Read More
