Desciption
The Enterprise is on a peaceful mission at Starbase 12, and Spock is visiting aboard a Klingon vessel, when a mysterious phenomenon causes the Klingon ship to vanish. Spock's last message from the ship is cryptic, but frightening. It suggests that the Klingons are traveling into the past, hoping to kill one man who was decisive in the course of history, and thereby change it, destroying the Federation before it was born.
Review
OOOOOOOOOOhhhhhhhhh! This is bad. When one is reading a Star Trek novel, one expects Star Trek. It really is not that complicated folks! I am a simple geek. I expect that a novel heralding itself as a Star Trek novel to be speculative Science Fiction with the beloved characters of a favored TV program. This unfortunately for me is really a retrospective on Westerns of a bygone age. The references to Western TV shows and movies just went over my head. It apparently is a beloved book, and I hate shitting all over other people’s enjoyment, but I have to say that as a Star Trek novel this is a BIG avoid and warning to other readers. No thanks! This is not about Spock or McCoy! This character is NOT Spock, the main cast doesn't behave like the main cast, and this novel is not Star Trek.
