Synopsis

While on the U.S.S. Excelsior, Captain Sulu receives top priority orders to proceed by shuttlecraft to Starbase Three. He is to act as the Federation's envoy to a historic peace ceremony between the Krikiki and the Den-Kai -- the two dominant, warring races in that sector. Sulu's role is to hand over a young Krikiki prince to the Den-Kai as a symbol of peace, but once Sulu learns of the physical hardships and isolated life that are to befall the prince, he is faced with one of the most difficult choices of his career: carry out his orders and protect another being's life only to see it taken away, or interfere and risk destroying the fragile peace, and violate the Prime Directive in the process.

Goodreads review by Donavon on March 12, 2020

Of the three "Sulu Adventures", this is the best story, though there is so much alien singing that it is hard to get through.......more

Goodreads review by Piperpinemarten on October 02, 2021

First and foremost this is more of a play made up of monologues and soliloquies and George Takei is one of half a dozen voice actors telling this story. George Takei is a good voice actor with a good emotional range. It is a shame he cant do more of the voices in the book as he can do other characte......more

Goodreads review by Rob on November 11, 2021

George Takei's dulcet tones enliven an average adventure for Captain Sulu. Aside from computer voices, the occasional translated alien voice and an annoying Admiral, this is a Solo Sulu adventure and not quite like I was expecting (Big Finish's style of work). It works but only just.......more
