Synopsis

After the end of the EnterpriseTM's five-year mission, Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, and Dr. McCoy struggle to establish new lives apart from each other and the starship. The newly-promoted Admiral Kirk is placed in charge of a specially-created Starfleet division and attempts to defuse a critical hostage situation; Mr. Spock, who, in the midst of a teaching assignment on Vulcan, finds the one thing he least expected; and Dr. McCoy, whose unerring instinct for trouble lands him smack in the middle of an incident that could trigger an interstellar bloodbath.

About J.M. Dillard

J.M. Dillard grew up coddled in the wilds of central Florida. After leaving her mother’s sheltering arms, she left Florida to reside in various locales, including Washington, DC, Vermont, and Southern California. She herself now coddles a two-hundred-pound husband and two ninety-pound Labradors, all of whom are well-trained but persist in believing themselves to be lapdogs. She is the author of a plethora of Star Trek books; as Jeanne Kalogridis (her evil alter-ego), she is the author of the acclaimed Diaries of the Family Dracul trilogy, and the historical fantasy The Burning Times.

Just back from their five year mission on the Enterprise and now contemplating their future plans, McCoy, Spock and Kirk get tangled up in a plot involving an evil ancient Vulcan "wizard" and the Romulans. The main focus here is McCoy, which is a nice change from most ST stories, and the latent tens......more

Goodreads review by Jerry on March 05, 2021

I'll be honest: I prefer Star Trek in television form. Not only are the stories better, but, the content is usually cleaner. My introduction to space opera was Star Wars, where the films had few if any profanities, which led to serious shock when the characters in Wrath of Khan shot off at the mouth......more
