![]() No n'hi ha cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. A quaint little story with the feel of the old Star Trek but set in the world of the new. There are so many implausibilities and lantern-hangings that it can't really be taken seriously, but then that was always the charm of proper 1960s Star Trek. ( ![]() A quaint little story with the feel of the old Star Trek but set in the world of the new. There are so many implausibilities and lantern-hangings that it can't really be taken seriously, but then that was always the charm of proper 1960s Star Trek. In this novel, Friedman has three former members of the original Enterprise becoming involved with the Captain of the current Enterprise. When Spock is captured with a group of Romulans interested in learning the way of Surak, Starfleet Command is concerned over the knowledge that Spock would be able to give to the Romulans so Picard is tasked with, somehow, extricating Spock from the hands of the Romulans without giving away who he was and as a guide, they sent along an extremely crotchety Admiral McCoy who sees Picard as a weakling as he negotiates a deal. Meanwhile, Captain Scott also hears about Spock's capture and he also decides to do something about it. Surely with all these forces working in his favour, it's only a matter of time before Spock is freed. Surely... Friedman is a decent author and for the most part he captures the rather disparate natures of the characters though I felt that Dr McCoy's anger was over the top given both his rank and his main occupation in Starfleet. Two great series meet. It is a wonderful read. A fascinating Star Trek crossover book, set in the "Next Generation" time, where Spock has been captured in the Romulan Empire while leading the Unification movement to reunite the Vulcans and their sundered cousins, the Romulans. An aged McCoy (145) takes over the effort to rescue Spock when he decides that Picard is too hesitant. Scotty is also a major player here, in a fascinating and well-conceived blending of the first two editions of the Star Trek concept. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
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.
