Publisher Description
James T. Kirk is the youngest man to be promoted to the rank of captain in Federation history. His crew consists of a first officer who finds him impetuous; a chief engineer who finds him arrogent; a chief medical officer who finds him trifling; and a helmsman who wants a transfer.
But the young crew, which would later become the legendary space explorers, quickly puts aside their differences when a monstrous starship appears on their nascent flight path.

"This was not the greatest stand alone book, but was enjoyable if you like the original Star Trek series, which I do. It gives a fun beginning to the original crew of the Enterprise, and sticks well to the developed personalities of the original crew. "

" What a fantastic origin story. It was a fun read! "

" This is a fun look at the pre-Star Trek crew of the Enterprise. "
— doug, 12/10/2013 -
" I expected too much of this book, there's nothing in particular to pick on, but I felt like there was a predictable formula at work. "
— Amanda, 11/19/2013 -
" One of the deeper and better written Trek novels. Not one of the "numbered" novels which are merely of a TV episode scope. "
— Tony, 11/17/2013 -
" this is one of the worst books by a good writer. THERE IS A FLYING HORSE ON THE ENTERPRISE. DO NOT READ THIS BOOK "
— Bain, 10/31/2013 -
" Very difficult to get started with but it picks up once the ship goes out on its first mission. Still a slightly unsatisfying finale after all the character build up they did for the villain. "

" While I mostly read Star Trek to gather info on Spock, there was quite a bit of Yeoman Rand history I found surprising. "

" As a kid, this was one of my favourite books. After re-reading it as an adult, I found it to be fairly idiotic. Weak plot, weak writing, weak connections... I still have wonderful childhood memories of it, so I would say that it is great for a younger audience and leave it at that. "
— Justin, 8/27/2010 -
" The "first" voyage of the Enterprise, before the five year mission of the series. An interesting look into the history of the Enterprise Crew. "
— Charles, 5/11/2010 -
" Solid all around. And it offers a handful of options for spinoffs. McIntyre has as good a handle on the Star Trek universe as any of the writers in the phalanx. "
