Star Trek: The Return Audiobook

" Shatner's ego at it most inflated. He brings Kirk back to life and has him defeat the enemies of The Next Generation. Only the first of many books where Kirk is the savior of the future generation. A good read though. "

" Wm. S' keeps Star Trek alive for all us Trekkies! Keep to re-read... "

" Self indulgent Mary Sue or Gary Stu Trek. "

" This book is o.k. The storytelling takeaway here is you should never bring back a beloved character who was killed in a previous story. I can't think of a single time that has gone well. "

" I couldn't put it down. I love TOS & TNG crossovers. "

" Good story. Spock's a pimp. "

" not bad...if a person just wants to read in the star trek universe...I thought it was kind of funny that it seemed he couldn't let Kirk die. "

" fun little romp! "

" Shatner brings himself back. Only Shatner can resurrect himself! "

" This one was good. Really good. So good, I can't tell you just how good it actually was. "

" I'm a Star Trek/Star Wars nerd, I admit it. "

" A great story of Kirk's resurrection. It was nice how Shatner includes a lot of Star Trek characters in a great story. This story isn't perfect, but good for any fan. "

" Thought the Shatnerverse was a fun place to read but definietly not a place for true blue trek fans. But if you love Kirk then check the whole series out. "

" Nice to see the different characters all together but Kirk is too good for it to be fun in a realistic way. "

" Great Star Trek Novel, wish they would have made this into a movie instead of Generations. "

" very good resurrection story for captain kirk. "

" A fun little book worth buying used if you're a fan. Shatner turns Kirk into a villain -- what a kick to read what fun the icon has with his iconic character. "

" William Shatner is one of my favorite actors. Not so good as an author. "

" yes..I know...but it was...great. I actually really liked the story and William Shatner can write! I never actually thought about who was writing it because the story was fast paced and intense. "

" So good. So what if this whole series flies in the face of canon? I look at these books as fictional stories that would be told about Kirk within the ST Universe. The fiction within the fiction, you see. "

" I can't help but wonder ('though I've read a few of his books) if William Shatner has had help with the writing of these books ['cause they're very good! This was so very good--I could imagine it as a GREAT movie! "

" A wonderful read. I loved the characterization of the young Spock and Kirk. Especially the background interactions between Lady Amanda and Sarek. "

" It was a fun read, but don't expect continuity here - it definitely is the author's "unique personal vision." "

" Another amazing Star Trek novel by William Shatner. This is how Shatner envisions Kirk and Spock met. It is considered outside the movie and regular Star Trek universe. Fantastic and fun book. "

" Big fun candy reading for anyone who is a Star Trek fan! Just what my brain needed right now! "

" I liked reading about young Kirk and Spock but halfway through got bored.. "

" I really rather enjoyed this. The plot was well-developed and seemed - to a relative Star Trek novice, anyway - mostly faithful to Original Series canon. It was a quick read, but worth it if you are a fan of young Kirk or Spock. "

" In general, I enjoy Mr. Shatner's works, but this one did not live up to what I've come to expect from him. "

" It reads like any of the hundreds of Spock and Kirk meet as teenagers fanfiction floating around the internet complete with massive amounts of angst and unrealistic even for Star Trek feats. It's not an awful read, but it's not great either and the premise has been done much better before. "

" I thought this was really good. And it has striking similarities with the new Star Trek movie, though this book came out way before the movie....hmmmm "
