Publisher Description

Just after the events of Star Trek Generations, on the planet Veridian III, ambassador Spock comes to the humble cairn, or stones, that marks the grave of James Kirk. But he is not granted time to ponder the passing of his best friend. The Borg and the Romulan Empire have a use for Kirk, and with some mysterious alien science they resurrect the fallen captain, who they hope will give them the edge they need to destroy their greatest enemy, Jean-Luc Picard. It will take the combined powers of both generations, from Spock and McCoy to Data and Riker, to meet this almost unthinkable new threat.

"Borg. V'Ger. Ambassador Spock. Admiral McCoy. Post-Generations Enterprise crew. USS Defiant and Doctor Bashir. Kirk rising from the grave after being offed by Malcolm Macdowell. This is crazy enjoyable whackadoo fanwank "written" by Shatner and written by the Reeves-Stevens. Enjoy!"

    " 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. "

    " 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. "
