Ratings and reviews

I am a Star Trek fan from the original series all the way through to the latest movie. I have always liked time travel stories and a fan of ST Voyager especially after they left Kazon space and introduced 7 of 9. I think he captured her character well. Revisiting missions from the original series was fun and using time travel was an interesting way of doing it. I really liked this book and give it a solid 4 out of 5 stars..

STAR TREK has always been one of my favorite sci-fi movies of all times. I have not bought the STAR TREK e-book yet but I believe it will be a best selller e-book.

Non stop action, and favorite characters. There are some minor holes in the plot but that aside great read!
