Too much jabbering referencing the movies. (Casual fans like me don't care, and avid fans already know.) Some very amateur bits of writing that another reader could have suggested needed help. Interesting Klingons. Our favorite original series characters were all there, but doing & thinking stereotypically.

I think I've finally outgrown the franchise. ( )

I enjoyed this. It fits in a unique spot between the last two Original Cast movies and actually sets up film VI. It uses a two person away team which was not as common in the series and made for an interesting pairing of Kirk and Sulu with Klingons as partners in a mission of mutual interest. The characters and storylines worked well for me and I thought it felt authentic more so than several other Trek novels I have read as far as the feel. It also had Spock, McCoy, and Scotty in lesser roles than Sulu, Chekov and Uhura which was a nice switch for using those characters. If you enjoy Star Trek novels, you'll enjoy this, the last numbered novel in the TOS series. ( )

As the Federation and Klingon Empire are embarking upon peace talks, Kirk and a Klingon captain, Koloth, embark upon a joint mission to rescue Federation crewmembers secretly held on a prison planet for eight years. Standard story, but for the conclusion which serves to cement Kirk's ingrained enmity against all things Klingon, to Spock and McCoy's disappointment. ( )
