Customer Reviews

Awsome!

Cadet Kirk was a really cool story. I never thought he would be by the rules since he probebly broke every rule in Starfleet as a captian or admiral. Also I never thought Spock would ever approve of something Kirk does espesually because they've only met up a few times and Kirk is younger than Spock. That's part of why I enjoyed this book and if you want to go back to the beginning this book is a good resource.

phenom!

The book was a great adventure which takes us back to where it all began. Three raw cadets attempting to work out their differences and triumph in the best traditon of Star Trek lore.

Kirk was a kid?

The first adventrue of Kirk, Spock and McCoy. This book was made for kids, but it does apeal to adults too. To see the beginnings of friendship and leadership by Kirk was good. Kirk was by book, and it was surprising. McCoy was witty and Spock was somewhat solid. The three of them trapped on a planet trying to thrawt a plan to kidnap a popular doctor. This book resembles novel Trek books quite well. I liked this book and I'm sure other adults will too.

Another great story by Carey!

It was a great charcter ddevelopment book. Not many people could imagine that Kirk used to be so by - the - book. After all he has broke every rule in Starfleet and has been demoted. Still, the story turned out nicely. And the way Kirk tricked Spock, that was genius. There was only one thing, if McCoy is an ensign now it would have been a year or more between books but Kirk is still a first year cadet. Did he flunk? Another five star job by Todd C. Hamilton.
