About this listen

Eighteen years ago the Starship Enterprise thwarted an alien invasion from another universe, and Captain Robert April took possession of the interdimensional transfer device that made it possible. Since then each captain of the Enterprise, from Christopher Pike to James T. Kirk, has guarded this secret with his life.

Now Romulan agents have succeeded in stealing the device and are using it to banish Ambassador Sarek and Councillor Gorkon to an unknown realm in the midst of their groundbreaking Federation-Klingon peace negotiations. With time running out as interstellar war looms in one universe - and alien forces marshal in another - will Captain Kirk and his crew preserve the tenuous peace and reclaim the key between the dimensions?

A wild ride

This the third and final book was just as good. And I still could not see how this would end.
Think I listen to it again 9/10

terrific reader

Robert petkoff's ability to mimic the voices from the original series is spot on. This story is typical Star Trek: great if you're in to it, otherwise a bit cliché. However, it IS pure escapism and the reading is engaging; it's easy to lose oneself for a number of hours without needing to pay close attention.

excellent...... 😎

sometimes you can read or listen to a Star Trek book and think, "is that it", but not this one, i enjoyed it throughly ....
and you have the rare joy of it being unabridged ....... i wont give away any plot twists, but surfice to say its well worth getting ...... 😎

Irritating narrator

A good story - I've listened to all 3 parts now and have to say that although the narration is pretty good overall, I found myself becoming more and more irritated by his constant inability to pronounce the word 'her', whenever referring to any female in the story.
The narrators accent sounds quite American - quite normal.
So WHY does he always say HEAR, or HERE (Same pronunciation.) instead of HER.

"She went into HEAR room and removed HEAR shoes..." etc etc...

Once noticed, you can't fail to HEAR it...

Ok, not great but good conclusion

The awkwardness and forced natured of the ‘hit’/‘ze’ supposed gender neutrality is distracting. This third part also suffered from numerous skips in playback and skips in the sound. The narrator’s attempts at different voices is ok but sometimes it is hard to tell them apart.

Tedious

The other two novels in the series were great, this is slow and ponderous and way too long.

I am halfway through and I have given up.
