Synopsis

Although Kirk appeared to perish at the conclusion of Star Trek® Generations™, the big national bestseller, The Return, revealed the amazing story of Kirk's resurrection. Now, William Shatner brings his distinctive blend of talents as an actor, writer, director, and producer to continue the saga of Jim Kirk's second life -- and to reunite one of the greatest teams of any future century...START TREK: AVENGER.

A lethal virogen, inimical to all conventional forms of planet life, threatens the entire Federation with starvation and dissolution. In this moment of Starfleet's greatest need, Captain James T. Kirk, long believed dead, embarks on a desperate quest to find the true source of the mysterious virogen.

Elsewhere in the galaxy, Ambassador Spock, his diplomatic efforts stalled by the spread of famine and chaos, returns to his native world of vulcan to confront a mystery of a deeply personal nature -- an investigation that soon leads him to a reunion with a long-lost friend he never expected to see again. Kirk and Spock, together again, must join forces to save a new generation from an awesome menace unleashed by a ruthless interplanetary conspiracy.

Full of high adventure and powerful drama, STAR TREK: AVENGER is an engrossing new Star Trek epic -- and a moving tale of past memories and new hope that only WIlliam Shatner could tell.

I feel like I am supposed to write something to compell other readers to want to read this book, or any book that I finish and get this review window. Most of the time I have no problem coming up with what I want to say or tell how I felt about the story. I am not going to write a review or say what......more

This is probably my favourite of the 5 books in this series i’ve read despite a lot of small issues. There are a lot of similarities between this and the previous volume, not in terms of story exactly but with the sortof ligaments of the plot. The way the characters are separated for the mystery elem......more

Goodreads review by Chris on April 17, 2014

Enjoyable--but not as enjoyable as Shatner's first two novels in this series. The action was fun and interesting. The tie ins of canon Trek lore were fun and added to the overall plot. My only real problem is with the glorification of Kirk at the cost of other beloved characters (which was also pres......more
