Template:Realworld Enterprise to the rescue! Kirk must save both a planet and McCoy's daughter!
Summary
- From the book jacket
- Massive computer malfunctions are plaguing the Enterprise when Kirk suddenly receives a shocking message from Starfleet Command: Centaurus has been bombed and annihilated; thousands are dead. Give whatever help you can. Centaurus is a beautiful, peaceful planet, home to many Humans – including McCoy's daughter Joanna.
- The crew risks beaming down to investigate. But Kirk is thrown into a deadly struggle between violent enemy terrorists and vengeful Centaurians. Now Lt. Uhura, left alone in command, must jeopardize the crippled Enterprise to save Centaurus, Kirk – and Joanna McCoy!.
- Excerpts of copyrighted sources are included for review purposes only, without any intention of infringement.
Background Information
- Though the stardate implies the events take place after Star Trek: The Motion Picture, the ranks and cover image suggest a date during the five-year mission. Furthermore Uhura taking command of the Enterprise places this novel before "The Lorelei Signal" (2269), but at least two years after "Court Martial" (2267) as per references to Samuel Cogley.
