Book description
After saving Earth from the threat of V'Ger, James T. Kirk is called
again to the final frontier. His new mission: to lead a valiant group of
settlers to a distant world, to defend the struggling colony from alien
threats, and to explore the diverse mysteries and dangers of a strange
new Earth!
Far from the Federation, a newly discovered M-class world has been
eyed as a potential home by a group of hardy and determined colonists.
StarĂ¾eet can spare only one starship to escort the would-be settlers
on their perilous voyage, but that ship is none other than the
legendary Starship Enterprise , commanded by the most
well-known captain in the quadrant. Now Kirk finds himself responsible
for the lives of 30,000 men, women, and children -- a task that grows
all the more difficult when the expedition is caught in the middle of
an ancient feud between two dangerous alien races!
