Book description
While testing a new shielding device, the
U. S.S. Enterprise
TM is caught in the middle of a Klingon/Romulan battle. The Enterprise
crew rescues a lifepod, and they are confronted by a Klingon who claims
to know nothing of human existence. Convinced the Klingon is telling the
truth, Captain Kirk hurries to Starfleet Headquarters in search of
answers. But upon arriving on Earth, the Starship Enterprise
crew finds that Earth is a vast jungle-like paradise where large,
reptillian animals rule, with no signs of human life anywhere. Kirk must
travel to the past in search of the key to the mystery, or face the
destruction of the human race. Diane Carey is the author of the
bestselling INVASION!:FIRST STRIKE and numerous other Star Trek novels
including episode tie-ins from The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine and
Voyager, amongst them THE WAY OF THE WARRIOR, TRIALS AND TRIBBLEATIONS
and WHAT YOU LEAVE BEHIND (all DS9), both DS9 volumes of the bestselling
DOMINION WAR quartet, EQUINOX and ENDGAME (both Voyager).
