Ratings and reviews

Haven't seen the movie yet but this story was awesome. Its not very long and it starts fast and ends strong. Very good read. Highly recommended from this guy. And I'm not even a fan boy of the Trek

Trekies and newbies alike will love this book. Its a good plot and it brings out the sense of humanity and familiarity with each character weather your a tried and true trekie or a novice to star trek.

As a Trekkie, I am excited and can't wait to see the movie I'm sure it is better than the book. However the book is awesome and well written.
