Summary: Frakes is excellent as a dynamic reader
Review: As a diehard fan of the original Star Trek series, my favorite episodes of the TNG series are those that involve the characters of the original series. In this episode, Spock is inside the Romulan empire, the leader of a movement to unify the Romulans and Vulcans. The members of the movement are called unificationists and they are considered traitors by the Romulan government. Scotty steals an ancient starship and enters the empire in an attempt to rescue Spock. Admiral McCoy relieves Picard of command of the Enterprise and fouls things up, although in the end his actions rescue the Enterprise from certain destruction at the hands of the Romulan proconsul.
Jonathan Frakes is excellent as a reader of the story. He is able to create passable impressions for all of the characters in the tale. I was impressed with his command of the dramatic as he altered his voice to suit the circumstances. I listened to this tape while transporting children to events, and they learned very quickly that I was incommunicado while the tape was playing. It really kept my interest even though I had already read the book.

Summary: Crossover is the second best ST novel I have read
Review: Croosover is one of those books that you can't put down. (I finished it in two days.) It was a page turner that kept you the edge of your pants and you never wanted it to stop. The story revoles around spock. He is working on his mission for Unifiing (sp) the Vulcans and the Romulans. He gets captured by the romulans and he find out that it was because of a spy. (I'm not going to tell you who because it would ruin the book for you.) Starfleet finds this out and sends the Enterprise-D to negotiate the Unificationist's release. They send a rep to help. That rep is Admiral Leonard H. McCoy. Meanwhile Scotty (Who is flying around in his shuttle) overhears the messege from Starfleet and he divises his own rescue plan. It is the various plotlines and characters the keep you reading. I grade it *Burns a five on to the side of a cow* A FIVE! By the way, if you were wondering what the best ST novel I have read. It is "Fallen Heroes" (ST: DS9 book no. 5)

Summary: Crossover - Crossing over with Spock & MJ Friedman
Review: Crossover is definitely one of Michael Jan Friedman's best Trek stories. Given that he is the most prolific of the many Trek authors, he has attained a level in writing these stories that is both fluid and highly intriguing. Taking cues from a few different Star Trek The Next Generation episodes, where Star Trek The Original Series characters are brought into the twenty fourth century, Michael Jan Friedman carefully crafts a well told STNG story around them.The premise: As fans of Star Trek The Next Generation learned in "Reunification part II" Ambassador Spock decided to stay on Romulus to help teach members of the Reunification movement the ways of Vulcans. While on a trip to one of the Romulan Star Empires outlying worlds to instruct Reunificationists in the ways of Surak, Spock is captured by that world's governor. Fortunately for Spock, the governor doesn't initially know who he has in his possession. As Starfleet learns of Ambassador Spocks capture, they dispatch the Enterprise commanded by Captain Jean Luc Picard, to negotiate the release of the Reunificationists, while hopefully not revealing that Spock is among them. To help with this effort they send along Admiral McCoy, who has become quite the stodgy old curmudgeon. Listening in on this communiqué is Scotty. Scotty, with the help of the shuttlecraft gifted to him by Captain Picard, deftly swipes a Constitution class museum starship and heads off for the Romulan neutral zone himself. What ensues is certainly one of the best Star Trek hardbacks with a solid plot that is both intriguing and enthralling. I highly recommend this novel to any and all Star Trek fans, especially since the author cleverly blends members of the twenty third century Original Series into a Star Trek The Next Generation story. The abridged audio tape version, read by Jonathan Frakes is exceptional and well appreciated as it helps three hours go by quite quickly on the highway. Also to be appreciated is the cover art, which is better than a lot of others in this genre. {ssintrepid}

Summary: A Decent but Flawed Read
Review: Crossover was a good way to kill a lazy afternoon, but little else. The story was supposed to be a big event--Scotty, Spock, and mcCoy together with the NG crew. The story ranks as entrertaining, but implausible. McCoy has reached the unusual age of 145, and no one can stop talking about that. Scotty steals a 100 year old working ship from a museum (that happens to have a cloaking device, no less) and enters Romulan space. Picard won't mount a rescue operation for Spock, but will for Scotty. It's a mess if you think about it too hard. I give it three stars only because of the intermittant discussions between Spock and his Romulan students regarding pacifism v. totalitarianism. Very inciteful and interesting in a novel that is otherwise brain candy.

Summary: Great reunion of Legends
Review: Good Story, I love seeing Scotty back in action. Thanks to all involved for not killing him off. Good to see Bones still bickering too. Spock doesnt play much of a role in this story, but good to see him there.

Summary: This book rocks! Read it immediately!!!
Review: Hi, everyone. I've recently read Crossover, and you better read it too. It's a Star Trek book, basically about the reunion of Spock, McCoy and Scotty in the 24th century.
A lot of things happen in between, like Spock almost gets killed, Scotty steals a ship, and McCoy endangers a thousand
lives. All in a day's work. WHY ARE YOU STILL READING THIS? GO BUY THIS BOOK THIS INSTANT!

Summary: This was a very good novel.
Review: I believe that this is a very good novel. This is because that Friedman did a spetacular job at combing that characters from TNG and TOS, Even though some of the characterization and events were a little over the top and some event would not happen if Star Trek was real. These included the bridge of the Enterprise on the Yorktown and McCoy believing he can solve the situation by pulling rank.
