Rating: Summary: Dull Review: I picked this one up thinking it might be an interesting insight as to what Vulcan children go through in their learning to suppress emotions. But what I found was something that was very droll and droned on. I always buy my Star Trek books, but this one was so disappointing, I sold it after I forced myself to finish it. The concept though was a fairly good one.

Rating: Summary: If you don't MIND the lack of logic, this isn't a bad MELD Review: If you're looking for THE definitive, unforgettable, LOGICAL book on Vulcan culture, today is not a good day to read this. As far as action goes, it's good, with a lot of assassins and interplanetary intrigue. However, Vornholt seems to be trying to cater to all tastes, and the book's weakest moments are when it tries to put Teska and Spock in a broader galactic framework. The scenes with the Romulans (especially the foaming-at-the-mouth pon farr one) don't mesh with the rest of the plot, and are VERY weak on logic. Read it if you like learning about a different culture, though; the Rigellian customs are both detailed and original
Rating: Summary: Not good but not bad Review: It's a bit floppy. It doesn't deserve four or five stars. The concept of having Spock babysitting a Vulcan child in this story is a bit dull.Only two reasons this book deserves three stars because 1) I loved the way how the author treats pardek's character. Too bad it's not the focus of the story. 2) I like the part about tribbles. It's humorous.
Rating: Summary: A nice change of pace for Spock Review: It's nice to see Spock as something else once in a while, & in the story we do. We all know that there is a part of Spock that has very deep feelings & he shows them for his niece in a quiet, reserved way...deeper & deeper each day, though. The ending is extemely touching
Rating: Summary: If you are a Spock fan, you might be disappointed. Review: Personally I did not care for this story. I thought the author was way off base showing the lack of logic of both Spock and his charge Teska. The story was to cute for Star Trek tastes
Rating: Summary: If only Spock would fall in love. Review: Spock was portrayed in a way that we hardly ever see him in. He was protecting his niece so that in the future she could marry a Romulan. I'm sure she wasn't that happy about it. Well Spock is good in the book and I liked the way that he softened a little, in regards to Teska. If you like Spock read the book, it might surprise you.
Rating: Summary: had soooo much potential Review: This book could have been great...however it's not. it has ton's of potential...plus it lays a little background as to Spock's trying to be an ambassidor with the Romulans later in life. However it just seems to leave plot points dangeling and the ending seems a bit rushed.
Rating: Summary: Not too bad Review: This one wasn't too bad. I enjoyed most of it, though it did have some twist and turn about it. I enjoyed the trek through the forest as Spock and his niece eluded the assassins sent to kill them. But I didn't like the ending all that much. The author should have done more with that. Not the best Trek book, but certainly not the worst.
