Summary: The New Adventures Begin here.
Review: The five year mission has ended, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise has moved on to other assignments and been promoted. Life has moved on. Then, from the depths of space, comes a huge cloud with incredibly destructive powers, and it is on a course for Earth. Once again James T. Kirk, now an Admiral, must lead the U.S.S. Enterprise on an incredible adventure.This novelization of the plodding movie that detractors call Star Trek - The Motionless Picture was ghostwritten for Roddenberry by Alan Dean Foster, the man who penned the unoriginal concept story the script was based on. Although little more than the script in narrative form, Foster gives the tale a sense of urgency and tension that the film sorely lacked. It also reads better than it plays. Still it's strictly for Trek buffs.

Summary: Better than the movie
Review: This book is a must for every fan of the movie. It actually starts some time before the movie scenario, showing Kirk pursuing the command of the Enterprise at Starfleet. It reveals the identities of the 2 people caught in the transporter accident and their connection to Kirk, along with more backstory on Spock's adventures. And it cuts out the long boring trip through V'jer's special effects cloud. Can't beat that!
