I was excited to read David Mack's take on the reboot universe because I've been a big fan of his other ST books but I have to admit this one fell short of the mark for me. I found it unengaging (and frankly lackluster) and the characterizations did not feel genuine (yes, we're talking about fictional characters but if you've consumed as much ST media as I have you'll get what I mean). At any rate, I set it aside and had no desire to return to it. I'd recommend if you're looking for a David Mack ST book to read that instead you pick up his Destiny series which is EXCELLENT.

An original novel based on the thrilling new Star Trek movies! Based on the "Kelvin Universe" movie saga! Captain James T. Kirk and the Enterprise crew escort Spock's father, Ambassador Sarek of Vulcan, to a dilithium-rich planet called Akiron. They arrive to find this world under siege by creatures that some of the planet's denizens believe are demons. Sarek orders Kirk to abandon the mission, but the young captain won't turn his back on people in danger. After a harrowing encounter with the dark-energy "demons," Kirk's belief in a rational universe is challenged by a mystic who insists that it wasn't coincidence that brought Kirk to Akiron, but the alien equivalent of a Karmic debt. Meanwhile, aboard the Enterprise, Sarek's young Vulcan aide L'Nel has a sinister agenda--and its chief objective appears to be the cold-blooded murder of Spock! No library descriptions found.
