Description

The Day of Honor is celebrated throughout the Klingon Empire. But every tradition had to being somewhere... Signi Beta is an M-class planet ideal for farming. The Federation wants Signi Beta, but the Klingon Empire has the stronger claim. Captain Kirk hates to lose the planet, especially to his old adversary, Commander Kor. Their mutual antagonism turns into an uneasy alliance, however, when yet another alien fleet attacks both the Klingons and the "U.S.S. Enterprise." Now Kirk and Kor must show more rely on each other's honor -- or none of them may survive to wage their war again. show less

Solid adventure of Kirk and co. having to help Klingons defend a from an aerial invasion. The main blunder is that the fan favorite Kor is in this but is injured and out of the picture for most of the novel. On the plus side we get to see some lower ranked crew take the spotlight. It’s a lot less cerebral than most Trek but still scratches the original series itch.
Kirk and Commander Kor of the Klingons compete for an M-class planet ideal for farming, but the two form an uneasy alliance when another alien fleet attacks the Klingons and the Enterprise. A good adventure, with an interesting relationship of long-standing respect and hostility between Kirk and Kor.
