Publisher's summary

As the end of the twentieth century nears, an asteroid is hurtling toward Earth. When it hits, the impact will result in the end of all life on the planet.

Ambassador Spock travels back in time to subtly warn Earth's inhabitants of impending doom while calling into question humanity's priorities. However, before the truth is told, the all-powerful being, Q, appears and reminds Spock that he is prohibited from interfering in Earth's history. Besides, Q doesn't see mankind as something worth saving.

This initial encounter between the two legendary characters explodes into a battle of wits as Spock cleverly befuddles Q with his own words. As barbs are exchanged, and humanity's flaws and wonders are laid bare, Spock's logic just may convince Q that humans are indeed a species worthy of salvation; but will he be too late?

©Leonard Nimoy (P)1999 Simon & Schuster

There's an all-important message for everyone

Over many years characters stick in your mind, Q and Spock are two of those characters. Legends in their own bathrooms. Positively humorous, undeniably witty with an all-important message for everyone to heed. So pay attention to the wit.

What an excellent story!

I am so glad that I listened to this story, which I never knew even existed. well worth the listen if you are into star trek, Leonard nimoy, or John delancey. I am so happy that they were the ones actually narrating the story!

Short but funny

Title says it all. This is a short but funny interaction.

If you like Trek, you'll like this exchange.

I wish it was longer.

Cosmic Fun

Trek fans will enjoy this TOS & TNG crossover. Nimoy & de Lancie are in impeccable form as Spock & Q. Highly recommended. 👍
