Publisher's summary

When Captain Kirk and a landing party from the U.S.S. Enterprise explore the ruins of an ancient civilization on the uninhabited planet Careta IV, they discover strange devices that appear to be windows. But the mysterious windows prove to be more than they seem when Kirk, Chekov, and two security guards enter them and disappear. Suddenly, Kirk and his team find themselves trapped in a strange alien environment and must fight with all their strength to survive and keep their sanity. Now Spock must locate his missing comrades and solve the windows' ancient mysteries before his captain and crewmates are lost forever...

Overall a good story

Overall a good story. Mr. Koenig is a great storyteller and portrays his costars nicely. My one note is that there is some skipping in chapters 1 and 2. Not bad, only a few seconds, but it sounds like a glitch in the recording.

No accent

Good book but story is forgettable. Narrator does good job, but it is strange having Chekov doing the talking, a bit distracting.

Captain Kirk as a 'Crab'??

Really, what a silly plot! I can think of a lot better adventures for our heroic captain that this exchange of bodies.

Would you try another book from V.E. Mitchell and/or Walter Koenig?

Probably, I am after all still a Star Trek Fan but Walter Koenig is not the most dynamic of readers.

Would you ever listen to anything by V.E. Mitchell again?

I'm sure I will sometime in the future.

Which character – as performed by Walter Koenig – was your favorite?

Obviously Checkov, he's not very convincing as any other character.

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Dissappointment and Disbelief in the outrages story line.

Any additional comments?

The story is simply a stretch even for Star Trek fans.
