I have the pleasure of knowing Bill personally and have spent time with both he and his wife on horseback and on set while they were shooting a film along the border in AZ. What people don't know is that Bill is just as adventureous in real life (or more so) than any of the characters he plays on stage, screen, or can ever can be captured in a written work of fiction. This novel is in my opinion his best work (paired with his co-authors). It's a shame the big movie studios never optioned this one for the screen.

great story!

Shatner does a great job... but he should try to change his voice up just a bit more for the different voices .... really have to pay attention when everything sounds like it was said by Kirk! lol.

spectacular use of the Star Trek Universe

Shatner has exceeded all my expectations and achieved my impossible desire for Pjcard and Kirk to collaborate again. I know the remaining stories wil not fail.

good story

good story, picking up where Star Trek: Generations, very original story with a nice call back to another Trek in the end.

Shatner's Narration

I was easily able to follow the story, and impressed with how I could relates to the various characters. Shatner's narration was great as well.

I truly loved it!<br />The tie to V-ger was genius.

It brought together the old and new masterfully...and solve the question of the Borg origin. Well done!

Interesting story, good performance

What did you love best about Star Trek: The Return (Adapted)?

The storyline has a few holes, but overall- a good story that I wish they made into a movie when it was still possible (actors' ages, missing the late L. Nimoy).

What about William Shatner’s performance did you like?

Shatner is a great and passionate performer, although all characters sounded much like Kirk, unavoidably.

No green blooded hob goblin

Pure Trek storyline. Kirk triumphs again. Worthy of a sequel. Bring it Bill Shatner.

great book!

another great Star Trek story, and this time narrated by William shatner Captain James t Kirk himself! I really enjoyed this story, it was nice to hear Captain Kirk in another Star Trek adventure. that was never shown on television or in the movies. well worth the listen!

Shatner's Best By Far

I really didn't care for the movie "Star Trek-Generations". I'll go as far as saying that I like Star Trek 5 even better than "Generations"
I didn't like the way they killed off Kirk. If Spock, Scotty and Bones can still be alive in the future during STNG, why not Kirk? This book should have been the next movie in the Star Trek franchise after Generations. It picks up right after the events of that movie and it's no cheesy resurrection story, it was well thought out and executed. This is one of the top two best Star Trek audio books of all time by any author.(Go ahead and look it up)
The sound effects and music really add to the experience and Shatner does a good job with the different voice characterizations. A must listen for any Star trek fan.
