The second of two books, the first being Dreadnought!, this one starts out on Kirk's schooner, where a vacationing Lt. Cmdr Piper's manning the helm with Cmdr Scott. Soon a platoon of StarFleet Security officers board the schooner and take Kirk and Scotty under arrest. It seems they're wanted for questioning in connection with the theft of transwarp, the Federation's most advanced propulsion system.
With the aid of Mr. Spock Dr. McCoy and several other Enterprise crew members, Piper begins a search for the scientists that developed the transwarp theory. The search leads them to a small isolated planet at the edges of known space, and a threat that not only endangers the Federation, but the entire known galaxy!
This one, while not as good as the first one, Dreadnought, was still a good one. The TOS fan's like this one better, the originals play a bigger part than last time. Even though it lacks a bit if you don't read Dreadnought, it's still a great book!
