Kirk: The Star to Every Wandering by David R. George III

1.0

I read this Star Dreck novel because I didn't feel up to reading anything more challenging. Two reading days wasted. It's definitely not one of the better Star Dreck novels. Besides the writing skill being unimpressive, the plot is a cop-out: the back cover promises that Kirk will deal with his angst over losing the love of his life, but it's largely about his convoluted plan to clean up some temporal damage he accidentally caused while helping Jean-Luc Picard in the movie Star Trek: Generations. The only idea that interested me is a minor plot detail. Many different Star Dreck authors have used the Guardian of Forever, and have all had their particular ideas of what happens to it after the television episodes. This author posits the most interesting idea I've yet seen: the Guardian of Forever is gone, the Klingons having destroyed it because they feared its use as a weapon.

Anyway, the book is going into my recycling bin. Not recommended.
