The beginning to a great saga.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I would recommend starting the Section 31 books with this one. In the DS9 episode "Inquisition" we were informed that Section 31 was on Starfleet's original charter, and was taken off. This book fills in the gap, giving the reader a window to see what happened in Kirk's day, and how the organization started. The storyline is engaging and you can't put it down! The Section 31 series shows what happens when people begin to think the ends always justify the means, and why that is completely unacceptable in a successful society. Once again, Trek has paralleled our current world with the world of the future. This book is the beginning of an excellent series, a must read for any Trek fan.
Top notch original cast story

Few Star Trek novels have done a better job capturing the mysterious and slightly icy mood of the original series, a la first season, than this one. Highest possible recommendation.
The second best of the Section 31 series
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I have found that most of the best Trek novels do one thing: they elaborate on already established novels and/or television episodes. This one does and also foreshadows the events of "For the Earth is Hollow and I have Touched the Sky." We see again the Romulan Commander whom Spock was drawn to in "Enterprise Incident," although she has never been given a name. We also learn about Dr. McCoy's fatal disease. However, in previous novels, didn't Bones have a daughter named Joanna? I know that the novels are not generally considered to be part of the overall Trek cannon but would it not be appropriate to include details as important as the existance of one's children in such an important time in one's life? Especially when the doctor felt that he had no family to tell about his illness.
Excellent Read, especially for Kirk fans

Very well done. Really captured the flavor of the original series as well as giving new insight to the character of Capt. Kirk. Plus the mystery of Section 31 is always fun especially for "Conspiracy Theory" minded folks.
Section 31 Cloak
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Scientists missing, mysterious disaster, cloaking technology and sinister underlying purposes... all good for a Kirk adventure. Now, Kirk must save the Alpha Quadrant again. I found the book to be an easy and enjoyable read, bringing back some of the adventure when Kirk first stole the Romulan cloaking device in the Original TV series.As the Section 31 book series touts "No Law. No Conscience. No Stopping Them". But they haven't met Captain James T. Kirk.Read it and enjoy.
