2269 A.D. How did Chekov and Sulu get charged with treason and murder. With the help of the old Enterprise crew they must uncover the guilty parties.
An entertaining re-read.

It was a solid build up, a good use of the time period and setting to make a thrilled, but the pacing is off. What had been building gently unravels too easily and leads to a feeling of disappointment in the inevitable feeling of the ending.

Felt a lot like I was reading one of the episodes. A very good job of capturing the feel and actions of the characters. A quick read at only 275 pages, but an enjoyable one.

This was a pretty solid entry. My problem with the Lost Years books is that the team is scattered. I miss the group dynamic. It was nice for Sulu, Uhura and Chekov to get some play, but I missed the big three.

There are definitely better books in the Star Trek franchise. This has very clunky writing, of the kind the tries to explain every emotion and (even worse) every bit of technology and ends up distracting from the plot. But I do like it because it focuses on Sulu, Uhura and, especially, Chekov, my all time favorite. I also like the glimpses you get about how Security Academy works, and I find it endearing how the crew sticks together even though they're not together on a starship anymore. But this is definitely not one I'd reccomend to non-Trek fans. You have to be a *big* fan to get through this.
