Star Trek/Planet of the Apes: The Primate Directive by Scott Tipton, David Tipton

3.0

This story story fits into the Planet of the Apes narrative and takes place after Planet of the Apes and before Beneath Planet of the Apes.

The klingons have discovered a way to travel to another dimension, where Earth is ruled by Apes! Captain Kirk and the USS Enterprise discover this portal and find themselves on a different Earth, where they meet some familiar faces, Taylor, Cornelius and Zira.

The story is very much a TOS story. Kirk even gets his shirt torn in a fight. Oh yes, death of a red shirt as well.

The story is ok. My gripe is none of the cover art reflects the story. Minor gripe though. The story is well written and they kept to the timeline so it could be enjoyed without causing any continuity errors.
