DeathsAngel

Death's Angel.

Death stalks the corridors of the Enterprise. When Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock barely survived the mission to Delta Gamma IV, the deadly planet whose beautiful blue flowers destroy the mind and ravage the soul, Chief Medical Officer McCoy felt something was dangerously wrong — just how wrong, he didn't realize. For when the Enterprise takes on the alien members of a sensitive Federation diplomatic mission, the ambassadors are murdered one by one. The angel of death is visiting the ambassadors.

But when Mordreaux escapes, bursts onto the bridge and kills Captain Kirk, Spock must journey back in time to avert disaster — before it occurs.

CovenantoftheCrown

The Covenant of the Crown.

An Enterprise shuttle is forced to crash land in a violent storm on the barren planet Sigma 1212. Spock, McCoy, and Kailyn, the beautiful heir to the Shaddan throne, survive in the near disaster. Now, pursued by primitive hunters and a band of Klingon scouts, they must reach the mountain where the fabulous dynastic crown is hidden. With the help of Spock and McCoy, and her own fantastic mental powers, Kailyn must prove that she alone is the true heir to the throne. If they fail, they will open the door for Klingon takeover of the whole quadrant — and the galaxy's hope to live long and prosper will fall in the shadow of a cruel tyranny.
