Changes: Crossroad

Revision as of 15:34, 3 October 2008

Kirk must stop a power-hungry alliance from destroying the Federation!

Summary

From the book jacket: The crew of the Nautilus, a battered starship of mysterious origin, is beamed aboard the starship Enterprise. The group claims they are freedom fighters from the future working to save the Federation from the Consilium—a group of corrupt power seekers.

But when the Nautilus crew members suddenly seize control of the USS Enterprise, and a starship from the future arrives to arrest the renegades, Kirk must separate his true allies from those who wish to destroy the Federation.
