I downloaded William Shatner's novel early this year, in the first flush of my reinvigorated Star Trek crush, and took a year plucking up the courage to test the author(s) narrative flair. Whatever the arrangement between Shatner and his ghost writers, this is a readable addition to the many and multiform range of ST novels, paying fan service to 'Spirk' and Tarsus IV, and with a guest appearance from the Enterprise herself, but I was hardly blown away. The plot is similar to the rebooted movie version of the original series, with a plucky, rebellious Kirk fighting his Starfleet destiny and meeting up with Spock in his teens, and Shatner still has an intuitive sense of his iconic character, yet I still prefer the implied canonical backstory of the show over this teen adventure. I'm not exactly devastated that parts two and three of the planned trilogy never came about! Most of William Shatner's other Star Trek novels are written in the same pretentiously grandiose staccato as his acting style. But this one actually isn't badly written; my speculation is that by this time Shatner's co-writers have wrested more creative input from him. I found the storyline intriguing also, being a prequel that shows how a young Kirk and Spock (17 and 19, respectively), both dealing with teen and parental angst, reluctantly join forces (their first meeting) to thwart an attempt by Kodos the Executioner to steal dilithium from Starfleet. The Reeves-Stevens creative team has a nice touch for bringing in obscure references to the Star Trak literary canon without beating the reader over the head with their Trekky acumen. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
