Once
known as the hero of Anaxar and a role model for Captain Kirk,
Garth was a legend until brutal injuries left him criminally
insane. Supposedly cured, he sets out to repair his crippled
reputation. On a new mission Garth faces the ultimate test
- can he keep his head on the very planet where he faced his
darkest hour?...
Garth
of Izar sees one-time
Star Fleet hero Captain Garth rebuilding his life in a universe
that no longer trusts him. At the battle of Anaxar he helped
protect the Federation from collapse but a serious accident
on Antos IV almost kills him. Fortunately, the inhabitants
helped him rebuild his body using cellular metamorphosis -
his mind, however, remained broken.
Rehabilitation
ended with his temporary escape but time and further help
appear to have eased him back to sanity. He no longer sees
himself as lord of the universe. Now
apparently his old self again, thanks to some experimental
medication, he must help Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise
on a diplomatic mission - a mission that requires him to return
to Antosia, the planet where the trouble all started.
This
novel captures the atmosphere of the original series quite
well but it all feels a little too familiar to be really interesting.
If you like your Trek traditional then this one's for
you but for more intrepid readers it might just not take flight.
