Story
The final frontier erupts into chaos as vast quantities of a rare energy source are discovered beneath the surface of Baldur-3, a remote planet beyond the outer fringes of Federation space. Now, an old-fashioned “gold rush” is underway as a flood of would-be prospectors, from countless worlds and species, races toward the planet to stake their claim. Captain James T. Kirk and the crew of the Starship Enterprise are dispatched to deal with the escalating crisis...which lies on the other side of a famously perilous region of space known as the Antares Maelstrom.

Story
After the end of the Enterprise™'s five-year mission, Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, and Dr. McCoy struggle to establish new lives apart from one another and the starship. The newly promoted Admiral Kirk is placed in charge of a specially created Starfleet division and attempts to defuse a critical hostage situation; Mr. Spock, who, in the midst of a teaching assignment on Vulcan, finds the one thing he least expected; and Dr. McCoy, whose unerring instinct for trouble lands him smack in the middle of an incident that could trigger an interstellar bloodbath.

Publisher's Summary
On a planet code-named Gateway stands a mysterious portal to the past, the Guardian of Forever. Spock, Kirk, and McCoy have just returned from a voyage through the gateway with a young man named Zar - Spock's own son from ancient Sarpeidon! But while Spock and the brilliant, primitive youth try to bridge a gap of centuries and cultures, Gateway is seized by the Romulans. The Enterprise must destroy the planet rather than let the Romulans use the past as a weapon - and Kirk has 12 hours to find a way out. Only Spock and Zar have any chance of penetrating the Romulan forces on Gateway. Suddenly, father and son are plunged into a fierce fight for their lives - and a battle to keep the Romulans from fatally changing the past! Featuring a dramatic reading by Leonard Nimoy and James Doohan, and enhanced with sound effects and an original score!

Too Short
This was the shortest most ill put together Star Trek "novel" (if you want to call it that) I've ever read. The story could have been so much better. The only good thing about the narration was having Leonard Nimoy and James Doohan

Warning this is a highly abridged book. Not even worth listening to
I did not realize when I purchased this book that I was only purchasing a very small portion of it. So much has been taken out that it has ruined the story ruined any character development and so on. I recommend buying an actual copy of the entire book and reading that.

Solid continuation of TOS episode
I’ve recently been catching up on Star Trek books that I missed as a teenager. This is — in part — a continuation of the penultimate episode of The Original Series, “All Our Yesterdays.” With James Doohan narrating and Leonard Nimoy voicing several internal monologues by Spock, Yesterday’s Son (1983) feels like a hidden episode of TOS. For Trekkies, a fun audiobook.

Short and sweet
A short story, plausible in the Star Trek universe. I would have liked this story to be a few hours longer because I thoroughly enjoyed it. ,

"My Review of the Abridged " take" or Adaptation "

They completely gutted the book
With such a short running time, I was definitely expecting some abridgment of this rather large book. But they completely gutted it. The book consists completely of Spock and McCoy’s Vulcan storyline and the part of the book regarding Kirk and Adm. Lori Cianna is completely gone. This was the whole point of my purchasing this adaptation int he first place.

My favorite ST book ever!
How can you not love a ST book read by James Doohan and Leonard Nimoy. It reads like a well thought out original series episode with some old familiars and new characters. I will definitely listen to this more than once!
