With the Enterprise testing a new Federation cloaking device, Kirk and Spock take a shuttle craft to see if they can pierce the ship's invisibility. But, it soon becomes apparent that something has gone wrong. The enterprising pair succeed in boarding the ship, only to discover it is out of phase - and when a Romulan ship arrives, they realize that they have trouble indeed!
But things are going from bad to worse as the captain finds out that the Organians have withdrawn from enforcing their cease-fire along the Federation-Klingon boarder, and full interstellar war looms. Now the Enterprise is on a race with the Klingons to find a cache of ancient Preserver technology, and if possible find out just where the Organians have gone.
OK, if the above description sounds like I am describing two unconnected stories, it should - I certainly saw no real connection between the stories.
But, that said, I did think that this was a very good graphic novel. The two stories are well written and interesting, and I thought that the illustration work was quite good. (Not excellent, perhaps, but quite good.) The authors did a good job of capturing the feel of the original series and the characters therein. Also, I must say that I enjoyed seeing so many characters from the TV series show up looking just like that do on the small screen.
Yeah, I enjoyed this graphic novel, and do not hesitate to recommend it.
I do not recommend this book.
