About this listen
When murder and sabotage imperil the time-sensitive and top-secret mission of a team of civilian scientists, Starfleet deploys Captain Christopher Pike and the Enterprise crew to Kathara Station, a classified research facility located above the accretion disk of a black hole.
Lieutenant Commander Una Chin-Riley soon discovers the station’s director, Valkeya, is hiding secrets—but so is Captain Pike, who many years earlier visited this same black hole on a mission that went tragically wrong, and whose consequences have haunted him ever since.
Caught in the crossfire on the station are Science Officer Spock, Nurse Christine Chapel, and Security Chief La’An Noonien-Singh, whose romantic entanglements old and new threaten to unravel their bonds of friendship.
As enemies converge upon the station, can Valkeya and Pike both atone for the mistakes of their pasts in time to avert a tragedy? With time running out, the survival of Kathara Station, the USS Enterprise, and dozens of innocent lives hinges on their acts of contrition…
Anyone that watches the show knows the fate of certain characters, since the show has already bypassed this point and therefore we know that certain key characters survive the ordeal. With this in mind, it's still suspenseful and interesting, and I kept wanting to listen to more.
There was some great character development for Pike, Ortegas, Chappel, and Spock. Pike wrestles with his past. Ortegas is a badass and totally rocks her shot in command. Chappel faces some new experiences. Spock ... is Spock, and it was interesting to get his inner monologue and Vulcan perspective on a few events.
Guest characters, like those on the station, were memorable and added well to the overall story.
While I disagree with certain decisions, like the way Spock reacted in a few scenarios and the repeated focus on the Spock/La'an relationship from the TV show, overall this was a good story that delivered on its promise. It had a satisfying ending.
Good character development for Pike, Ortegas, Chappel, and Spock
