find that group of Native Americans living on the Cardassian planet and Picard has to 'right a wrong' imposed upon the Native Americans by a former ancestor. It ties into the episode in TNG series where Picard and Co. The basic gist is that there is a race of advanced dinosaurs that have been moved to another planet by the race called 'The Preservers' so that they can go on living while their society/species is annihilated. I have to agree with other reviewers - Jurassic Park meets Star Trek.
The premise was somewhat interesting - the telling of the story not so much. I cannot say there was much character development in the book. I think it could have been about one hundred pages shorter without missing a beat. This time, they must boldly go when no man has existed yet! One of the most solid books in Star Trek in the field of real science, thanks to the collaboration of a real paleontologist in the inner writing process, instead of just an outer consultation.
You don't need to be Spock to deduce that someone or something messed with the timeline, so Kirk, Spock, McCoy and the rest of the USS Enterprise's crew must get back in time to find out what happened and restore the original timeline. The USS Enterprise's crew is the last remaining humans in history!

The USS Enterprise is testing a new technology and soon enough they are caught in the middle of a battle between Romulans and Klingons, nothing unusual there, BUT. what better than a real paleontologist writing about dinosaurs?! Kirk) who is a real life paleontologist and since in this story, dinosaurs play a central role. Kirkland (nope, the special thing isn't that his name is astoundly similar to James T. This particular novel of Star Trek: The Original Series is quite unusual (in a very good way) since it's written not only by Diana Carey, an experienced author in the Star Trek franchise, BUT ALSO is co-written too by Dr.
Time Travel & Dinosaurs! Whatl else can you ask?!ĮNTERPRISE V.
