About this listen

 Sector 221-G: For the whole of Federation history, this large
area of space has been controlled by the Thallonians, a cruel,
militaristic race of which little is knownexcept that they rule
the other races in their sector with vicious iron hand.

Now the Thallonian Empire has collapsed and the systems it once
ruled are in chaos. Old hatreds are surfacing. Petty tyrants
control deadly weapons. World after world is descending into
disorder and self-destruction. The Federation must send a
starship to help where it can and report what it finds.

That ship is the U.S.S. Excalibur, a newly refit Ambassador-class
starship commanded by Captain Mackenzie Calhoun and manned by
Starfleet's best and brightest, including some old friends from
Star Trek: The Next Generation and some of the most dynamic new
characters ever to crew a Federation starship.

Join Captain Calhoun and the crew of the U.S.S. Excalibur as they
explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new
civilizations, and boldly go where no one has gone before!© and (P)1997 Paramount Pictures, All Rights Reserved; AUDIOWORKS Is an Imprint of Simon & Schuster Audio Division, Simon & Schuster Inc. Adventure First Contact Military Science Fiction Space Opera

This is quite an interesting book. Initially, you are wondering what it's all about, but as the story progresses, things become clearer. The 'splits' of the 4 books, give you moments of pause, allowing you to digest the story fully. These splits also prompt you into wondering what will happen next, excellently constructed.

Another worthwhile story to add to my collection :-)

An intriguing story.

Star Trek New Frontier is a great series of book (all 4 are included in this recording). Enjoy, likeable characters and a good, gritty storyline. Well read too.

Love the main character of Calhoon and how the narrator does his voice. I started to read this book when it was published about 25 years ago and never considered Calhoon’s voice like that!

I always felt this should have been adapted for TV, it would be perfect for today’s TV format.

New Frontier, New Beginnings, New Ship, New Captain, New Adventures, Old Book!

Loved the original novels but you lose Peter David's wit and love for the charaters when abridging his work. Also don't like the performers choices for Mac no one would follow him sounding like that. with a better performer and the original novels I bet this would be a 5 star review. would love for more of the New Frontier stories to be adapted but unabridged.

Not good enoigh
