Forced to take refuge in the Federation’s universe, she bides her time until Section 31, a rogue spy force within Starfleet, offers her a chance to work as their agent.

Summary
A novel by Star Trek's creator Gene Roddenberry - based on the screenplay by Harold Livingston and story by Alan Dean Foster.
The human adventure is just beginning.
The writer-producer who created Mr. Spock and all the other Star Trek characters - who invented the Starship Enterprise, who gave the show its look, its ideals - puts it all together again here in his first Star Trek novel!
Their historic five-year mission is over. Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty, and all the crew have scattered to other jobs or other lives. Now, they are back together again on a fabulously refitted USS Enterprise as an incredibly destructive power threatens earth and the human race.

Better than the movie?
Written by Gene Roddenberry and based on the screenplay for the movie, It's a great novelisation and adds a lot of texture which is sadly missing in the original theatrical cut of the movie (less so the director's cut). The reader of the audiobook does a great job on adding some personality to the characters in the book without doing impressions.
If you're a Trek fan, even if you don't like the movie, this book is well worth a go,

Excellent
If you have read the original book then this audiobook follows mostly the same storyline. It is unabridged therefore more in depth than what you see in the movie, however you get to understand the characters and storyline with more details and this does not distract you in anyway from following the story in the same way as the movie. Robert Petkoff does a excellent narration and you can immerse yourself in the book and characters. I loved the original book when it was first published and the audiobook is great value and I was not disappointed.

A great story and good introduction into The Star Trek Universe
I wanted to read/listen to this book because I always have liked Star Trek and the movie to me was just kind of eh ok at best so I was hoping the book might be a little better. The book was good; it explains a little bit better of what V Ger is and what’s exactly going on. Also; I read a lot of other reviews and have to agree that the book also gives a little backstory on where these characters are now and also a little bit more on Kirk. The film I feel like they rushed it and the book takes a little more time setting things up and allowing the reader to understand of what’s going on and why it’s happening. I liked it and I think if you are someone who’s never read or seen any Star Trek I think the book overall does a good job welcoming you into the Star Trek Universe. I think you as a reader will overall like this book and I would recommend it for people wanting to be entertained and enjoy a good story. I’ve always felt that books were better than their prospective films; a readers imagination is a fabulous creation and your brain gives you a fantastic front row performance. The narrator also does an amazing job with the character voices so he kind of makes it easy for you to enjoy and it’s a great listen. You often at times (at least I found it happening for me) that the narrator does such an amazing job that you can really picture the characters in your mind speaking and talking and it’s very enjoyable. There are some good and bad voice actors and sometimes they can either really help the book or put you to sleep. Overall a great job and I really enjoyed listening to him. Really hope you enjoy this book as well and encourage you to keep going; there are many delightful Star Trek books out there....

Very pleased with this production
I read this novelization years ago when it was first released in conjunction with the feature film, but had not revisited it until I listened to this audiobook version. I enjoyed this every bit as much as I did the first time I read the book. Robert Petkoff delivers a masterful performance as narrator. He brings the essence of the original cast’s voices to bear. I was especially impressed with his voices for Kirk, Scotty and Chekov. I think he’s an ideal choice to voice Star Trek audiobooks moving forward. Highly recommended.
