SynopsisThe long-awaited novel featuring both crews of the "Enterprise" in an epic adventure that spans time and space. As Captain Kirk, Captain Jean-Luc Picard, and their crews struggle to fulfill their missions, destiny draws them together, merging past and future until the fate of each rests in the hands of the other., Every hero has to have a beginning that shapes him into the man he will become. James T. Kirk's starts here..., "If you think you know how it all began, think again..." Young Jim Kirk wants nothing to do with Starfleet, andnever wants to leave Earth. In the summer of 2249, he's a headstrong seventeen-year-old barely scraping by in San Francisco, haunted by horrific memories from his past. In the same city, a nineteen-year-old alien named Spock is determined to rise above the emotional turmoil of his mixed-species heritage. He's determined to show his parents he has what it takes to be Vulcan -- even if it means exposing a mysterious conspiracy at the heart of the Vulcan Embassy, stretching to the farthest reaches of the Federation's borders. There, a chilling new threat hasarisen to test the Federation's deepest held belief that war is a thing of the past and that a secure future can be forged through peaceful means alone. But it is in San Francisco, home to Starfleet Academy, where that threat will be met by two troubled teenage boys driven to solve the mystery that links them both. In time, the universe will come to know these young rebels as Captain James T. Kirk and Mr. Spock...two of the Federation's greatest heroes. Yet before they were heroes, they were simply conflicted teenagers, filled with raw ambition and talent, not yet seasoned by wisdom and experience, searching for their own unique directions in life -- a destiny they'll discover on one fateful night in San Francisco, when two lives collide, and two legends are born. "Star Trek: Academy -- Collision Course sets" the stage for an exciting new era of Star Trek adventure, and for the first time reveals Kirk and Spock as they were, and how they began their journey to become the Kirk and Spock we know today., William Shatner portrayed Captain James T. Kirk throughout Star Trek the Original Series and seven subsequent films, and has continued to explore and expand the career of Captain Kirk in no less than nine successful novels. In 'Collision Course', Shatner turns his attention to Kirk's formative years at Starfleet Academy.
