Here is a very special Star Trek novel; from the woman
consistently voted by fans as their favorite writer from the original Star Trek
television series!
D.C. Fontana, writer of such classic episodes as
"Journey to Babel"
and "This Side of Paradise", here brings us the never-before-told
story of a very young Mr. Spock, on his first mission aboard the USS
Enterprise. You'll also meet Captain Christopher Pike and his enigmatic first
officer, "Number One" (previously seen only in the original Star Trek
pilot "The Cage"), as well as the ship's brand-new engineering
officer, Montgomery Scott.
Vulcan’s Glory is the tale of Spock's struggle to reconcile
his many obligations – those forced on him by his Vulcan heritage, and those
chosen by him upon his enlistment in Starfleet – to balance the wishes of
others against the desires of his own heart.
