Star Trek: New Frontier: Excalibur #3: Restoration

Excalibur #3

By: Peter David

Narrated by: Joe Morton

The ever resourceful Captain Mackenzie Calhoun abruptly finds himself at a loss—marooned on he primitive outback world of Yakaba after his ship, Excalibur, is destroyed by deadly sabotage. He is separated from his loyal first officer, Shelby, who has gone one to command the Exeter and is certain that Calhoun has been blasted into oblivion. On Yakaba's dry frontier, Calhoun meets and befriends Shula, an extraordinary woman beset by enemies trying to control or destroy her and her gift—summoning rain to her parched homeland.

Trapped on this hostile world, unable to relay to his people that he survived their ship's cataclysm, Calhoun must stand against countless adversaries who will stop at nothing to gain power or keep it from others. Life and death hang in the balance. Out in the distance, mourning but determined to move on, Shelby must discover what sort of captain she really is.®, © and (P)2000 Paramount Pictures, All Rights Reserved; AUDIOWORKS Is an Imprint of Simon & Schuster Audio Division, Simon & Schuster Inc.

Why no more audiobooks?

The series is worthy of being put on cd. As a truck driver I have little time to sit and read. Audiobooks made life on the road bearablewhile waiting at weighstations or traversing the interstates. As a long time trekker I would really like to hear this, the titan, and typhone pact series on cd or done for audio download. I think they would sell well. Why let Star Wars take all of the audio market? They provide audio versions as part of the original publishing release. Live long and prosper!

Great star trek story.

Makes me wish there were more shows done with the next generation. This series would have been awesome with the actors who played in the next gen show.

wish it wasn't abridged

I read all of the new frontier books at one time, always loved the stories. I just hate it when they take so much out of them when they abridge the audio books.

Great Series

love the new frontier series and Joe Morton is a great narrator! Good story overall.

Terrible book...

This is the worst Star Trek book I’ve ever listened to. The cheesy music, terrible sound effects, exaggerated reactions, and stiff dialog made several scenes cringe- worthy.

The characters who don’t have exaggerated southern accents seem like they are reading from a dictionary. The Calhoun character sounds like an embarrassingly bad Shatner impression.

With so many good Star Trek books out there, why waste time ok this one?
