Another exciting episode from television's most popular science fiction series Complete in this volume: The Counter-Clock Incident Commodore Robert April, first Captain of the Enterprise, was traveling at warp-speeds toward retirement... a fate worse than death for a seasoned sailor of the spaceways. There didn't seem to be any way to turn back the hands of time - but then nothing is ever certain in the outer reaches of the galaxy. Nothing, that is, except that a Klingon in pursuit means trouble... especially when that Klingon is the wily Commander Kumara!

One of the better Star Trek Log books

While this one winds up with an "It Was All An Illusion" finale, I still quite enjoyed the ride to get there. Foster essentially ends the story by thumbing his nose at the ridiculous animated series episode ("The Counter-Clock Incident") he had to adapt, but he does it by following up with a rip-roaring starship chase and yet another opportunity for Kirk and Spock to end up in jail. The non-canonical Klingon Commander Kumara (an exchange student who was Kirk's roommate at Starfleet Academy!) is a hoot.

One detail I particularly enjoyed (and have gotten a kick out of throughout Foster's Trek books) is the number of references to wrist chronometers (watches, to you and me) that crop up. I counted three in this book. Even the Klingon Commander wears one!
