Description

A thrilling Star Trek: The Original Series adventure in which Captain Kirk faces an ancient alien invasion—and an urgent plea for help from the Klingon Empire.

Long ago, before the days of myth and legend, our worlds belonged to them. Now they want them back…

Captain Kirk is stunned when the Federation receives an urgent plea for help—from the Klingon Empire. A mysterious starship has invaded Klingon space and resisted all their efforts to destroy it. Establishing contact with the stranger’s ship, Kirk discovers that it is only the vanguard of a vast alien fleet obsessed with conquering the Klingons, the Federation, the Romulans, and all who dwell in the space that was once their own.

The Invasion has begun…

  • Love this whole series

    The Invasion! series is an incredible storyline. Time’s Enemy by L.A. Graf is my favorite, but all four books are essential to the plot. Like the legs of a table! This is an excellent book, and together all four books make for a satisfying read.

  • A waste of time for children.

    Silly and predictable. Shallow understanding of … everything. Pedestrian writing. There are a vast number of inspirational, exciting and entertaining books for children, written by talented authors. This is not one.

  • Great Characterizations, Chilling Storyline

    I've read this Invasion series over and over and this first book is the best of the lot. Diane Carey writes some of the best Trek novels and this one is no exception. Without giving away too much, the visuals she creates are very visceral and scary, and the characters' reactions to them are realistically depicted. This would have made a great movie! Very suspenseful with a satisfying conclusion. Try it, you'll like it.
