The Entropy Effect - Paperback

by Vonda N. McIntyre (Author)

A time-travel crisis threatens the very fabric of the universe--and Spock must race history itself in this thrilling and suspenseful novel set in the Star Trek: The Original Series.

When the USS Enterprise is summoned to transport a dangerous criminal to rehabilitation: the brilliant physicist, Dr. Georges Mordreaux, accused of promising to send people back in time, then killing them instead. But when a crazed Mordreaux escapes, he inexplicably bursts onto the bridge and murders Captain Kirk before the crew's eyes.

Now Spock must journey back in time to avert the disaster before it occurs. But more is at stake than Kirk's life. Mordreaux's experiments have thrown the universe into chaos, and Spock is fighting time itself to keep the very fabric of reality from unraveling.
