BOOK DESCRIPTION:
Vulcan: linchpin member of the United Federation of
Planets. Home to a civilization dedicated to o'thia, the ruling ethic of
pure logic. But it was not always so; thousands of years before, Vulcans
were a violent, warlike race, with tempers surpassed only by the planet's
hot, arid sands. The philosopher Surak would show his people another way,
teach them to reject their emotions and embrace logic and knowledge. The
Vulcans would evolve and prosper, eventually exploring the stars and
attaining further enlightenment as they encountered other cultures.
In the twenty-third century, Commander Spock, Captain Kirk, and the U.S.S.
Enterprise are summoned to Vulcan when its people consider seceding from the
Federation and returning to their isolationist ways. Vulcan's savage history
becomes fully revealed as Spock, his father Sarek, and Kirk work to preserve
the planet's future from anti-Terran factions with hidden agendas. The
crisis is twofold for the half-human Spock -- should Vulcan secede, he will
be required to resign from Starfleet and return home, or forever sever ties
with his homeworld.
Years later, a decades-old plot to destroy the Federation from within forces
Ambassador Sarek from the bedside of his dying wife, Amanda. The
ambassador's decision widens the long-standing rift between himself and
Spock at a time when they must pool their resources together. While the
Enterprise crew contends with Romulans, Klingons, and the mysterious
Freelans, Sarek's only comfort comes from reading Amanda's journals, which
reveal more about his human spouse, his son, and himself than he ever
realized.
