In the late 21st century, humanity has united after countless years of warfare, and turns toward the stars. But when an alien spacecraft crashlands in the South Pacific bearing visitors from another world, the Vulcans, Earth must decide whether to extend the hand of friendship or the fist of war.
In the distant future, horrible dreams torment Admiral James T. Kirk, dreams prompted by his reading of Strangers from the Sky, a book about that historic first contact. He dreams of an alternate reality where he somehow changed the course of history, and destroyed the Federation before it began.

I really wish they wouldn't abridge the Star Trek books. They cut so much out. It feels like they dump two-thirds of the written book. You don't get to know the characters, and the story is over before you realize it started. I can only hope that the unabridged version was more enjoyable, despite the clashing "history" of first contact.
The best part: hearing George Takei and Leonard Nimoy.
Clashes with tv series canon

I will need to be more careful in the future. If you are considering this book, please be aware of all this.
Enjoyable, but not unabridged

Where does Star Trek: Strangers from the Sky rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Top 3 - I will hear it again, and again.Who was your favorite character and why?
Spock, because he's Spock, I can relate to being too logical. He helped the story's credit.What about George Takei and Leonard Nimoy ’s performance did you like?
The way it felt like I was in the Enterprise and they were reading to me, it gives a thorough performance, almost like the show but in audio.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes, the end had a nice touch to the story, without spoilers, it did make you thing "was it"?Any additional comments?
For the amount price listed, these are bargain brand, genuine show like entertainment. I will hear these over again.Entertaining!

Poor adaptation

I suggest reading the novel first. All the nuances of the relationships, and the details of all the intertwining plots, have been lost in the adaptation. But hearing George Takei and the late great Leonard Nimoy read to me? That was a real treat!
Too short but nostalgic enough
