About this listen

The powerful, long-awaited sequel to Yesterday's Son. Waves of distorted time are crashing through the universe - destroying everything in their path. Federation scientists pinpoint the source: the Guardian of Forever, the portal to the past where Spock had once journeyed back to meet his son, Zar. Only Spock's son has ever made mind contact with the Guardian - and now Spock, Kirk, and McCoy are reunited on a desperate mission to take the Enterprise to Gateway. Their goal is to bring Zar out of the past to contact the Guardian of Forever and save civilization. But Zar is leading his primitive people into a calamitous war - and unless Kirk and Spock can change the course of history, Zar is doomed to die!

Love the book and the audio

AIt was a fantastic book and a great audio! I love the series. I wish it could continue for at least 2 more books and, possibly, audio books too.

very nice abridgement, but...

This reading does bring you right into the action, expressing the emotions very well. But it's too short! I whole heartedly recommend reading the book for a more detailed and encompassing version of the story. Fans will be able to hear the voices of their favorite characters in their minds as they read. The more complete version of this story is even more satisfying than this well rendered audio version. Either way, it's easy to become emotionally involved and invested in Spock's reunion with his son. However, if you have only a limited time and need to be hands-free, this audiobook is a very good way to spend a little time in the Star Trek universe.

A good book with no space battles.

I picked this book randomly because I was looking for some trek. It was not a bad book. I was just looking for a book with space battles.

Short but good

I listened to this book while fishing in virtual reality before work.
it was a good read. although abridged, it was very good and I thoroughly enjoyed it while castibg my reel on the shore of a beach on a rainy day in south Korea . The production was really good with the voices of Leonard Nimoy and James Doohan. the production included Audio FX. and original theme music - easy read and enjoyable while I'm in my own " holodeck"

All our yesterday's meets city on the edge of fore

These two companion books, give closure and answer the questions of what happened in that adventure. I recommend these two books for any star trek TOS fan.

Great Sequel to Star Trek Yesterday's Son

Where does Star Trek: Time for Yesterday rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is a well written book, good sound effects, good narration. Nice to hear the voices of Leonard Nimoy and James Doohan. It really added to the enjoyment of the story.

What other book might you compare Star Trek: Time for Yesterday to and why?

Star Trek: Yesterday's Son. This book is the prequel to this book. Nice to hear this book first to get some background information

Which scene was your favorite?

When Zar realized that he was in love with his lady and kissed her.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me smile at times. This book is much like other Star Trek stories. Good purchase, but I wished that the book was longer.

Beyond logic there is love

Spock returning to the past to attempt to save his son ,shows a more human side of Spock. He couldn't just walk away without trying to be there for his son .
in the end both father ,son and time itself won .
wonderful read . Thankyou
