| Review Summary |
This is the novelization of the movie of the same name. It tells the story of Spock's brother, Sybok, as he hijacks the Enterprise and takes it through the great energy barrier (one of them, anyway), to where he thinks he'll find god. Spock must grapple with his feelings for his brother, Kirk must grapple with Spock's feelings for his brother, and Sybok must grapple with his feelings when what he finds isn't what he expects.
