Science Fiction
Young Jim Kirk wants nothing to do with
Starfleet, and never wants to leave Earth. In the summer
of 2249, he's a headstrong seventeen-year-old barely
scraping by in San Francisco, haunted by horrific memories
from his past. In the same city, a nineteen-year-old
alien named Spock is determined to rise above the emotional
turmoil of his mixed-species heritage. He's determined to
show his parents he has what it takes to be Vulcan -- even
if it means exposing a mysterious conspiracy at the heart of
the Vulcan Embassy, stretching to the farthest reaches of
the Federation's borders. There, a chilling new threat
has arisen to test the Federation's deepest held belief
that war is a thing of the past and that a secure future can
be forged through peaceful means alone. But it is in San
Francisco, home to Starfleet Academy, where that threat will
be met by two troubled teenage boys driven to solve the
mystery that links them both. In time, the universe
will come to know these young rebels as Captain James T.
Kirk and Mr. Spock...two of the Federation's greatest
heroes. Yet before they were heroes, they were simply
conflicted teenagers, filled with raw ambition and talent,
not yet seasoned by wisdom and experience, searching for
their own unique directions in life -- a destiny they'll
discover on one fateful night in San Francisco, when two
lives collide, and two legends are born. Star Trek:
Academy -- Collision Course sets the stage for an
exciting new era of Star Trek adventure, and for the first
time reveals Kirk and Spock as they were, and how they began
their journey to become the Kirk and Spock we know today.
