        Back Cover Text:
        
            Gamma  Xaridian - a peaceful Federation research colony  that 
            becomes the third Federation world to suffer a brutal  attack 
            at the hands of a mysterious alien fleet. With Lt. Uhura gone 
            on  an  important mission of her own, Captain  Kirk  and  the 
            U.S.S. Enterprise are dispatched to investigate the  attacks, 
            only to find the planets compleately devastated.
        
            When another nearby colony is attacked, the U.S.S. Enterprise 
            is  ready and encounters a fleet of quick, small  and  deadly 
            ships.  Though Kirk and his crew manage to turn  the  raiders 
            away,  the  U.S.S.  Enterprise is severely  damaged  and  the 
            aliens escape.
        
            As  Kirk and his crew prepare for their next  encounter  with 
            the raiders, Mr. Spock makes a startling discovery about  the 
            purpose  behind  the  alien  attacks -  a  purpose  that,  if 
            realized,  could have deadly consequences for the  Federation 
            and the U.S.S. Enterprise...
        
        Front Inside Cover Text:
        
            "FORWARD PHASERS OUT!" CALLED SPOCK.
        
            "Starboard  shields  buckling," the Vulcan  continued.  "Port 
            shields can sustain only two more hits."
        
            "Captain,  how  about the Turnoga defense!"  Chekpv  suddenly 
            shouted. "In a situation like thts-"
        
            "Not now, Mr. Chekov!" snapped Kirk.
        
            "But sir-"
        
            "Ensign,"  said Kirk, "I don't have time to turn  the  bridge 
            into an Academy lecture hall. Bring us around to 419 mark  6. 
            Drop forward shields; prepare for warp speed."
        
            "What?"  Chekov exclaimed. "Captain, even minimal  warp  will 
            kick  us right out of the system! And with no shields,  we'll 
            be defenseless."
        
            "Ensign,  you're relieved," said Kirk sharply. "Palmer,  take 
            over.  Mr.  Chekov,  get  the hell  off  the  bridge.  You're 
            confined to quarters."
