Enterprise: The First Adventure

Among the Star Trek shows, my favorite is the original series. This books takes place some time before that. We are introduced to the characters from the TV series. They are often different then I remember, but that is mostly because by the time of the TV show, they had acquired a lot of professional and personal experience. In general, I thought the people in this book were recognizable as the younger versions of the TOS heroes. I enjoyed the plot and had a good time reading the book.
There are a couple more related books and I look forward to them.

Overall, the audio was entertaining. Takei presents the story well and the audio effects are used in a way that added rather than annoyed. In fact, I liked the production more than the story by itself.

I liked the way the author presents Kirk being introduced to the crew as the new captain. The audio story is an audio adaptation, so it is not the while story. I may give the whole story a shot one day, but I did find my mind wandering even though the production was well done.

Overall a fun listen, but it didn't challenge me much.
