Soon the learn that they are in a parallel universe where everything seems the same, but it is not only different but a hostile universe. To correct this anomaly kirk spock mccoy and a well rounded science team must travel 64 million years in earth's past to correct what went wrong. It is the jurassic period with many dangers, but soon they discover a species that is much too intelligent to be a coincidence.

Review of 'First Frontier' on 'Goodreads'

Ok, so the Guardian is far too overused. Agreed. But… it’s Star trek and Dinosaurs! How cool! I am not saying there was anything overspecial – a lot of emotional background from Kirk, some interesting pulls about Spock’s hybrid nature, and of course, the Enterprise gets blown up, which is always fun. Yet something compelled me to carry on, and when I was done, I found myself having come out of it not just happy that it was a Trek story, but quite enthused. So yes glad I picked it up, it falls nicely into a TOS spot.
