Time For Yesterday

The long-awaited sequel to Yesterday’s Son!

• Stardate Unknown
• Released April 1988

Time in the galaxy has stopped running in its normal course. That can mean only one thing the Guardian of Forever is malfunctioning. To save the universe, Starfleet Command reunites three of its most legendary figures—Admiral James T. Kirk, Spock of Vulcan, and Dr. Leonard McCoy—and sends them on a desperate mission to contact the Guardian, a journey that ultimately takes them 5,000 years into the past. They must find Spock’s son Zar once again—and bring him back to their time to telepathically communicate with the Guardian.

But Zar is enmeshed in troubles of his own, and soon Kirk, Spock, and McCoy find themselves in a desperate struggle to save both their world—and his!

Excerpt

“The person who communicated with the Guardian was my son.”

Admiral Morrow looked at Spock incredulously.

“Your—” Kirk doubted that Morrow could have looked more thunderstruck if the conference table had come to life and danced a hornpipe. It was a full thirty seconds before the admiral could speak. “I apologize, Mr. Spock… but your personnel records never…”

He cleared his throat. “At any rate,” Morrow continued, “the important thing is that contact was established. What your son did once, he may be able to do again. Where is he?”

“I am afraid that will be impossible, Admiral,” Spock said levelly, but something shadowed the dark eyes for a moment. “My son has been dead for five thousand years.”
