A joyful, timeless classic brought to life

This adaptation captures everything that made The Voyage Home such a beloved entry in the Star Trek universe—humor, heart, and hope. Hearing Leonard Nimoy and George Takei narrate is an absolute treat; their voices carry the warmth, wit, and camaraderie that defined the original crew.

At just over an hour and a half, it’s a quick listen but perfectly paced, full of nostalgia and optimism that still feels fresh decades later. Whether you’re a lifelong Trekkie or a casual fan, this audiobook is pure comfort and charm. Five stars all around.

where is the unabridged

as this is my favorite movie I was hoping to find the unabridged version. I am not quite sure why this is abridged but it is still a great listen

Terrible adaptation

I got this audiobook in hopes to have a far more in-depth and detailed telling of this movie script. Instead, I had an incredibly abbreviated telling of Star Trek for with enormous swatches of the story completely cut.

I was so disappointed with this adaptation!!!

Uh... no. Sorry.

I got this title because, when I was in the eighth grade, I fully enjoyed the novelization of STAR TREK IV, and the price was insanely low.

Unless my (nearly photographic) memory is failing me, this is NOT the novelization. It's more like a reading of a summary with a few interjections by Spock and sound effects, and contains none of the added detail I remember (such as the scripted, but unfilmed, scene where Sulu encounters his ancestor).

Takei and Nimoy must have really needed the money, that's all I can say.

Book not complete

this book came incomplere only got the first few pages of the first chapter tried ot get it replaced but got no response from audible
