Kirk, Spock, and the others of the Enterprise find a deadly Eden, discover elemental life forces and planetary death wishes, and even meet Abraham Lincoln and Genghis Khan, as they speed through space on new assignments into the unknown.
Based on the exciting new NBC-TV series created by Gene Roddenberry.
The Savage Curtain
Adapted from the episode The Savage Curtain.
Story by Gene Roddenberry
Teleplay by Gene Roddenberry and Arthur Heinemann
While surveying the planet Excalbia, which appears to consist of nothing but a lava-like surface, the Enterprise is scanned by a powerful energy source from the surface. Soon afterward, an entity who resembles and claims to actually be Abraham Lincoln appears in space and requests to be beamed aboard. Kirk and Spock welcome Lincoln with the full ceremonies due a visiting head of state, then accept his invitation to visit Excalbia. There, a rock-like being named Yarnek appears and announces that the Enterprise landing party will participate in a battle between good and evil, so that the Excalbians can learn about these concepts. On the side of good are Kirk, Spock, Lincoln, and Surak, the Vulcan who united the people of his planet and taught them to suppress their emotions and live in peace. On the side of evil are Zora, a merciless criminal scientist, Genghis Khan, the tyrant warlord of ancient Earth, Colonel Green, an unprincipled, aggressive Human warlord, and Kahless the Unforgettable, the Klingon who set the mold for the Klingon Empire. Yarnek threatens to destroy the Enterprise if Kirk and Spock do not participate. After both sides conceive plots and counter-plots, only Kirk, Spock, Genghis Khan, and Zora are left alive. Satisfied, Yarnek returns Kirk and Spock to the Enterprise.

The Lights of Zetar
Adapted from the episode The Lights of Zetar.
Written by Jeremy Tarcher and Shari Lewis.
Lieutenant Mira Romaine has been assigned to the Enterprise to supervise the transfer of new equipment to Memory Alpha, the central library facility of the United Federation of Planets. Then an energy storm of unknown nature kills all the inhabitants of Memory Alpha — and erases its computer banks as well. Apparently as a result of the storm, Lieutenant Romaine, who has recently entered a shared attraction with Mr. Scott, is able to predict where the energy will strike next: the Enterprise. Despite Captain Kirk's best efforts, the energy enters the ship and possesses Romaine. They discover the storm is actually a collective, energy-based life-form, the surviving life force of the last natives of Zetar, a dead world. Romaine's psychological attributes made her an ideal host for the Zetars, who communicate through her. The Zetars refuse to leave her body, insisting that they have a right to live, even at the expense of Romaine's life, but the "Lights" are extinguished when Romaine is placed in a pressurized chamber, and the Zetars, accustomed to the vacuum of space, are subjected to extremely high pressure. Recovered, Romaine returns to Memory Alpha to help restore the heavily-damaged facilities.
