  This is a solid start to what could potentially be a really good chapter in these final missions of Kirk's original five-year journey. Read Full Review

  Similarly as unconvincing is the (re)introduction of Isis as the tales main adversary. Just how or why the shape-changing partner of Gary Seven would detonate the airborne pathogen responsible for such mass destruction isnt made very clear.

Such a fortuitous observation smacks of lazy writing and is as believable as Spock needing to remind the Bridge Crew as to just who Zephram Cochrane is during a conference, despite some of the characters having already met the pivotal figure in Human history on an isolated asteroid during the 1967 televised episode Metamorphosis.
