Books like Star Trek - Captain's Glory by William Shatner
During his five‑year mission as captain of the Enterprise, James T. Kirk confronts the alien threat known as the Totality, whose stealthy invasion of the Milky Way threatens the Federation. The Totality has previously taken the seductive form of the alien Norinda, compelling those it encounters with irresistible desire. In earlier confrontations, Kirk nearly lost the Enterprise and later his child, while witnessing the Totality absorb Spock.
With the Federation weakened after the events of *Star Trek Nemesis*, Kirk must unite with Admiral Kathryn Janeway, Chief Medical Officer Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy, Chief Engineer Scotty, and the Holographic Doctor from Voyager to confront the Totality. Facing opposition from former ally Captain Jean‑Luc Picard and dealing with internal conflict on the Starship Titan, Kirk prepares for a final showdown with an enemy that wields love as its greatest weapon.
