Publisher's Summary
The powerful, long-awaited sequel to Yesterday's Son. Waves of distorted time are crashing through the universe - destroying everything in their path. Federation scientists pinpoint the source: the Guardian of Forever, the portal to the past where Spock had once journeyed back to meet his son, Zar. Only Spock's son has ever made mind contact with the Guardian - and now Spock, Kirk, and McCoy are reunited on a desperate mission to take the Enterprise to Gateway. Their goal is to bring Zar out of the past to contact the Guardian of Forever and save civilization. But Zar is leading his primitive people into a calamitous war - and unless Kirk and Spock can change the course of history, Zar is doomed to die!

very nice abridgement, but...
This reading does bring you right into the action, expressing the emotions very well. But it's too short! I whole heartedly recommend reading the book for a more detailed and encompassing version of the story. Fans will be able to hear the voices of their favorite characters in their minds as they read. The more complete version of this story is even more satisfying than this well rendered audio version. Either way, it's easy to become emotionally involved and invested in Spock's reunion with his son. However, if you have only a limited time and need to be hands-free, this audiobook is a very good way to spend a little time in the Star Trek universe.

Somewhat annoying
Being very familiar with this book as I have it in my paperback library I have to say that I would have enjoyed the audio version much more if the annoying sound effects in the recording were eliminated. At times they actually drown out the narration of James Doohan and Lenoard Nimoy.

I listened to this book while fishing in virtual reality before work.
it was a good read. although abridged, it was very good and I thoroughly enjoyed it while castibg my reel on the shore of a beach on a rainy day in south Korea . The production was really good with the voices of Leonard Nimoy and James Doohan. the production included Audio FX. and original theme music - easy read and enjoyable while I'm in my own " holodeck"

Great Sequel to Star Trek Yesterday's Son
Where does Star Trek: Time for Yesterday rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This is a well written book, good sound effects, good narration. Nice to hear the voices of Leonard Nimoy and James Doohan. It really added to the enjoyment of the story.
What other book might you compare Star Trek: Time for Yesterday to and why?
Star Trek: Yesterday's Son. This book is the prequel to this book. Nice to hear this book first to get some background information
Which scene was your favorite?
When Zar realized that he was in love with his lady and kissed her.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It made me smile at times. This book is much like other Star Trek stories. Good purchase, but I wished that the book was longer.

Optional sequel
It wasn't strictly necessary after Tomorrow's Son. But nice to see what had happened to Zar. After listening to many regular audiobooks, I found all the sound effects a bit distracting at first. But eventually I came to like them. It's super short and more of a radio play, than a traditional audiobook. If you have that mentality going in, you should enjoy it.

not their finest hour
considering they manage to save theentire universe this time, this is a lacklustre affair that will make little sense to anyone who has not read or heard yesterdays son.
