In this quick reads or young adult adaptation of the classic 1996 movie Star Trek: First Contact we are introduced to the new Enterprise-1701-E and the fact that she has been out in space for a year by the time these events come to pass. The Borg the Federations most dreadful enemy has sent a ship to attack Earth but this time they use a temporal vortex to travel back in time to assimilate Earth before First Contact and change history. The Enterprise follows them back in order to stop them but once they're both in 2063 the Borg ship is destroyed but the damage was already done as they shot the missile complex where Zefram Cochrane was building Earth's first warp ship the Phoenix. From this point on the book follows the script of the film and gives good incite into why Cochrane wanted to build the warp ship up to the point where he now understood why people from the twenty-fourth century looked at him as a visionary because breaking the warp barrier lead to First Contact and a whole new future for Earth. Regardless of the format I recommend picking up a copy of this book and the novelization by J.M. Dillard you won't be disappointed.
