Product Description

From Library Journal

Not to be confused with a Star TrekR: The Next GenerationTM episode of the same name, Transformations makes its debut as an original audiobook. Stern's creation, his first Star TrekR tale, is sui generis as he focuses the story on Captain Sulu, who was heretofore considered a supporting character. While en route to rendezvous with the U.S.S. Excelsior, the starship under his command, Sulu is seized by inescapable nightmares. Twenty years earlier, Sulu's science officer, Commander Flynn Konner, grappled with an evil alien force that obtains immortality by capturing the souls of its victims. Now Sulu, alone and unfortified, breaks course to hunt down his old nemesis; a hunt that leads to a deadly confrontation and a duel for the extrication of minds mysteriously lost years ago. Hindered only by a slightly overdramatized reading by George Takei-the sole portrayer of Sulu in the Star TrekR universe-this audiobook is a fast, alluring listen and a grand addition to all sf audio collections.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sign me up for the crew!, Dec 8 1999
By K. McGuinness - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Star Trek: Transformations : A Captain Sulu Adventure/Cassette (Audio Cassette)
As a big fan of the original series and of the character of Sulu, it was great to see him made Captain at last in Star Trek VI. These wonderful audionovels allow fans who want more to get just that. Mr. Takei is a wonderful actor who has a great distinctive and effective voice. The excellent vocal cast on this audio novel also was a pleasure to listen to. It definately transported the mind to the final frontier... It is great to listen to on long drives or trips on planes or trains. Much like the now 'ancient' radio programs of old, audio novels let you use your best entertainment center, your imagination to it's fullest. Having a familiar and treasured character like Sulu connects you to the story in a great way. This was one of the best of the Captain Sulu audio series. Scary at times, a great mystery to unravel. All of the Captain Sulu stories in fact are quite good and I'd love to hear more...even better let's see a Captain Sulu series! Afterall the Adventure should always continue!

3.0 out of 5 stars A Good Beginning, Sep 29 2001
By "alexianemp" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Star Trek: Transformations (Audio CD)
This was a thouroughly interesting story that held my attention for its duration. The 3-D sound was great and listening with headphones made it come alive! What bothered me about it was that the story is comprised of log entries and letters so that there is virtually no interaction between the actors. It therfore gave the impression of being closer to an audio book than an audio drama, except that the readers read their parts in the first person (mostly). I was hoping for more, as I suppose I'd been a bit spoiled with all the wonderful Doctor Who audios out these days, but I am certainly looking forward to the others in this series and hope that Star Trek uses the full cast audio realm more in the future.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sulu At His Best, Jan 2 2001
By Ambassador Worf - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Transformations (Audio Cassette)
Star Trek: Transformations -- A Captain Sulu Adventure. It was an intriguing title. It was on audio. I had only heard one other recording like it, so I decided to buy it. I'm glad I did. About 6 months before my listening to this tape, I had heard the CD Cacophony. The plot deteriorated in the middle of the recording, the casting was awful, most of the characters were unbelievable. All except for one outstanding personality and voice. He was familiar with his character, and did an outstanding performance. This character was Captain Hikaru Sulu, as played by George Takei. Takei delivered an even better performance in the first Sulu adventure, Transformation. This time all the characters were all believable. All three of them. The plot was great. I loved every minute of it, except when I had to exert energy to turn the tape over. Overall, Transformations is the audio tape to get! It is extremely awesome in the dark with headphones on. The 3-D sound and your imagination will bring the story to life.

Ambassador Worf out.
