The first in a thrilling trilogy from the bestselling authors of Vulcan’s Forge and Vulcan’s Heart chronicles the latter-day adventures of one of Star Trek’s most beloved characters, shedding new light on his world’s fascinating history. One year after the end of the Dominion War, the Romulan Star Empire comes under attack by a mysterious and alarmingly powerful enemy calling itself the Watraii, a species with a long-standing vendetta against the Romulans. Yet though they remain tenuously allied, the Federation, the Romulans, and the Klingons are ill-prepared to become embroiled in another sustained conflict, forcing Ambassador Spock, Admiral Uhura, Admiral Chekov, Captain Saavik, and some unexpected allies to defy their governments in order to meet the new threat head-on. But the first blood drawn may prove to be among the dearest of all. Unknown to the defenders, the secret behind the Watraii’s attack is buried in Vulcan’s violent ancient past, during the time of Surak himself. Now Spock must begin the first leg of a long and dangerous road to learn the truth...before his hopes for the future become ashes.

I struggled with this book for months and I'm glad I can finally get it out of my system.
The pacing in the Memory segments was excruciatingly slow and there was some repetition of already established facts (e.g. a character changed their name and the author(s) reminded you of that at least twice in the following pages, although it wasn't something difficult to remember).
I didn't like the writing style in general. The premise is interesting, and it was nice to see some familiar characters, but I think it all could've been written differently.
