Transformations is an original audio drama that launched the short-lived Captain Sulu Adventures series. Unlike most Trek audiobooks released by Simon and Schuster that adapted previously published novels, Transformations and its followups were original-to-audio storylines performed by several actors.
Description[]
- In the most spellbinding Star Trek audio program ever, experience the incredible sensation of ambisonic 3-D sound as it envelops your mind and transports you to the center of the action in Star Trek: Transformations, the first Captain Sulu audio adventure.
- Star Date 11611.8: As Starfleet diplomat Captain Hikaru Sulu speeds alone across the galaxy in his state-of-the-art shuttlecraft, he is abducted by powerful, frightening dreams that return him to the once desolate, desert world of Sigma Cameron Four. It was here, as Commander of the USS Excelsior twenty years earlier, that he discovered traces of the ancient Shalakai — a ruthless culture who, legend held, had once uncovered the secret to eternal life. Driven to find that secret, Sulu's brilliant science officer, Commander Flynn Konner, launched a fateful mission whose outcome would forever haunt the Excelsior crew.
- Now, twenty years later, as the distinguished archeologist Dr. Constance Allenwood moves closer to uncovering the Shalakai's secrets on Sigma Cameron Four, Sulu must race to stop her before she unleashes a disastrous chain of events. With its dazzling audio effects and original score, Star Trek: Transformations is sure to leave you breathless.
