This Audiobook was originally released as a podcast. That means each "episode" ended with a full list of producers, voice actors, directors etc.

A full cast audio production told without a dedicated narrator follows the story of one historian who received permission from the Federation to travel to Ceti Alpha V to find what mire we may know about Khan 25 years after his interaction with Kirk. She boards Sulu's Excelsior and is assisted by an ear young Ensign Tuvok.

She finds all the old tapes made by Lt. McGyvors and we learn more than we every thought possible.

I found the original discovery of the Ceti eel disturbing but I might not have if I hadn't been plagued with nightmares of the earworms after seeing Star Trek II as a kid.

All in all, a fine story, some weird while that I could nitpick about, but you did not miss anything is you didn't hear it.

Another week 'till I get home and this is the only book I have left.

I liked in, In fact I really loved the IDEA of this book. A group of robot duplicates of SG-1 employed by the NID to try to steal technology from worlds the SGC has said can't be done. There are like six different versions of these duplicates each with slightly modified code some work better than others, and one goes completely rouge.

The execution, however, left me wanting. It got really confusing having several characters named "jack O'Neil" they tried to help you tell the difference, like Jackson Alpha, and Dan and one named O'Neil talking to another named Jack, but it wasn't consistent and I frequently forgot where I was, particularly with them switching time lines back and forth, I kept having to go back to the beginning of the chapter to find out where in time and space we were at. At least they had those clues built in. I thought it might make a good movie or T.V. episode, but I'm not sure how they'd do the ending in a way that would be both believable and not vomit inducing. Alas we'll never know.
