James T. Kirk in all his glory

Still remember the day we got our first color TV and one of the first programs we watched Star Trek in all it's colorful glory. William Shatner gives a good narration and keeps your interest. Funny, Sad, Interesting, Informative.......... it's well worth your listening time if your a Trekkie fan

Going back in time to the birth of Star Trek

I loved it !!!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes it was !

Any additional comments?

William Shatner was amazing , and the book absolutely an phenomenal read !

Very interesting but "Kirk" talks too fast!

What did you love best about Star Trek Memories?

I really loved hearing the back story and the fight to get the series done. The only negative is that Shatner sometimes talks so fast I have to play it back to understand him.

surprisingly funny and interesting.

I really enjoyed this historical look at the life of Gene Roddenberry, the struggle to sell the Star Trek storyline, the search for just the right chemistry of actors and the behind the scenes of my most favorite, and not so favorite episodes. Having it narrated by Bill was the best part. Loved his humor. I recommend to trek fans and non trekkies alike.

Interesting

Shatner's reading seems rushed and oddly disinterested, but despite that it's still interesting and enjoyable.

Great read--buy the book and skip Shatner's voice.

Would you listen to Star Trek Memories again? Why?

I would never listen to this again. Ever. You'd think that Shatner would breathe some emotion into these tales, since they're from his own life. You'd be wrong.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Star Trek Memories?

I honestly can't tell you one of the most memorable moments. The audiobook version has ruined the good memories I have of reading the print copy.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Shatner sounded less enthused than my college students reading about 5th-century Gregorian chant. I honestly wish I'd never listened to him read it.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

I wanted to be able to listen to it all in one sitting because of the stories but I couldn't do it because of Shatner's emotionless prattle.

Any additional comments?

I'm a Trekkie through and through--my Uhura dress remains in my closet even though I outgrew it years ago. My starship blueprints are at my dad's house but my encyclopedia, TNG Companion, and TNG trading cards are all safe in my home. But I encourage anyone even remotely interested in Trek to avoid this audiobook. Buy the print version, read it in your own voice (or your fave Shatner voice), and enjoy the photos. Don't waste a dime on this version.

Shatner is entertaining as always

As someone who grew up with Star Trek, it was very interesting to hear all the stories of how the show was created originally and what happened during those first three years of production. And Shatner delivers it with aplomb.

Great

Very interesting to get Mr. Shatner's view of these events. Even if you are not a fan of his, you learn a lot about Star Trek and filmmaking in general. The only downfall is that it is abridged.
