Excalibur Bk. 3 : Restoration

Although presumed dead in New Frontier #9 and #10, Captain MacKenzie Calhoun makes his return in this third book of the Excalibur trilogy. Unbeknownst to Starfleet, Calhoun escaped the cataclysmic demise of the U.S.S. Excalibur, only to end up marooned on the primitive outback world of Yakaba. There, he eventually befriends Shula, a woman with the strange and inexplicable ability to summon rain for her parched frontier community. Shula's powers, however, have made her the target of jealous and avaricious enemies who will stop at nothing to seize control of her special gifts -- or destroy them forever. Trapped on a hostile world, Calhoun is drawn into a life-or-death struggle against relentless foes. Meanwhile, in his absence, former First Officer Shelby struggles with her command -- the U.S.S. Exeter -- as the adventures of the popular crew continue....
