The Darkness Drops Again

The Darkness Drops Again is the fourth book of the Mere Anarchy series.

Summary

 * From the publisher:


 * The rebuilding of Mestiko is starting to make progress: the atmosphere is partially restored, and Federation scientists are introducing new methods of replenishing the planet's biosphere. But their efforts are being stymied by the growing power of the mar-Atyya, who shun all offworlders.


 * The arrival of the Starship Enterprise under the command of James T. Kirk proves less than fortuitous, as the ship becomes a flashpoint for all of Mestiko's troubles. Now Raya elMora, the leader of the planetary council, finds herself facing exile – which could spell doom for Mestiko...

Background Information

 * This eBook takes place after the events of setting it in the late 2270s.  This is due to the fact that Kirk essentially retired from Starfleet when he met Antonia and upon his return the Enterprise was destroyed in the events of the second through fourth movies.
