Spock first came to know Saavik as a feral child roaming the ruins of the deserted Romulan colony, Hellguard. In the chapter on Saavik, we learn of the complicated history between the Vulcans and the Romulans, both of whom have a shrouded shared ancestry. Introduced to audiences in The Wrath of Khan (then portrayed by Kirstie Alley) and making brief reappearances in The Search for Spock and The Voyage Home (this time played by Robin Curtis), the half Vulcan, half Romulan Lieutenant Saavik served as ship navigator aboard the USS Enterprise. Among the summations of his pointy eared kin, perhaps the most interesting is Spock’s recounting of his past with Saavik. We read the requisite pages on Spock’s stern Vulcan father, Ambassador Sarek, his human mother, Amanda Grayson, and his questionable half-brother Sybok.
Spock is presented as a “t’san a’lay” which roughly translates from Vulcan as a “wisdom book.” The text is broken up into several chapters, each chapter titled after and centered around an important figure in Spock’s life. Spock allows we the reader to learn the life story of our favorite Vulcan in his own words.Įdited (and likely written) by Una McCormack ( Picard: The Last Best Hope, Doctor Who: The Way Through the Woods), The Autobiography of Mr. Now, courtesy of Titan Books, The Autobiography of Mr. We’ve seen him live, we’ve seen him die, we’ve seen him live again.

We’ve seen him interact with several ship crews over the course of five plus decades. Appearing in the original series, the original cast films, the Abrams films (portrayed by both Leonard Nimoy and Zachary Quinto), and Discovery (Ethan Peck), not to mention two consecutive episodes of The Next Generation, Spock is arguably the most prolific character that the Star Trek IP has to offer.
