Summary

Summary from Kathy Resch:

[This novel is] a complete slash novelization of the two episodes 'The Phantom Strikes' and 'Return of the Phantom'. There have been more stories written about the two Phantom episodes than any other, but none of them straight or slash, have ever seemed to offer the whole story, or fully to have expored the depth of Krueger's tragic, undying love and its parallel in the great love between Crane and Nelson. No Greater Love sets the matter right in Lindar's unique style, and shows just how much more can be read between the lines than we ever get to see on the screen.

This labour of love took Lindar two years to create, and the result is something that has never been attempted before - an all out effort to make sense out of the incredible, and fill in gaps that were impossible.

When Lee is taken over by Krueger, what happens to Lee's mind? He's not gone far, because he returns every time Krueger leaves. Is he overpowered and unaware? Our strong willed and courageous captain? No way, he's in there fighting tooth and nail to claim his body back. But can Lee forgave Harry for that shot which almost killed him? Will Harry ever be able to forgive himself for allowing Krueger to take over his will and force the attempt on Lee's life? All the answers you ever wanted are right here.

No Greater Love has true love, sex and angst; all the familiar crew plus Krueger, Lani and Maria; mental struggles between Krueger's spirit and the minds of Crane and Nelson; the ultimate battle between good and evil. Seaview sinks, Mulayo explodes, Doc Jamieson rushes around trying to hold everyone together... there's hardly a moment to draw a breath. In fact it's just like the true Voyage episodes - only better by far.
