The Final Farewell is a gen Star Trek: TOS 108-page novel by Cynthia Broadwater.
From a Zine Flyer
Swept from the discipline of Kolinahr into the emotional release of V'ger, Spock finds himself on the verge of an emotional breakdown. Kirk, in a career crisis, cannot help. Enter the Romulan Commander.
The long-awaited CYNTHIA BROADWATER novel, THE FINAL FAREWELL, is now ready for press, to be released in late October.
THE FINAL FAREWELL is not only excellent Star Trek fan fiction but it also marks a major debut that could change fan publishing as we know it, for THE FINAL FAREWELL is to be released in Hardback! FANDOM PUBLICATIONS is proud to premiere its new line of hardback fan fiction with CYNTHIA BROADWATER'S, THE FINAL FAREWELL.
CYNTHIA BROADWATER, who was reviewed as 'a new and welcome talent in fandom' with her first FANDOM HOUSE zine, THE FIFTH YEAR, the zine that filled the void between the Star Trek television series and the first motion picture, now deals us an adventure to fill the gap between Star Trek The Motion Picture and The Wrath of Kahn!

Excerpt
"What do you know of Hellguard?"
"Never heard of it," McCoy answered.
"I have," Kirk leaned forward. "It had been a Romulan experimental station. They deserted it leaving personnel behind." "Leaving the old, infirmed and children ages five to twelve, some six hundred of them, half Romulan, half Vulcan."
"But that's impossible!" McCoy interrupted.
Jim turned to him surprised. "Unfortunate perhaps, Bones, but not impossible."
"Jim, you don't understand..."
Lara took up the thread of her story. "What Dr.McCoy is referring to is a matter of Vulcan biology. Vulcans are only fertile during the height of hormone activity."
"Pon Far?" The words were out of Jim's mouth before he could stop them.
