As the crew grieves for Mister Spock, the awesome Genesis Device, now controlled by the Federation, has transformed an inert nebula into a new planet teeming with life. But Genesis can also destroy existing worlds. The creators of the device want it given freely to the galaxy. But Starfleet Command fears that it will become a force of evil. And the enemies of the Federation will not rest until they seize it—as their most powerful weapon in the battle to conquer the galaxy!

Review of 'Star Trek III : The search for Spock' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Just like the ST2 novelization (of which this is basically a continuation of like the movie, only more so), it fills in more than we ever see on screen. With that, here we see the scenes that Kirk only refers to in his log entry - when McCoy starts loosing it, how and when David and Saavik leave the ship early to join the science ship back to Genesis. But also a little more with Uhura, and why we never see Amanda in the movie. A nice addition to the story of the movie, which I really think is an underrated one to begin with (I for one, don't believe in the the odd ones suck curse thing).
