|<td> Though in name a book about Khan, most of this book is setting the stage. The protagonists are Gary Seven and Roberta Lincoln from another TOS episode dealing with the 20th century, Assignment: Earth. That was intended as a pilot, but wasn't picked up as a series. However, for purposes of this novel it's treated sort of as if it was, in that in the intervening years they've had many crazy adventures. It sort of feels like... a Star Trek Torchwood, in that it's odd that they'd find themselves mixed in with such bizarre things in modern/recent times, but part of their job ''is'' to keep those strange things from causing harm. | |<td> Though in name a book about Khan, most of this book is setting the stage.

<p>Anyway, they end up infiltrating an advanced genetic engineering project, the Chrysalis Project, which has gone far beyond what others of the time period have been able to; in fact, they've already had results. At this time in 1974 Khan is just 4, and going by "Noon". Seven and Lincoln end up whisking the kids away and destroying Chrysalis by overloading a nuclear reactor there. Khan's mother goes down with the ship, so to speak. | <p>Anyway, they end up infiltrating an advanced genetic engineering project, the Chrysalis Project, which has gone far beyond what others of the time period have been able to; in fact, they've already had results.
