"The most critical period in Earth's history." -- Gary Seven,
Supervisor 194
Even centuries later, the final decades of the twentieth century
are still regarded -- by those who know the truth of what really
happened -- as one of the darkest and most perilous chapters in the
history of humanity. Now, as an ancient and forbidden technology
tempts mankind once more, Captain James T. Kirk of the "Starship
Enterprise(TM)" must probe deep into the secrets of the past, to
discover the true origins of the dreaded Eugenics Wars -- and of
perhaps the greatest foe he has ever faced.
1974 A.D. An international consortium of the world's top scientists
have conspired to create the Chrysalis Project, a top-secret
experiment in human genetic engineering. The project's goal is
nothing less than the creation of a new, artificially improved
breed of men and women: smarter, faster, stronger than ordinary
human beings, a super-race to take command of the entire planet.
Gary Seven, an undercover operative for an advanced alien species,
is alarmed by the project's objectives; he knows too well the
apocalyptic consequences of genetic manipulation. With his trusted
agents, Roberta Lincoln and the mysterious Isis, he will risk life
and limb to uncover Chrysalis' insidious designs and neutralize the
awesome threat that the Project poses to the future.
But he may already be too late. One generation of super-humans has
already been conceived. As the years go by, Seven watches with
growing concern as the children of Chrysalis -- in particular, a
brilliant youth named Khan Noonien Singh -- grow to adulthood. Can
Khan's dark destiny be averted -- or is Earth doomed to fight a
global battle for supremacy?
THE EUGENICS WARS: Volume One is an engrossing and fast-paced
thriller that explores the secret history of the twentieth century
-- and the rise of the conqueror known as Khan.
