Dramatic and Moving
By SciFiChick
Young doctor Carol Marcus is researching an exciting field that could terraform barren planets and end hunger. But this latest project will take her away from her beau in Starfleet, Jim Kirk. The two are in love, but their career comes first for both of them. Meanwhile, botanist Leila Kalomi meets Starfleet officer Spock, while trying to find direction in her life and decides to join Marcus' team. But there are some that do not want the terraforming research to continue. And those with a grudge may be a danger to the project and the scientists themselves.
Star Trek fans are familiar with the events in the film Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, where we are introduced to Carol Marcus and Jim Kirk's son that he never knew, as well as a project known as Genesis. This story takes us back to the relationship between Carol and Jim and what happened between the two, years before Jim becomes captain of the Enterprise. The authors bring new light to events only hinted at in the movie. Here, we are able to see a moving but fated love story. Though I knew the eventual outcome of the lives of several of the characters, it didn't lessen the intensity or feeling.
Inception is an interesting story of love, loss, ambition, and the impact of scientific advancements. The characters are vivid and their stories poignant. This novel is quite different than others in the various series, but I found it wonderfully written and captivating. The story focuses more on personal interactions and drama than action and adventure, yet I found it very engaging and a quick read.

Could Have Been Better
By Michael Hickerson
"Star Trek" novels (and media tie-in novels in general) walk a very fine line when it comes to revisiting familiar elements from their original source material. This can especially be true when it comes to giving the details behind the romantic liaisons of various character that took place off screen but are referenced and alluded to on-screen in various episodes or movies.
To most "Trek" readers, Peter David's "Imzadi" is held up as the gold standard for filling in the details of a previous romance--in this case, giving us the history of Riker and Troi before they met again on the bridge of the starship Enterprise.
Then there's the latest entry in the "Trek" fiction line, "Inception" that wants to give us a bit of insight into the romance between Captain James T. Kirk and Carol Marcus as well as that of Spock and Leila Calomi before the original series begin. A novel that concentrated on one or the other might have worked better, but the usually reliable S.D. Perry and new writer Britta Dennison instead bring both romantic pairings together in such a way that strains the willing suspension of disbelief and, as a whole, drags down the story.
It also doesn't help that most fans know how these things will end and the authors don't offer any new insight or character nuances to help keep the story moving along.
Coming off a bad break-up, Leila joins Carol Marcus' scientific team that is looking to use a revolutionary and controversial element to help terraform part of Mars. A group of protesters seeks to stand in the way of the development, leading to a lot of passages that get bogged down in a debate over the merit of scientific progress and how it's achieved with Kirk offering the Starfleet party line and the group's leader opposing him. The story does try to offer a motivation for the leader, but since he's a relative new comer to the "Trek" universe it's hard to really emphasize as much with him as we might or the authors want us to.
Into all this, we discover that Carol and Kirk are in the midst of their romance and that Leila meets Spock and falls hopelessly in love with him.
What could have been a fascinating exploration of two influential women in the lives of two of the most popular characters in the "Trek" canon instead is nothing more than a lot of relationship angst for pages on end. Carol worries about how to tell Kirk her big news and how he'll react while Leila pines for the emotionally unavailable Spock.
In many ways, the concept behind "Inception" is an interesting one, but as I read the novel I kept thinking it might have worked better as a short story. Weight in at just over 300 pages, the novel is fairly lightweight both in page count and in storyline. The story is a fascinating experiment but one that, unfortunately, comes up short.

Back to the Sixties!
By A Forest Fan
This is one of the first Star Trek novels I've read that attempts to treat the culture the original series was made in its proper chronological context. Star Trek TOS was made during the late sixties, an era of women defining themselves in new roles, and men attempting to come to grips (in Kirk's case, literally) with these new professional workplace women. Cultural changes occur in cycles, as Jadzia Dax notes when she is putting on an old style Starfleet uniform ("Trials and Tribble-ations"), "And women wore less".
This novel treats the setting of the sixties that the show was made in as an actual historical era for the 23rd century. I can't emphasize how original this is. If you read a Trek novel written in the eighties, the relations between men and women were written like they were in the eighties. The same for most any Trek novel written for the past three decades. Few of them capture the FEEL of the TV series. It was in the sixties, even though it was in the future. Inception breaks this assumption of anachronistic behavior. This novel treats the 23rd century as if it really was the way it was portrayed on Star Trek TOS. What a concept! No historical revisionism necessary.
The book is largely from the perspective of Leila Kalomi and Doctor Carol Markus. We also get insights on what is going on in Kirk's head when he's dealing with women (a bit less sophomoric than Chris Pine's rendition). And there are 'Redpeace' environmentalists who want to sabotage Marcus' pre-Genesis experiments on Mars. Eventually, Kirk and Spock have to come to the rescue of their brainy ladies, just like on the old TV show. The only reason I give this book 4 stars instead of 5 is that this novel is not a direct connection to Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan. The authors leave themselves just a bit of wiggle room for a sequel, so that may be the closure fans want (if they are connecting the dots), but maybe not such a bad thing after all.
Oh, and I love the 'age degression' of Bibi Besch to her twenties on the book cover. I wish Pocket Books would credit their artists, why keep them anonymous? This novel didn't have any grand pretenses of saving the universe, it was a small personal story of people's lives and how they are trying to connect.
