Marooned by Captain James T. Kirk on Ceti Alpha V, Khan Noonien Singh and his followers begin building a new civilization, but this strange new world harbors a number of secrets.

As they acclimate to the beauty and promise of their new home, Khan and his people also encounter deadly dangers waiting to catch them unawares.

Khan’s nascent colony celebrates its first pregnancy, but they’ve also suffered several losses to their number while a new threat to the entire planet reveals itself.

Khan and his people prepare for inescapable global calamity, and learn they are no longer alone on this world. Are these mysterious new arrivals enemies, or possible allies?
