Star Trek: The Wrath Of Khan by Vonda N. McIntyre
5.0
Quite an entertaining read, though I had more than a little trouble focusing on the book instead of visualizing the movie. I did enjoy seeing the author flesh out the movie's characters, though. I especially enjoyed her use of Joachim; limiting the viewpoint of Khan's followers to Joachim alone was a masterful decision that put Khan's ever-encroaching madness into perspective.
I also enjoyed her exploration of Saavik's history and Romulan heritage, even though these aspects were never addressed in the movie, or even mentioned. Much the same could be said for Kirk, David, and many other characters in the novel.
Overall, a great character study that happened to be overshadowed by a great film.
