Not so. This book, jumping between the "present" and Kirk's past as a teenager, shows his inauspicious beginnings as a surly, rebellious juvenile delinquent. It also shows the developments in his relationship with his father. Diane Carey has always been one of the best Star Trek writers at expanding upon established character traits in plausible yet unforeseen ways, and this book is no exception.

As James T. Kirk prepares to retire from a long and illustrious Starfleet career, events in a distant part of the Federation draw him back to a part of the galaxy he had last visited as a young man -- a mysterious world called Faramond whose name takes Kirk on a journey back to his youth.
At sixteen, Kirk is troubled, estranged from his father, and has a bleak future. However, a trip into space with Kirk's father George and Starfleet legend Captain Robert April changes James Kirk's life forever, when a simple voyage becomes a deadly trap. Soon Kirk and his father find themselves fighting for their lives against a vicious and powerful enemy.
Before the voyage ends, father and son will face life and death together, and James T. Kirk will get a glimpse of the future and his own Best Destiny...
