In my personal chronology, this book starts about 6 weeks after “Turnabout Intruder” with a couple of other novels in between, but your mileage may vary. It immediately precedes The Latter Fire by James Swallow, and I assume TAS begins shortly after that. (English)

Balok’s family cell’s interest in ethnology and folklore is a nod to TNG: Gulliver’s Fugitives, which featured a pair of First Federation ethnologists whose study of alien (and human) myth and lore was a significant plot point. I’m implicitly suggesting that those characters are related to Balok. (English)

Nored gave a wistful smile. “Carter and I once spent four months on a relief mission to Pangea.” Sulu was surprised. Nored rarely spoke of her engagement to Carter Winston, who had been the Federation’s wealthiest philanthropist before his disappearance five years ago. (English)

The “mental suggestion technique” Kirk is referring to was seen in “A Taste of Armageddon” (Eminiar) and “By Any Other Name” (the Kelvan settlement) – a rare instance of inter-episode continuity in TOS, since the latter episode actually referenced the former incident. (English)

“Irina” is Irina Galliulin from “The Way to Eden.” Way back in Ex Machina, I established that Chekov’s absence from the animated series was due to an extended leave he took to explore whether a relationship with Irina could work. Here, I get to set that up and maintain continuity among my books. (English)
