Reactions and Reviews

Excerpts from the following review are quoted in accordance with Fanlore's fair use principles. The entire review can be read here.

This zine is devoted to the less popular characters of B7, namely anyone other than Blake, Avon, Vila, Cally, and Servlan! The fiction features, in order, Travis (the editor's fave), Tarrant (her second fave-- but I don't think he'd qualify as a "forgotten" character today!), Soolin, Jenna, Gan, and some of the guest characters. Dayna doesn't star in any of the stories, but a couple of poems are devoted to her.

As usual it's hard to choose a favorite story, but I do especially like Leokadija's ironically titled "Happy Ending," which is actually an angsty death story for Gan. On the smut front, Roxie Ray's series develops a nice Vila/Soolin relationship, which is amusingly parodied in Anne Collins Smith's story.....

....Recommended for fans of any of these characters.
