Reactions and Reviews
Notable in this vast catchall of a zine are Rebecca Marcus' thoughtful essay, “Unspoken Guardians,” on the relationship between Vincent and Father as shown throughout the series; among the fiction, a notable item is Cynthia Hatch's “There is a Season,” in which V is unwilling to debate with Father the mysteries of fate vs. free will...on the night he first finds C. Among the poetry, the work of Sandie Dapoz and Melissa Cook stands out.[1]
