Reactions and Reviews
‘The Sun is No Friend of the Dead’ – run-of-the-mill torture milieu story; Kirk gets tortured past the breaking point, hemophilia and nearly drowned; all for poorly plotted reasons. The three or four other plot threads are not tied together well. In fact the whole thing reads like the author was trying to use up leftovers from her ideafile.[1]
