Reactions and Reviews
Classic/Continued Classic/SND zine. Strongest stories are two by Neiswender: “Fire and Ice,” in which, after Vincent is injured during the rescue of a troubled family, Catherine nurses him back to health; and “Thresholds,” a standard but competent SND (Catherine survives, amnesiac, eventually remembers Vincent) in which Diana appears briefly.
