"Fair Exchange", by Sarah Shrader, is a post-STIV situation where Spock accompanies a depressed Kirk to his beach home outside of San Francisco. The Vulcan helps the human redlscover their relationship and overcome his guilt over all that has happened. I had some problems reading this in that I sometimes wasn't sure if "he", "him", or like" referred to Kirk or Spock, and I always find it distracting when the narrator refers to Kirk as "Jim". I also thought this story tried to cover too much psychological ground with its brief flashbacks.[1]
1998
Set after the courtroom scene of STIV, it portrays a complex tale of the human psyche, particularly Kirk’s. It gives us a view into Kirk, his strengths and weaknesses. Simultaneously we also learn of Spock’s growth through his dealings with Kirk and his own humanity. Very captivating. [2]
