Reactions and Reviews
"Hot August Friskies" [sic], is a multi-media slash zine, covering everything from Alien Nation to Young Guns,
The two QL stories only make up 11 pages of the zine, but one of them is very good and the other is exceptional.
"Bahama Beach Bum" is just a sweet little sex story. Sam and Al, lovers, take a break from the QL Project. It's well-written, slight, and cute.
"You Can Call Me Al," by Jenny Sandor, is incredibly neat — I'm nominating it for a Stiffie Award. It's a during the series story, done completely from Al's point-of-view, which explains how Sam's meddling in history changes reality every time Sam jumps, to the point where Al's marital status, address, and sexual orientation is up for grabs. In this particular reality, for example, 'Donna' is Al's dog — let the psychologists chew on that one for a while — and he and Sam, he discovers, are lovers. The whole story would make a marvelous prelude to along, long novel — I hope Jenny Sandor writes more![1]
