Reactions and Reviews
1979
... a stands-up-on-its-own-but-can't-wait-for-the-sequel is called 'In Some Strange Land' that deals with a nun from the eugenics time period and her encounter with Spock[1]
1985
A Spock-and-a-woman story but those of us who are allergic to such things can relax. The woman in question is a nun. Spock is thrown back in time to just after the Eugenics Wars. He is taken for a Eugenics monster. Sister Patti Wells overcomes her instinctive revulsion and helps him escape back to his own time. The sequel in 'Nome 2' is a nice counterpoint for Sister Wells is then herself 'In Some Strange Land'. It is an interesting story of a woman standing by her creed despite the fact that she is still fearful and dubious of the 'monster.' I certainly haven't read anything like it before and Spock's experience of a nun's perception is fascinating. [2]
