Reactions and Reviews
I would agree with Doreen [editor of "Duet"] when she says that it is both different and well written. It concerns an android "brought to life", using serum from a black widow spider, the creature's capture of Kirk and his subsequent rescue by Spock. It is difficult to do justice to the story in a review, it should be read. Although complete in itself, it did appear as if the ending left room for a sequel. [1]
Latrodectus Mactans - Le'oni. This story is something new in that it is a K/S horror story & definitely not for the squeamish. Our heroes, while waiting rendezvous with the Enterprise, decide to explore a little of a lawless planet called Tranzell. They venture into a nightclub where Kirk is mesmerised by a black dancer with shining skin & flaming red hair. Kirk has never been so turned on in his life & doesn't even notice that the place she leads him to his her lair. Poor Kirk! The creature he is with is part android/part spider & this particular species of spider eats the male after mating with him. Imagine the look on Kirk's face when he is lying there sated & exhausted & he notices the black fangs protruding from her mouth & the fact that the room is covered in a large spiders web! The creature is a creation of an alien called Creel &, judging by the ending, there could be a sequel. This story contains graphic straight sex as well as K/S. The title is Latin for Black Widow Spider. [2]
