Reactions and Reviews
1988
LION HEART -- short and very intense. That was the problem. Too short. In 8 pages I felt as it I'd run a marathon, and poor Kirk! He was put through the wringerl If you need that zine, this is the story- It's third place position seemed about right. The writing was very competent. From a new writer? Not a lot of sex, but tons of emotion. My pick for first place would have been the honorable mention, ANCHORAGE. [1]
1999
A familiar theme comes into play here and is reminiscent of "Gem" in that Kirk and Spock are the subjects of a cruel experiment. Kirk's anguish at Spock's apparent lifelessness is well written, if perhaps portrayed a bit too quickly in the story. [2]
