Reactions and Reviews

"Love and War" by Jeane DeVore is a fifty-page post-Centero Jenna and Blake story. Servalan hatches a plot to trap Blake by capturing Jenna and getting him to engineer her rescue. There are some good personal sequences between Blake and Jenna but the plot has at least one large illogical hole which undermines its credibility.[1]

I generally don't like Blake/Jenna fics. This is a Blake/Jenna fic in which Servalan and Travis capture Jenna because they know that will mess Blake up. I'm a hypocrite so if this fic had gone more like this:

"It must be the one who is most important to him. The one he can't refuse to rescue - no matter how great the risks."

"Who?"

Servalan sighed in exasperation. "Use your head, Travis! He's gay for Avon, who is also the only one aboard the Liberator who knows how the ship works!"

I probably would have liked it better. As it was, I felt it was a baggy and could use more characterisation. It's also long - I skimmed it.[2]
