From an Ad
From Media Monitor: "Data awakens to find himself a laboratory subject on a backwards planet. Unfortunately, the researchers don't believe him when he announces his identity."
Summary
Cyndi Bayless Overstreet, by far one of the most talented and popular writers in Star Trek: The Next Generation fandom, brings you her expert look at the character of Data, this time focusing on his love-hate relationship with his "evil twin" brother, Lore. Along with her usually well-developed original characters, she provides us with new insights into both their individual natures and their connections to each other.Also featured in rorriM/Image is the talented artwork of Margaret O'Quinn, who is as deft at capturing the visual images of Data and Lore (no, they're not the same) as Cyndi is at capturing the differences in their personalities. Together, Cyndi and Maggie make for an outstanding team.

Reactions and Reviews
While being held captive for reasons which I won't reveal, Data struggles to maintain his dignity under utterly demeaning circumstances; picture "The Most Toys" without the restraint of FCC regulations. Ultimately, Data "bonds" with a conscience-striken female captor. Highest recommendation -- well-written and emotional gripping. However, be warned -- it is extremely lurid, and I read it with "fascinated horror." (Sample line, spoken to the inconsolable android: I'm sure your new owners will provide you with an excellent home.") [rated] Adult. [2]
