Reactions and Reviews
SHARED SILENCES is a sequel to Shi Jarea which appeared in issue #1, and was my favorite story in that issue. I was very disappointed that that sequel here didn't hold up next to it. This is a very short story that precedes both JOURNEY TO BABEL and FOR THE WORLD IS HOLLOW... It's a bit confusing, not very clearly written and jumps around too much for me. But I did feel for and with the characters, so it wasn't a complete failure. Perhaps if I hadn't liked the original story so much, I'd have liked this one better. [1]
(11 pages) - Spock and McCoy are bonded. McCoy finds out that he is ill, and nudges Kirk to join the bond he has with Spock...soft, slightly melancholic, not very explicit. [2]
