Reactions and Reviews

'Soul Brothers' by J.G. MacDonald follows the usual pattern [of slave stories]. Kirk, raped by the Klingons, is about to be sold to the highest bidder, Spock posing as a Romulan has been sent to the planet to "buy" any available humans. Rescued from a fate worse than death, Kirk falls in love with his rescuer, and the inevitable bonding takes place. My problem is that I do not like slave stories and that colours my thinking. Lovers of such stories will no doubt enjoy them, as all three stories are very well written.

This is an interesting A/U story which, at the start is very reminiscent of Syn Ferguson's "Taaz Avine" in THE PRICE & THE PRIZE. Spock & McCoy are passing themselves off as a Romulan & his mate looking for Human slaves. They find a man being savagely raped by several Klingons in turn while a boy watches in horror. Spock busy both of the Humans & they take them back to Spock s ship, the T'Saaah. Kirk & McCoy are old friends from way back. Spock is a widower with a young son, S'kin'la. Uhura is Spock's adopted sister. The rest of the story is concerned with the interrelationships of the main characters.
