Reactions and Reviews
1988
THE GIFT OF DREAMS is a story that starts out making the reader believe one thing, then by the end of the story, comes full circle. Written in a sparse yet effective style, this story centers primarily on "the death bond", and on why Kirk and Spock disagree on this aspect of their relationship. A chilling little piece. This writer has a way with images and with provoking emotion in the reader. [1]
1989
This story is touching, but I would have appreciated a description of how Kirk and Spock achieved their partial bond. It is certainly credible that a bond developed during a deep meld while they were asleep, but a well thought-out description of this event would have been fascinating and unusual. It would have made the story immeasurably better. [2]
