Reactions and Reviews

"The Last Survivor" gives an excellent reason for the new Klingons, and a bit more of a glimpse of the ’new’ Spock as well. [1]

"The Last Survivor" was the most powerful of all the stories in STARDATE, and it actually had a moral, something you don't see in many fan written stories. [2]

"The Last Survivor" was well-written, but I dislike stories with sad endings that inspire only horror, not sympathy from me. Your trivia was very tough. [3]

{{Quotation2| Nomad's "The Last Survivor" is excellent, though a bit bloody. A touch of this is acceptable on occasion, though.

Nomad's "The Last Survivor" I liked really well. It might've ended a bit abruptly, but perhaps there was nothing else that could be done. I would like to see Kirk's landing party to the planet with him as a lieutenant, but I don't think anyone has written one like that. [4]

Nomad's "The Last Survivor" is among the post powerful of all the stories on the website, and it actually had a moral, something you don't see in many fan written stories.[4]
