Reactions and Reviews
What an unusual and very interesting story. And what an unusual attitude for guards and prison wardens to have, yet the explanation of why they were that way was perfectly logical. I believe what I especially liked was the fact that there was no drag to the story. Kirk didn't hug his unhappiness to himself for too long a time, and when it was necessary, Spock didn't cling to his Vulcanism, but opened up for Kirk. A refreshing story. [1]
The Prisoners by Sharon Pillsbury is a tale of unrequited love, despair and resignation. Our boys are forced to crash land on a planet where the slightest transgression results in life imprisonment working either in the desert breaking rocks or in the mines where deadly fumes reduce your life span. The governor, himself a prisoner, tries to rule as leniently as he can, but the regime gives him and the guards the right to take any prisoner to bed, and you‘ve guessed it, Jim stands out from the crowd. With the threat of Spock‘s welfare as a lever Jim is forced to allow himself to be used night after night, until.....now read on. [2]
