Reactions and Reviews
1990
This was different. Weird. I honestly can't decide if I liked it and if not, why not? Yet I like 'different' stories. Maybe it needed to be longer, and they needed to be together more before they fell in love. [1]
1991
The Tamer by Sarah B. Leonard is a hoot. Kirk on a ranch (don't know where nor care) with an untamable horse. A mysterious elegant eared magician (horsetamer) and his alien retinue (Sulu, Uhura etc.) appear and with a flick of his hands (an exciting meld) the beast is subdued. Fortunately it takes more than that to tame Kirk. This story cries for a sequel. [2]
