Reactions and Reviews

1991

I felt Spock's pain. I saw his tears. I heard the love in McCoy's voice and saw the love unfolding in Spock. What a wonderful writer she is.[1]

1997

Spock keeping vigil at Kirk’s bed for days in a row? What happened to taking care of the ship? Getting continuous updates on Kirk’s condition and staying with him when his duty permits—okay. No matter how hard it is, the ship has to come first. Under those circumstances, he has to be a Starfleet officer first and a friend second. He can’t—just like that—shirk his duty. [2]
