Reactions and Reviews
Another wonderful bdsm but exploring it from an entirely alien perspective, taking an old and commonplace theme (two people having crashed in hostile territory and needing each other to survive) and very effectively avoiding thetypical theme of "befriend the aliens after rocky beginnings" found in such stories by literally changing one of the characters into an alien. Not only that but also changing their gender in the process. It is done so logically
and matter-of-factly that the reader is drawn both by the horrifying aspect of the changes, as well as by curiousity over the possible outcome. I've often said I will ignore a hundred typos for a ripping good story, that is what this is. It has many typo's and for those who are grammar-and-punctuation queens, it might pall, but if you can manage to read past those, at the heart you of it all you will find an intriguing story with countless untold possibilities that will leave you pondering long after you read it.
