Well Mary, I may have come close to losing my job due to missing a meeting I was supposed to present at because I was too engaged in your fic but 1) I still have my job and 2) it is not at all your fault that I thought I could read “just a bit, as a treat” during my work day so let me end with a hearty congratulations for writing such an epic fic.

This is my most favorite of your stories yet! The most endearing OCs (ALICE!), exciting plot, and beautiful love story. It was clever and funny and heartbreaking and so, so creative. Additionally, I was thoroughly impressed, and moved, by how you portrayed Trip's Christianity, something very difficult to do in Trek.
Altogether an incredible piece of fiction. I'm adding it to my favorites so that I know to come back and read it again someday.
Thank you for your brilliant efforts!

I doubt you still see reviews here, but just in case...
Since reading this a few years ago it has become one of my comfort stories that I return to now and then. Thank you :) ~Jenny

What an amazing story. Captivating. I was hooked the entire time.

Love Your Story!
Excellent work - thanks for writing and sharing it with Us!

One of the best fic i have had the pleasure to read. Highly recommend this FIc.

Interesting story.

Huh... I don't know why this story has only 313 reviews. It is absolutely fantastic!

You have this amazing ability to create supportive characters who are believable and just as interesting as the main characters. Usually when reading fanfiction, I find most supporting characters quite hard to read, but I loved the entire crew of the Tempest! I was sad with each death and when we delved into their POVs, I was always left wanting more.

The tech and engineering parlance you wrote about was incredible. I could believe all of that - but I'm no engineer or physicist. I really appreciate the lengths you went to, to make this story authentic.

I really loved the relationship between Trip and T'Pol. Even though they'd only known each other for a few weeks, I felt like much more time had passed. Basically, their relationship did not feel rushed. I think the ending is adorable - with T'Pol having to convince Trip to have children.

Overall, this story was excellent. I've REALLY enjoyed reading it.

Wow! Did not expect to get pulled into reading the entire thing! Loved it!
...and now I need stories of them with children!

Amazing story

An 'Enterprise' universe - Tom Clancy style! (or should that be Dale Brown?)
Read this over three days and really enjoyed the somewhat darker characterisations of Trip and Archer.
The pace of the writing is just like a best-selling techno-thriller from the 80/90s and the OCs slot right into your universe.
I wonder if this needs a prequel, or would Trip's 'journey of self-awareness' be too dark?

this story could of been so much better :) i had to skip chapters they were so boring

bit to much conflict before the actual conflict dont you think?

hurry up this story ffs

Just spent my entire weekend reading this.

Totally worth it. One of my favorite ST:E stories I've ever read.

I will now hunt down and read anything you have ever written.
