Here are my thoughts on the stories.
"First, Do No Harm" - actually read this in the "Shinsei, Shinsei" comic earlier. Still worth reading again. "Your mouth runneth over." LOL McCoy befriends everybody. Fixing what they broke - Jendra is noble.
"The Landing Party" - Poor Sulu. Got thrown in the deep end with this one. That's how he learns to swim, though.
"Official Record" - Good for Pavel. I was surprised when Wilder finally admitted what he'd done. McCoy's barely been gone, and already they're desperate enough to torture?
"Fracture" - A well-thought out story. Very episode-like. Poor Kirk with the cigars! At least this hero saw the errors of his ways.
"Chaotic Response" - Too bad this wasn't what we got instead of "Spock's Brain". That maze...
"As Others See Us" - @Christopher every time I turn a corner, a new layer of "what's really going on here?!" Took me a second to realize the newcomers were Kirk and co. Everybody gets a dressing down.
"See No Evil" - more poignant than ever. Spock's explanation of what happened when people find things offensive is as concise as I've ever heard it put. Uhura is brilliant and sympathetic.
"The Leader" - Again, so episode-perfect. Glad Kerby made it, though the red shirt this time. Poor Anders.
"Ambition" - All this interpersonal conflict makes it more interesting. Kirk and Spock miss everything. No bathroom breaks?
"Devices and Desires" - Who would have guessed that Spock is in Starfleet because of a bug? LOL Spock's "telemarketer" style sales pitch. No wonder the Klingons moved on. What kind of voice do you think he put on for that?
"Where Everybody Knows Your Name" - So Denebians have pesudo-Swedish last names? McCoy and Scotty probably wish they'd stayed on the Lexington. Bones nerve pinched someone?
"Make-Believe" - Poor child. So Howard wasn't chosen as their last name because of Beverly Crusher, nee Howard (red hair)
