As reviewed by Nancy Spungeon


Honestly and truly, there's nothing really special about this story despite its spectacular premise and events. Each member of 'N Sync does something to "piss off management", and JC and Lance save the best for (almost) last. The action could have been written a bit more vividly, because as the story climaxed I didn't find myself getting very caught up in it or excited.

The story almost comes across as het in the way that the little bit of slash involved is right at the end, and Lance's dialogue (written in first person) gets so dramatic at points that I expect him to faint away in JC's arms.

I guess I really don't have much to say here. Good story, but nothing to really get excited about. It has an excellent plot line, though I feel it could have been a bit better developed.
