There are not many
published reviews of Decalog 3: Consequences. The reviewers in the
newsstand press picked out ‘Moving On’ as one of the highlights of the
collection.
Similarly, there are few reviews on the online bookstores.
On amazon.com, Keith
Fletcher from AB,
Jill Sherwin (GallifreyOne
reviews) said: “The stories that stood out to me were first, “Moving On” by
Peter Anghelides, a modern-day Sarah Jane/K9 & Company story told in leaps
and bounds of time… dark and actually quite as depressing as its title, a
passage from the innocence of the time Sarah Jane shared with the Doctor(s) to
life after him.”
Also on GallifreyOne, Lawrence Conquest observed: “a fun story and effective on its own terms”, but
thought that the link to an element of the preceding story (one of the themes
of the book) was “the one weak element […] a poor adversary.”
Sean Gaffney
disagreed. On his own Happy Guy
review page, he said: “Great Sarah... I loved the villain, and the bibliography
is, of course, wonderful”. Despite also describing it as “really downbeat”, he
rated it 8/10.
