He does not go through it in detail, but he does talk about it.

Guess I'll have to buy the book but is Lucas "fair" to it or critical?

There is a review of Lucas's book by Southern Presbyterian scholar Nick Willborn in The Confessional Presbyterian 2 (2006) 172-175.

In my opinion, Dabney's ST suffers from being far too philosophical at the beginning, so it is hard to read cover to cover.
