New Fic Recommendations: The Phoned-in Sequel - Foxboy - 03-02-2010
Well, the current Rec thread was getting long in the tooth:
Long Sabrina Online Self-insert whose value may be inflated in my head from "Early Fanfic Buzz":
Identity Crisis

Warning, fic is ten years old, and may include dated memes because of this.

Does it count as fic if it's original alternate history?

EDIT: Okay, from the begining, I was completely unexpecting of the events in Chapter 5. THAT was completely and utterly cracktastic.

"The Middle Ground" has been recommended before, I believe - at least I've been reading it for a while, and I'm fairly certain I got the link from these forums. Quite good.
- Sweno - 03-13-2010
yup, I've been posting links in the update threads as I notice new chapters.
But it's good to see I'm not alone in the enjoyment of "The Middle Ground"

Reds: A Revolutionary Timeline and the sequel, A Red Dawn: American Revolution an Rebirth over on AH.com. The premise: McKinley isn't assassinated, Teddy Roosevelt and his Progressive reforms get marginalized, and what follows from that. Includes fun bits like Patton leading the Red Army. Highly recommended.

Not exactly new, but I might as well recommend a couple of fics which have been on my list for a while, and which I don't think I got from here.
First, The Sharp Edge of Dreams and its sequel Child of Fire. They're Labyrinth fics, and the first one looks fairly generic as such fics go, if in the better end of the quality range; fantasy romp, sidhe nobility, quasi-magical attraction, awakening magical power, various other less notable elements - nothing to really make it stand out. In the sequel, however, things fairly quickly start to become quite interesting.
Unfortunately updates are very slow indeed; IIRC there was something like a year and a half between the two most recent chapters, if not more, and it's been another two years plus since the last update. Still, there's quite a bit already written, and hope springs eternal.
Second, The Golden Power, the single best Legend of Zelda fanfic I've ever run across. It's written as a continuation of "Twilight Princess", but it eventually ties in at least nearly every single previous Link/Zelda/Ganon/Triforce game in the series, and quite possibly most of the ones not yet written as well - and the original (or, at least, non-fanfic) elements are good enough that I don't want to try to describe them.
Unfortunately, again, updates are slow, although not on the scale of "Child of Fire"; it's something more like one chapter every three to six months, if memory serves, and we're due for another anytime in the next three months if that schedule holds.
- Bob Schroeck - 03-16-2010
A new fic, only three chapters so far, but it looks to have potential. The existing material is well-written, at least. Potternator. To quote the author's own summary:
Quote:Skynet sent an avatar of itself back to change history. Its mission - terminate the "Savior of the Wizarding World" before he can threaten Skynet. Too bad it didn't know that when dealing with Harry Potter that nothing goes as it should.
