As some of you probably know, I'm a big fan of the Whateley Academy stories, a shared universe that's probably had as much written for it as the Undocumented Features setting.
However of late I've been reading some of the other shared universes that the writers have (some of which make passing appearances in Whateley as in-universe fiction) and some of them have my recommendation. Note, some of these are NSFW.
Care Givers
In the early 22nd century the 25 billion people on Earth are completely dependent on Spacers for mineral resources. In a bid to keep spacers from independence, the UN passes the Protection of Women Act and woman's rights become the flashpoint of war between spacers and grounders.
Erinyes
In a cyberpunk setting, the world is rife with super-soldier processes and Themis Corp has two: their cyborg Myrmidon soldiers and the biotech process that creates the Erinyes, their elite body of amazonian soldiers.
Heaven and Hell
Based quite heavily on In Nomine, Heaven and Hell are in a state of guarded Truce, jockeying for position before the inevitable resumption of The War. Unsurprisingly this involves a lot of recruiting, not to mention clearing out the various independents that have been hiding in the shadows.
Jordan Winters
Okay, not actually a shared 'verse, but a series of short stories by Bek D Corbin, one of the best Whateley authors. Dan Winters, a teenager in a magical community that co-exists with a small American town, has received the Fool's Cap, identifying him as the butt monkey of his school. His out is to invent an alternate identity for himself that won't suffer the same penalty... a ficitious female cousin named Jordan.
D for Drakensis
You're only young once, but immaturity is forever.
