At the moment, I'm in love with Fallen: Title: Fallen Author: Confusedknight Rating: T Summary: After being kicked out of Page training, something happens to Kel that will change her life forever. On the run, alone and friendless she disappears and is presumed dead. Four years later she turns up in Corus, a mysterious warrior with an unknown past... Link: www.fanfiction.net/s/3271761/1/FallenIt's an amazing story, and wonderfully long. There is so much more to it than you would expect, and although it seems as if it should be several books, (and it's not yet done), something seems to work out. I must say though, that this isn't short fic. It's at 50 odd chapters and counting! I LOVED 'Running Cured Every Problem Kel Had'! I am enchanted by the idea of Kel/Evin, it would be great to see that more in depth, and developed into something bigger... What is the age difference between the two of them?

It's got good plots, and even better, the author can actually write! Characterisation is also amazing! And in chapter one, “What’s with your creepy obsession with Kel and Garvey?” - I love it!! I really need to find a Kel/Garvey fic now, with a bit of Neal too! EDIT: Oh no! There are only 2 chapters so far! How will I survive? And Esmond is quite adorable!

I must say, I've been reading Fallen, which shangleopard recommended up the list a bit more. And it's absolutely fabulous! I'm totally drawn into the story, her plot is rather mind boggling! While her spelling and grammar is needing to have a bit of improvement, it really doesn't detract what the story is. It really could be expanded upon so much more and made into an alternate ending to Kel's story. It all just flows! And now I'm waffling.. But if you like the long fics, with an actual plot, definitely give this one a go!

Title: Anything Can HappenAuthor: Instead of Reality Summary: Miache hears another retelling her story. Because: I came across it looking for Giantkiller recs, and even though it's too short for the fanzine, it's cute and unusual - I don't think I've ever seen Miache in fic before!

Title: The Knight and the Queen Author: Emmegan Rating: K+ Summary: A ThayetWyldon fic. Not a pairing I'd usually write or read, but I was devoured by a plotbunny! Oneshot, minimal action. Based off Wyldon's saving the lives of the royal children during the Immortals War, prior to First Test. Because: Well, I'd never seen another W/T fic until Mandi pointed me to this one, and while it's not the best fic ever, there's a heck of a lot of awesome in it. On: FF.N Link: here
