Review: The Wraeththu series is a series of books that takes place in an alternate future where Humanity has evolved into another species known as Wraeththu. Wraeththu are a species of hermaphrodite like beings. Human's can become a member of this new species by a ritual known as Inception, such inceptions are rare though because most Wraeththu despise humans and either avoid contact with humans or kill humans they come into contact with.
This story takes place before any of the books and is a good introduction to the ideas and beliefs of the humans turned Wraeththu as they deal with the changes in their lives and the world around them. It's a dark story that describes the beginnings of a genocide that would eventually wipe out the human race, but it is beautifully poignant in the way it contrasts Seel and Cal's human memories with their Wraeththu existence.

Title: The Black Knight
Fandom: Discworld
Pairing: Vetinari/OFC
Categories: amnesia, AU (sort of), humor, fluff
Length: Long [~17,000 words]
Warnings: n/a
Author on LJ: n/a
Website: Their Fanfiction.net page
Summary: It was supposed to be a simple chess game. But wizards are such sore losers. Vetinari is sent to an alternate universe (perhaps) by an irate Ridcully after he wins once too often at the traditional Ponce Featherhew chess game; while he's there he slowly starts to remember living there all along, and the wizards must race to get the Patrician back before he stops remembering Anhk-Morpork.
Review: Hurray for literary fandoms week! Although this one's 7 years old, this fic is still a good Discworld story, slight characterization evolution issues notwithstanding. I like the OFC that Vetinari meets in the alterworld - she's not so wonderful that she's a Mary Sue, but she is intelligent and stubborn, and a good match for a Vetinari who thinks he is a knight but who is otherwise as on the ball as usual. I only wish that they had more time together.
The fic comes complete with footnotes and dry humor, of course. Mercator gets the Pratchett style right, more or less, and that really makes the fic shine. I'd recommend it to anyone familiar with Discworld who has a little time, and who likes to read about the wizards bickering and Vetinari being himself even when amnesiac.

Summary: After his release from the Spanish prison, Archie must find his footing again.
Review: A little bonus fic for literary week! The Horatio Hornblower fandom is necessarily based in part on the excellent miniseries, but the first episodes cleave well to the C.S. Forester books, and this fic takes place during that period.
Archie is, understandably, upset and off-balance by his experience at Don Masserado's. I love how this fic lets Horatio help his friend back from his depression, and I adore Archie's character-appropriate confession of affection (which incorporates his past as a stage actor). The underlying metaphor of the sea-legs was well-used, and made an excellent frame for the story as well as a good method of characterization for Horatio and Archie both.

Summary: After his release from the Spanish prison, Archie must find his footing again.
Review: A little bonus fic for literary week! The Horatio Hornblower fandom is necessarily based in part on the excellent miniseries, but the first episodes cleave well to the C.S. Forester books, and this fic takes place during that period.
Archie is, understandably, upset and off-balance by his experience at Don Masserado's. I love how this fic lets Horatio help his friend back from his depression, and I adore Archie's character-appropriate confession of affection (which incorporates his past as a stage actor). The underlying metaphor of the sea-legs was well-used, and made an excellent frame for the story as well as a good method of characterization for Horatio and Archie both.
