Review:
The story opens with a diary entry. A really crushing diary entry that details just what life has been like for Blair Sandburg after the series finale. An ulcer is referred to several times. Not to mention a *lot* of anger. And, because this is Blair, we go from the diary entry to the day of Blair's graduation (if, you know, he were actually being allowed to graduate). Is it any surprise that a madman with a bomb is involved?
As you all know, Alyjude is one of my Sentinel fandom guilty pleasure authors. This story, however, is not a guilty pleasure. It's just plain good, especially with the characterization of kick!ass!Blair, who not only doesn't need saving, but he damn well will save everyone else while he's at it. Toss in a fantastic journal entry, Jim being, uh, Jim, and Simon being completely awesome and you have a great story all around.
A Good Read (pt. 1) (pt. 2)

This story, though, is one of the absolute best 'kick ass' Blair stories in the fandom, thorougly delightful. Good for you for reccing it!

Aaaand, well, I don't have a television (I *know* -- no TV, no internet at home -- it's amazing I can survive:), but I hold out hope that the entire series will be released on DVD some day.
Thanks!
