Following the lead of my colleague who reviewed the New Who Novels category, I decided to read the first three parts of each WIP and then give my opinions. Anyone who has read more of any of the stories should feel free to comment on them, of course.

IMO, this category is pretty weak, what with all of the poor punctuation, mid-series stories, Gwen bashing, unengaging plots, and questionable characterization. I'm trying to decide whether to vote for a flawed story that had some strengths and held my attention, a technically proficient story that didn't "connect" with me, or possibly nothing.

It's also possible this just didn't click with me at all because I'm reading a romance novel called Flowers From the Storm with exactly this plot, with added Quakers (heroine comes to work at an asylum, is horrified at the conditions the hero is being kept in and effects a rescue...)

About the "son of a bitch" thing: The author lives in Australia, so maybe it's a fairly common phrase there. Though I agree, Ianto saying it, and to any extent, is harder to buy.
