Two fairly recent longer podfics

Nov 26, 2010 14:00

Today I'll rec a couple of longer podfics which have been posted during this year.

Title: Some Strange Prophecy
Reader: ann_ciudad
Author: cesperanza
Pairing: Fraser/Kowalski
Rating: NC-17
Length: 5 h 4 min 46 s
Why I'm reccing this podfic: The story is a fandom classic, so I won't talk much about it (short version: it is awesome). But the reading! I have to say, this is on my list of top five podfics ever (or would be if I were to make such a list). At first listen, it's a low-key reading and not expressive in a flashy way, but it pulls you right into the story, and the emotion is there under the surface and grips you when you least expect it. It's also a great take on Ray Kowalski POV, and the dialogue is especially good, too. I suppose my one complaint is that the volume is a little low.

Title: Birds of a Feather
Reader: mific
Author: julia_here
Pairing: Benton Fraser and Rodney McKay gen (it's a crossover between due South and SGA)
Rating: PG
Length: 1 h 25 min 5 s
Why I'm reccing this podfic: This story has lots of Fraser family backstory, and I love it to bits (I don't know anything about SGA, but I didn't really need to in order to appreciate the story). I really like mific's reading--I don't know where her accent is from, but I love it. There are also bits of bird calls used to separate the sections of the story, which is quite atmospheric and works well with the structure of the story.
