I have been attempting to keep track of all the 2012 Yuletide recs I come across in my feed; earlier this week, I downloaded a bunch of them and have been reading them on the bus and, last night, while I was on the elliptical.
Favorites so far:
Though I Sang in My Chains Like the Sea by lightgetsin, set in the Ben Aaronovitch Rivers of London universe, from Nightingale's pov.
Into the Woods by diadelphous, a pre-Aliens Vasquez pov.
Mother Tongue by elle_dritch, a post-Tehanu story from Apple's (Tenar's adult daughter) pov.
