Title:
Live & On Stage by
allamboy (
MP3 or
M4B, read by

Type: Slash (Jared/Jensen)
Length: 15K-25K
Summary: It’s Summer Tour 2009 for Jared Padalecki and the rest of the Mickey Mouse Club. They’re opening for Disney boy band sensation 5X Everything, and when Jared gets to know "shy one" Jensen Ackles it just might be love.
Reason for the Rec: I know, I know, it's a ridiculous premise and I made the funniest of faces when I first started listening to the podfic. However it's the premise that makes this such a fun fic. I mean, come on, boy band. Mickey Mouse Club. Chad. Also I love the scene where Jared is embarrassed as Jensen listens to his iPod and tries to justify the music for professional reasons and Jensen just gives him a funny look and say "I'm in a boy band."

Merlin
Title:
Defenders Of the Realm by
lamardeuse (
MP3,
M4B or
M4A read by
fayjay)
Type: Slash (Merlin/Arthur), Het (Uther/Morgana)
Length: 50K-75K, 5-6 hours
Summary: Modern AU. Arthur and Morgana are Metropolitan police officers drawn into a strange case involving robbery of ancient artifacts. Merlin is a graduate student at Imperial College studying the healing plants of Ancient Britain under Gaius - or at least that's what he tells everyone. Soon they, along with Gwen, Lancelot and Uther, will be facing a battle for the future of the country. Can they defend the realm from those who would seek to destroy it?
Reason for the Rec: This fic made me realize how much I adore modern day fics where they are still magic. I had read others with this theme, however this one solidified that preference. A really great read or listen.

Title:
The Holes In The Ground by
mercurial_wit Type: Gen
Length: 5K-10K
Summary: "A sonic screwdriver? That's about as scientific as -- as Star Trek." (SGA/DW crossover)
Reason for the Rec: I just love how Rodney and the Doctor interact in this fic. You know that Rodney would be interested in the Doctor but he's so high strung that he'd have troubles dealing with him at first. Meanwhile the Doctor would enjoy winding Rodney up.
