"Pirate Vindaloo" by elessiland Hipperdiva

First (stopped) reading: 26.11.2008 at chapter 10 of 26.

Comment:PV has so many inconsistencies on so many levels that one's left looking around, wondering where to start criticizing: the characterization that changes to serve the plot? The characterization that's OCC to get fluffy (I stopped reading then, I thought that 73 ( Read more... )

“Seréis en la tierra (Vagabundos y Errantes)” de Irati & Targaryen

Primera lectura: 03-09-2008.

Comentario: 78.000 palabras. Lo que pasa cuando se va publicando sin haber terminado es que el resultado final, por muy bueno que sea, queda desprolijo y desparejo. Eso es un poco lo que pasa con SELT, cuando es bueno es buenísimo pero a vecés se manda unas… y eso ( Read more... )

"Balcony Sessions" by Leah

First read: 31-08-2008

Notes:51w novel, got bored. This fic is a all over the place, a bit like Sheppard himself. But well, between that and he constantly refering to Rodney in his mind as "The Canuck" it just got a bit too much to bear, boredom and racism? I don't know what are the connotations of the term, sure, but I ( Read more... )

The Taste of Apples & Sacrificial Drift by Auburn

First read: 17-08-2008

Notes: 64.000 words. This are supposed to be two separate fics but since they prequel+sequel it matters not to me. In the first the team (including Ford) becomes contaminated with a sort of alien fungus and by the time they notice it's already invaded their nervous systems, so ( Read more... )

First read: 2004.

Second read: 31-03-2008.

Notes: 96.000 words. I remembered liking this fic so much that I could never figure out why I hadn't read the sequel, "Adamant and Starlight", now I finally know. It's not that the fic overall is not to my liking, I love bond-fics and this one was lovely in that sense ( Read more... )

"Shattered" by Nym.

First read: 27-03-2008.

Notes: 80.000 words. This appears to be a post-OoTP fic in which Sirius death never happened. During the final battle Snape saves Harry's life, but with a very particular spell that has long term consequences for both of them. One of them is that Harry needs to be close to Snape and so Sirius installs them ( Read more... )
