fic: I Call This Woman

Author's note: For non-Fever readers, this scene refers to a moment in Dreamfever when, after Mac has been captured and raped repeatedly by Unseelie (dark) Fae princes to the point where she is so severely addicted to sex with Fae that it is all she can think of, Barrons retrieves her and begins to "cure" her back to some semblance of humanity.

Oh yeash the friend of the pretty boy that works at Trinity College that Mac meets, I read that he was a character/from a clan in her Highlander series. I read that luckily before I got up to him telling Mac his name. I'll get around to reading them sometime, after I finish the Fever Series and Mists of Avalon, which I'm rereading b/c when I first read it I was tweleve and could neither understand or enjoy smut like I do today.

Had a great story idea Fever Series/Sandman (Neil Gaiman) crossover because I was thinking Barrons been looking for the book for awhile before Mac even showed up and well in Sandman there's a very different version of the "fairy myth" instead of seelie and unseelie it's more of a Midsummer's night dream vibe going on and I was like well faery is a big place that has a lot of factions and even though the two ideas don't go together they techinically could b/c it's faery land and in faery land shit happens. So anyway my point being Barrons goes on quest to other version of faery to see if they know anything about the book, but of course I migth want to finish the series before I start anything like that.

I'm not sure if you've read Gaiman's Sandman stuff but it's great, a jumble of myths and mysteries and everything from greek to egyptian to russian to asian religion and folk stuff, pile in a moody, prone to brooding tragic non-hero and a dozen other variations of weird and strange and voila.

Gosh, what's his name... Christian! Yeah he's the son of... either Drustan or Dageus, I don't quite remember, in that series. Great stuff. The first two books aren't really MacKeltar/druid-y, but the rest are and they're brilliant.

Hmm, I did read Gaiman's Anansi Boys and I have to say, I enjoyed but wasn't completely wowed by it *shrug* Oh well, preferences... But that fic idea sounds very neat. A sort of worldwide fairy tale?

Too be completely honest about Neil Gaiman I have to say that his novels are the type that won't nearly strike someone as much as say his short stories which are fantastic. His novels are the type that if you put down and pick up a month later you have to reread everything again.
