Summary: Ianto is much more than just a teaboy.

Why you should read it: This is the grandest of grand epics and you'd better be settled in for the weekend before you start. Begun in 2007, the story itself ranges well before the series begins and continues on past the known canon and into the future. Shades of Ianto is one of the grandest examples of secret!Ianto in the Torchwood fanon and still one of the best. There a host of well drawn, fascinating original characters in the story, all with secrets of their own but the epic turns on Ianto - his secrets, his life and his choices. Sarcasticchick builds an entire world for us with a sweeping, generational story full of passion, love, adventure and - as is always true with Torchwood - grief mixed with unexpected joy. Though it is quite long, longer than many novels, it isn't stuffed with filler and the author maintains their hold on plot and story, carrying us all along for an amazing ride. This story is part of Torchwood's fanon, one of the notable stories that everyone should read.
