Crossovers
Band of Brothers/The Book Thief
The Easy Men by buffyaddict13
Amazing crossover between "Band of Brothers" and "The Book Thief" - I'm not familiar with the former except in passing, but I don't think you need to be. Takes the narrator from the latter and uses the book's style perfectly to tell a heartbreaking story that rings with truth.

Battlestar Galactica/The Handmaid's Tale
Blessed Be The Fruit by daybreak777
A BSG AU set in the world of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale. Fantastic - it takes the show's gender and reproductive issues and follows them to their logical - and horrifying - conclusions. Brilliantly done. I love that it's Caprica, and that Sonja and Boomer and Athena are involved, and that Ellen and Saul are still together and still as impotent to effect change as they ever were.

House/Supernatural
My Brother's Keeper by ducks_in_a_row
Amusing, in-character House/SPN crossover. Sam's in a zombie-induced coma, Dean knows why and how to fix it, but House and Cuddy won't let him remove Sam from the hospital. Hijinks and banter ensue.

Iron Man/Spider-Man
Tabloid by basingstoke
"What sort of facilities do you have at home, Spider-Man?" Dr. Richards asked. "Do you make your own costumes?" / "Uh, yeah. I have a sewing machine from--" from his aunt's garage, an old Singer with three stitches. "Yeah, I make my own gear." He used plain old swimsuit material from the store, fused on a dumpster-dived ironing board with rubber webbing for strength. Took him about six hours per piece, which was why it was such a BITCH when some jerk shredded one. / "That isn't mechanized?" Dr. Richards looked surprised. "But your security system--what kind of server do you have?" / "Uh..." Peter looked at the robots, stamping out tracer after tracer. Utterly adorable sequel to "Paparazzo" (previously recced). *hearts Peter Parker*
