Fanfic Recommendation


Hiya, I read quite a few fanfics, but I'd like to recommend this one to you all, while it's still fairly new (Chapter 3).  I dunno about you lot, but I find it less intimidating than being offered something that is already 40 chapters or more.

Title: As the Crow Flies
Author: Nightsfury
Rating: T

I don't have a decent author's summary to offer you, as I can't find one.  The fic is about Zevran's training from the age of about fifteen (a subject of interest to lots of us, I suspect) and so far it's looking like mightily good stuff.

Link to it on FF is here: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6550932/1/As_the_Crow_Flies

Yes! I agree, it's very engaging. Bittersweet, at times too.

Oh! I likee! I really like getting in on a series early on. So much easier to stay on top of it that way. I liked the notion of Zevran having a master that wasn't just intent on crushing his spirit.

I found another one I like a lot. It is a Loghain story, very AU. So far it doesn't much resemble the game although all the characters are in it. I think Elissa and Anora are about the same age. Fergus is the younger Cousland.

The Arrangement by Addai

Another one... Rend Asunder it's just coincidence I think that it's a Loghain story. I can't recall how I found it... It's filled with UST (Unresolved sexual tension) that just goes on forever and is quite lovely! I am really enjoying it. However, the last few chapters have turned into an Awakening retelling. I'm not super fond of re-tellings usually unless the the game plot is just a rough framework for other stuff. I'm hoping she can tweak it away from game-plot and restore the uniqueness.
