what can i say about sharon that won't sound like utter fangirl babbling? her stories were some of the first i read getting into this fandom and never do i regret it. she comes up with the best storylines, and the greatest takes on family for both blair and jim. some of her earlier fiction was written before an exact canonical history had been established for the characters. i *heart* her original characters more than i have any others in fiction. they seem real, they all have motivation. she writes a lovely stream of conciousness and you can't help but be sucked into the peril and plots that she cretes. if you want something engaging and have a strong stomach, i highly recommened *all* her work.

so, having never watched forever knight, i had no clue what was going on. still don't. but, hey, it's blair angsting as a vampire so i decided i could roll with it. the first story is very straightforward, almost formulatic, the second one is more a drama in my opinion. the emotional ride is just gutwrenching, very much in the style of just when you think it can't get any worse. both stories are heavy on mythological/fantasy themes. xmagicalx likes to explore the whole guide/sentinel destiny mythology mixing it with vampiric lore, and she does it so well.
