Favorite FanFiction

Over the last years I've read plenty of Star Wars and especially Rogue Squadron fanfiction on the net, and I've enjoyed it a lot. Many of the stories are great, and I'm glad that there is a opportunity to read about my favorite characters even when there is no new official material.

When I noticed that I began to forget where I'd found a good story, I started to compile a list of my favorite stories. It is in no particular order, I just wrote them down as I remembered them, and it is still uncomplete. And still growing, of course, as new great fanfics are written.

some explanations

I only give a rating if the author himself/herself does so. Whenever possible, I use the summaries the authors have written. If the summary is by me, I'll indicate it by brackets [ ].

I hope none of the authours minds that I mention their stories and link to them. If you don't want me to list your story, please let me know. I really don't mean to step on someone's toes.

Title: Much Abides (to go to the WAAS main page, please click here)

Author: Antigone

Timeperiod: SW universe: starts after "Solo Command"; earth: 1783 till present day

Main characters: Wedge, Tycho, Hobbie, Wes

Rating: NC-17 (the story contains a lot of violence, sex, disturbing images, so be warned)

Type: non-canon, earth, crossover (between SW and the RPG Vampire: the Masquerade)

Spoilers: none

Summary: The Rogues crash land on Earth, 1783, during a Kindred-style clan war. Each is 'adopted' into a different clan; in the 21st century they must reconnect to defeat the architect of their damnation.

Length: 23 parts

Remark: This is one of the very few non-canon stories I really enjoy a lot. The crossover seems to be strange, but it is done very well. RS fans already know what the characters are like as mortals, so not much introduction is needed. As vampires, they are very different, and that appeals to me. It makes the story less predictable and more thrilling. And disturbing, too.
