"The Revenant Series" by Anna Orr (NC-17)

Why this must be read: I've decided to finish off my BSG78 recs with an old, well-read and much-loved favourite...



The other stories I've chosen to recommend by Anna were picked with an eye to representing the fandom, and showcasing her diversity as a writer. However, one of my all-time favourite stories of Anna's is "The Revenant Series."

The premise of this series is fantastic (and I mean that in both senses of the word): imagine if someone you loved more than life returned from the dead. This is Anna's jumping off point in this long, plotty, angsty (very, very angsty), dark, Alternate Universe epic. I can't express to you how entertaining and satisfying I found this story, so I won't even try.

"The Revenant Series" is made up of an introductory short story and a pair of novels, so make sure you have a whole weekend ahead of you before you start to read this one.



While I wouldn't call this a death fic, it might be considered so by some people; it's also an AU.
