Why this must be read: The Sentinel Special Movie Project is kind of like a virtual season that began in May 2005 and the most recent episode is Dec. 2005. It picks up at the end of the television series with Blair heading off to get his training to become a detective, but still concerned that he isn't doing the right thing. Jim and Blair have to deal with separation, developing feelings, suspicious/judgmental police, and the usual miscommunications because they're both trying so hard not to disappoint each other. This story is a good introduction to the series (written by various authors). They should be read in order because there are continuing characters and themes, but seriously ... not a hardship to read them all, although I found them more satisfying when read over a period of time rather than all at once. Hence the one-a-month format works well.
ETA: A second season is in the works.
"Blair was never stupid," Megan replied tartly. "He made a mistake or two. Haven't you gotten over it yet? As I recall where Alex Barnes was concerned, you made a few of your own."
"We both made mistakes and we've both paid for it, but you're right, Sandburg's losses far outweigh my own. That's why -"
"If you say that's why you're getting him the badge, I'll never forgive you."
Jim glared at her. "That's why I need him with me, because I never want to betray his trust again and because he's the only partner I want."
Megan's eyes softened at Jim's confession. "You care for him very much, don't you?"
"He's my best friend."
Megan reached out and touched his arm. "That's all?"
"Conversation's over, Connor. Just stay out of my way and we'll get on just fine."

Thank you. As one of the betas for the group, it's gratifying to see such an enthusiastic recommendation.
I would like to clear up one thing, though. The first season included eight stories, concluding with Alyjude's "Full of Good Cheer" on December 1st.
Discussions of whether or not to attempt a second season are still ongoing.

I'll correct the entry to indicate this. I do hope you decide to do a second season and please pass along my compliments to all involved.
Re: sentinel special movie project
And I announced that there would be a second season a few weeks ago when I disbanded the season one group. I don't have a start date yet as I'm getting together the writing and artwork team now and organizing the finer details but will announce as soon as I can.
Thanks again for reccing us
Lyn
