Resurrection Series by Dolimir (NC-17)

[gardendoor.livejournal.com]

So, last time I recced Sentinel, I tried to keep to things I thought no one had ever heard of. This time, I'm going in the opposite direction: stories I've read a million times and can't for the life of me figure out why they haven't been recced here before.

Fandom: SENTINEL
Pairing: Jim/Blair
Author on LJ: dolimir_k
Why this must be read:

Years after Blair disappears, Jim is being stalked by a brutal, damaged man named Mallory ... who bears more than a passing resemblance to Blair. The series is intriguing for the little hints dropped about what happened to Blair in the missing years, but more than that, it's heartwrenching to watch Mallory try and fit back into the holes left by Blair's absence despite his capacity for gentleness and friendship being completely expunged. Marcus Mallory isn't Blair, and it takes everyone around him a hell of a long time to admit to that and take him on his own terms.

Thank you for the nice rec. *g*

Welcome! Frankly, I love all your fic, but this series is one that really stands out for me. Would you like me to link to your LJ while I'm at it?

You are a wonderful writer. I am newbie to Sentinel fandom but the woman that lured me here did it by dangling the likes of "Moonhunt" and "FDJB" in front of me and promising me that the writing here was second to none. She is correct and I am wallowing innit! Thank you so much and I am so happy to know you are here in lj, too!

You can, but I don't really write Sentinel anymore. I wouldn't want to mislead anyone.

I'm glad you're enjoying the fics! Thank you for letting me know.

What an incredible series of stories! Powerful, and devastating in their subtlety. I've been reading Sentinel fic since the series was first on the air, and I hadn't come across this one. That you for rec'ing it!

Wonderful and subtle story,very believable and heartbreaking plot. I love the voices.
I also like your take on the characters, especially Naomi who's so often, IMO, mistreated by authors.
Really a great series.

I'm so glad you liked! And I'm with you on Naomi; I think a lot of things people slam her for aren't different from most parents who mean well with grown children.

Oh, I'm so pleased! I was worried everyone ahd read this one a million times, the way I have.
