not under the vault of another sky by Lilith Morgana (PG)

Why this must be read: Set in the Rise of the Cybermen / Age of Steel universe, this is a just gorgeous alternate look at some familiar characters. They're so much the same, yet they subtly reflect the hard, different world of that universe, and the resulting story is dark and complicated. Sarah is very well written, but in particular Harriet is wonderfully done; it's so easy to make her a caricature, but this story does her a great justice, and makes her real, even if she only actually appears in it a little. In beautiful writing and imagery, this is at its heart a story of love and loss, as simple an idea as in any story, but wonderfully executed.
