How Sleep the Dead by KodiakkeMax (PG-13)
Fandom: FARSCAPE
Pairing: None, really
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: The Max Factor
Why this must be read: This is one of my all-time favourite stories in any fandom. It's one of those rare fics that dare to step out well beyond the usual boundaries of a fandom, and it sure as hell doesn't pull any punches. The original characters are well-developed and completely believable; after the first time I read it, I felt like I'd known them for years. And the future that Max creates is beautifully crafted, throwing together current Earth culture with Farscape's canon, and bringing about a universe that's both exotic and familiar.
I don't want to say too much more, because I don't want to ruin it for anyone. Gorgeous, heart-wrenching, and real. I can see this happening so easily. (And, considering the events of late season four, it's even easier than it was when I first read this.) It'll make you question your perceptions of Moya's crew, and even that of our own history.
