The Deltabury Tales by D'Alaire (PG-13)
Fandom: STAR TREK VOYAGER
Pairing: gen, minor Paris/Torres
Length: 3,000 words
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: D'A Green Room
Why this must be read: Chaucer is rolling over in his grave with this fic, which rewrites Voyager a la the Canterbury Tales in the same writing style and old English tone. I found this fic to be very unique and well-written, and it warmed the cockles of my English major heart. If we had been reading this in class, I would have certainly paid more attention lol. D'Alaire certainly put a lot of effort into this: she's got the rhyme scheme and phrasing down perfectly, and I think she even has the meter down as well. Wow. Worth taking a peak at just to admire the work behind this.
