Fandom: THE SENTINEL

Pairing: Jim/Blair (slash, non-explicit)

Author Website: http://www.squidge.org/~halfaft/index.htm

Why this must be read:

The Treeline Trilogy
Treeline

Moraine

Montane

In Treeline and its sequels, GreenWoman explores the consequences of Blair's denouncement of himself and his dissertation, his subsequent loss of credibility, and the repercussions of the enemies that Blair and Jim have made along the way with gritty, eerie, precision. These stories are dark, and haunting, and yet there is enough fragile hope in the resolution of this story arc to give you something to cling to.

On her website, GreenWoman hosts other's sequels to her Treeline, the story that started it all. I think you'll see why this story inspired such a plethora of fic, and why it still resonates with every read, no matter how many times you've devoured it.

This one isn't for the faint of heart, but it is a "must read".

Oh wow, thanks for rec'ing her. I hadn't even heard of GreenWoman, and it's always so much fun to find an awesome, new (to me) author. :)

Okay, I take it all back! That was wrenching. Oh my god. However, that really was some gorgeous, gorgeous writing.

Aww! *hands Tim a tissue and cuddles him close, with Garrett on the other side*

I'm sorry, hon -- yep, "wrenching" is the one word that describes that series. But! It ends happily. Sort of. *sniffles*

I'm glad you enjoyed the rec'ed fic, or at least appreciated the gorgeous writing -- GreenWoman really is wonderful.
