Wonderland by Nancy Brown (PG-15)

*looks at the time*

Whoa, here we are at the end of my stint at the wheel for Torchwood, already. The month went by in a flash, didn't it? I swear, it's like someone has been fiddling about with the space-time continuum again. Just as well we're all used to that sensation!

I hope you've all had fun, because I sure have. It's been a delight to share some of my favourites with you -- and thank you to all those who left comments. It makes me happy to know I've spread fannish joy. :)

I'm just going to duck out the back now, rather like Superman into a phone box, and change reccing capes, as I'll be back again shortly, with some Songvid Oddities for your delectation during small fandom December. But in the meantime, I'm leaving you with one of my favourite post-Children-of-Earth stories. I'm sure it will come as no surprise to you by now if I reveal that it's somewhat timey-wimey. Ah, the sweet smell of a paradox unravelling!


Fandom: TORCHWOOD
Pairing: Jack/Ianto, Ianto/Lisa, various others
Length: novella
Author on LJ: nancybrown
Author Website: Torchwood tag
Why this must be read: One of the things I love most about this story is that it takes the hard lessons of Children of Earth, and turns them into something unexpected, life-affirming and completely convincing. This is about Jack, making one more sacrifice, and what comes to pass as a result. And it is, indeed, a wonderland. *happy sigh*

Wonderland: one, two, three, four, five

Thank you so much for the month's worth of good reading (and viewing). Most of these were stories I hand't seen before, and they were all great! I'm not sure how you find these good stories, but I hope you will continue to do so, and I'm looking forward to your next stint as driver. Thanks again!
