Why this must be read:

Because it's such as intriguing question, what would have happened in a galaxy far far away if Bail had chosen Luke instead of Leia? The author's characterization of Leia in this alternate universe is just perfect with the canon personality we know and love from the movies but also with an added edge that comes from being raised on Tatooine. This piece is wonderful look at this particular what if and is a must read for any and all Leia fans.

"I'm Leia Skywalker. I'm here to rescue you."

Intriguing! I love a well-premised AU.

I love this, thanks so much for rec'ing it!! :D

If you love Leia stories, In A Faint, Uncertain Voice (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1823369/1/In_a_Faint_Uncertain_Voice) by Meredith Bronwen Mallory is really excellent! And the last line hits you like a punch in the stomach. Very fine writing, IMO.


(Actually, I love all of her SW stuff, but she has an unfortunate tendency to abandon stories halfway through... *sigh*).

PS. It's AU, as it was written before the third movie was released. But it's really awesome, IMO.
