My Soul to Keep by Ysone

Hello, bluewolf458 driving the Sentinel van again. Hope everyone enjoys my recs this month!


Fandom: THE SENTINEL
Pairing: gen
Length: 62265 words
Author on LJ: not known

Why this must be read: - In a world where sentinels are known but there are no guides, one is found in cryogenic sleep. What lucky sentinel will he be assigned to help? Two possible candidates have been chosen, and neither wants to be the loser.

Ysone tells a good and interesting story here. Much of it involves the problems of someone being revived from a cryogenic sleep that has lasted for a century, and much of it the problems of sentinels who are forced to rely on suppressant drugs to keep them functioning. There's not too much detail given about the new, future world, but what there is is convincing. I'd like to see more stories set in this universe.

I like this one a lot, not least of which because it's guides who are the precious resource. Welcome back.
