The Sacrificial Mage by Leah (taste_is_sweet) (R)

Last rec: I've enjoyed my turn at the wheel. I selected stories with unusual pairings this month, but for the last few I returned to my John/Rodney roots and picked some favorites with that slash pairing. Here's the final one.

Fandom: STARGATE
Pairing: Rodney McKay/John Sheppard; Teyla/Kanaan; background Elizabeth Weir/Radek Zelenka
Length: About 65,000 words
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] taste_is_sweet
Author Website: LJ tag - fanfiction
Why this must be read:
Written in 2009 for Stargate Atlantis Secret Santa, this is a magical fairytale AU. I don't usually go for such divergent AUs in this fandom, but I like the author's writing so I gave it a try and found it very enjoyable. Many SGA fans will have read this story, but since it wasn't rec'd on [livejournal.com profile] crack_van, I thought I'd share in case there are newcomers who haven't, or folks not in the Stargate fandom who like the fantasy genre with m/m elements. Plus, it's been a while, and maybe some of you might enjoy a re-read. :)

The main focus is the John/Rodney story; the other pairings are established relationships.
