Search and Rescue by _seven_crows (PG)

Fandom: STAR TREK: REBOOT
Pairing: None
Length: 4,000
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] _seven_crows
Author Website: _seven_crows’ ST fic index
Why this must be read:

Author’s summary: "You think they've been keeping Jim for twelve hours by asking politely?"

Come for the premise, stay for the execution: Spock and McCoy go on a mission to rescue Jim from capture on an alien planet, and [livejournal.com profile] _seven_crows takes a well-used plot and makes it her own. The spot-on Spock/McCoy banter is a treat, as are the action scenes, which hold my attention like not many action scenes do. I particularly like how [livejournal.com profile] _seven_crows writes Spock, who gets to show off both his command and fighting skills here. This is one of those fics that I can read over and over again without ever getting bored.
