Specter by Sharon Cross (NC-17)
Fandom: HIGHLANDER: THE SERIES
Pairing: Duncan/Methos
Author on LJ: None
Author Website: CrossWords
Why this must be read:
Because no one else could or has written a hard SF AU in the Highlander universe and got away with it so spectacularly!
This story features Duncan and Methos in a future so different and yet so real you will be amazed. Sharon manages somehow to keep all the basic tenets of the Highlander universe and twist them so as they look completely new.
Yet, with all this novelty her Duncan and her Methos remain recognizable and in character while we get novel takes on Amanda and Joe which are equally as perfect and fantastically imaginative.
If you like SF and you like Highlander you will seriously adore this series. The sheer breadth and scope of Sharon's creativity has me open mouthed with awe. She is at present writing the follow up to this story and I am on the edge of my seat waiting for each new installment.
Read this fic and really see why fanfic can be so much more then the TV series which inspired it.
I only wish the owners of Highlander would get Sharon to write the new mini series!
