Balance The Force by Lilith Sedai (NC-17)

Fandom: STAR WARS
Pairing: Obi-Wan/Qui-Gon
Length: Novel
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] cara_chapel
Author Website: L index, go 5/8 down the page
Why this must be read:

Recc'd often by this comm, Lilith Sedai writes stories set seamlessly into the GFFA, only with sex. Masterfully plotted, Balance The Force is what I'd call 'high concept' (yet bountiful with 'low concept' character development and many subtleties), and I'll let the author summarize: Obi-Wan, more attuned to the Unifying Force than his master, believes his nightmares may be a warning about the future. Qui-Gon, preoccupied by the Living Force, disregards the warning. Lengthy and convoluted mayhem ensues. Really, this is not to be missed. Told in series, as follows:

Galactic Gladiators
Rogue Jedi
Dark Apprentice
Uneasy Allies
Grandmaster

great rec!

Thanks for the rec! :D High concept? Now I'm wondering which of them you meant: "What if Obi-Wan got kidnapped by a reality show" or "What if Qui-Gon turned to the Dark Side?" Or was there another one? ;-)

Seriously, I appreciate the recommendation. ^_^
