Why this must be read:
I like the compressed time structure of this fic; the entire eight chapters take place over the course of a weekend soccer tournament. I also appreciate the fact that it features Ryan's somewhat unlikely friendship with Luke. The set-up: Ryan, almost against his better judgment, joins Luke at summer soccer camp, and they end up competing at a tournament against a very imposing rival team. I am the furthest thing from a sporty person, but I was fascinated by how much drama and angst the author was able to develop on the "battleground" of the soccer field. This is a rather engrossing look at the "jock" side of Ryan that does not get explored that often.
