Why this must be read: This is a beautifully written, thoroughly true story about what it costs to love when life has no limits and you realise that nothing is forever, not even for Immortals. Carene has written near-perfect characterisations of all the canon characters and set them in a story that's both bittersweet and satisfying. The harshness of the physical setting is a very fitting backdrop to the story. The sex is hot and real and truly in-character for both men, as is all the dialogue.
Methos felt as if he'd been caught in free-fall, pulled from a fathomless chasm onto solid ground. He stared at Duncan and felt something anchoring him, and it wasn't love he saw in Duncan's eyes, it was his death. It will end, he thought. And someone will mourn for me. The relief he felt was sharp, painful and wonderful, and he finally stopped. He stopped running. Landed.
"Not today," he breathed.
Duncan smiled. "Not today."
