desoto_hia873 | Buffyverse Top 5

Five favourite authors and fics I discovered through judging the Raison D'être Awards in 2005:

1. Ring the Bell Backward (WIP) by

st_salieri: Post-NFA Spuffy. Really well written – good flow, very observant, great character voices. A fic that’s hard to stop reading. Sequel to The Use of Memory.

2. Canis Familiar by

sockmonkeyhere: Post-NFA Spred, the return of Oz, and fantastic OCs. A sequel to Re-entry, which tells you how Fred came back.

3. Legions of True Hearts by

eurydice72: Beautifully written Spuffy - well, sort of Spuffy. You'll see. A Stone’s Throw From Yesterday (which I did not read for the RDAs, but just finished) is also excellent.

4. Dirty Back Road by

thedeadlyhook: BtVS S6 Spuffy. Adventure, comedy, smut – this fic has it all. A fun read.

5. The Prague Series by Fayjay: Pre-Sunnydale Spike and Dru in Prague. Vicious, delicious, and Gwendolyn Post! Very well written.

I discovered alot of great new-to-me authors through the RDAs - these are just a few of my faves. You can find your own favourites here:
