Any GOOD fanfics out there?

[Fieldy409_v1legacy]

Google 'Divine Judgement Malal' and you should find this warhammer 40k fanfic that is just awesome. Its about a chaos marine who serves a Chaos god that was retconned out of existence due to copyright issues. Malal lives on though in the writings of fanfics.

Malal is the god of hate or revenge I believe(its been a while since I was into 40k) and he hates the other chaos gods. This Malal worshipping marine works to keep the chaos gods from working together with assasination and framings. Its combat is done really well.

edit:hmm I decided not to be lazy and put a link here...and I cant find it. Thats a damn shame...

40k Has good fanfic anyway. Its a universe designed to have room to make your own worlds and armies, so it lends itself well to fanfic too. Its not like if you write a LOTR fanfic and try to insert a new city and a lotr nerd pulls out a map and asks you to point out where it is!

I've found a few that are simply amazing. They're all pony ones, that's the only fanfic I'm willing to read.

On A Cross and Arrow [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/06/story-on-cross-and-arrow.html] (Adventure, Rule 63)
Through The Eyes of Another Pony [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/08/story-through-eyes-of-another-pony.html] (Adventure/Comedy)
The Contest [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/11/story-contest.html] (Comedy)
Rarity's Rodeo [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/07/story-raritys-rodeo.html] (Slice-of-Life, Shipping)
Swayback Mountain [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/01/story-swayback-mountain.html] (Shipping)
The Ballad of Twilight Sparkle [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/story-ballad-of-twilight-sparkle.html] (Comedy, Shipping)

and finally, Romance Reports by SleeplessBrony which I won't link because it has some explicit scenes, but it's quite possibly one of the best stories I've ever read. You'll have to search it out yourself.

Going to recommend my own stuff, specifically the Mass effect ones. Why? Because people seem to like them and I'm a glutton for reviews.

I was never into fanfics, until I heard about My Little Dashie. So well written, reduced me to tears. Not "a single tear drops down my cheek" tears, but "Blubbering like a ninny" tears.

Then there's What Separates, essentially a "Human in Equestria" story that's very well realized, and Dear Diary, What am I?, a backstory for Discord.

My Immortal is amazing. It's so bad it's genius.

 

[repeating integers]

Good and fan fic are mutually exclusive concepts.

False. 90% of fanfics are crap, just like everything else - but there are so many, and they're all so easily accessible, that the 90% is very obvious and sometimes seems like 100%.

Two of my favourites are currently
1) Chunin Exam Day - Naruto
77 reasonably long chapters but it's a good read even if I haven't finished it yet.
2) Brilliant Creatures - Pokemon / Harry Potter crossover
I've lost count of how many times I've read that one and still not sick of it. I'm fairly sure I've read the full thing twice in two days once.

It's an interesting crossover of a story and I've been enjoying it thus far: The Queen Who Fell to Earth [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7591040/1/The_bQueen_b_bwho_b_bfell_b_to_bEarth_b#]

It's Harry Potter crossed with Dragonriders of Pern. It's one of those fics that doesn't sound like it'd work but it does, much akin to Fallout:Equestria.

Dragonriders of Pern you say? I rather enjoyed those books, might have to take a peek at that.
Phew, this is a hard one, can't remember many that I've read, though I'll second FO:E and some of it's off shoots (from what I've read of Project Horizons, I'm actually liking it better)

Meh, can't remember any names, though I do remember reading this short lil fic about how "Twinkle" got its name (Drizzt) and it was hilarious. May not have been written well, but it was a fun read.

I'll third FO:E and its light-hearted spin-off Pink Eyes.

As for some other (MLP) fics I've remembered:

Heavenly Turmoil [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/10/story-heavenly-turmoil.html], which is a fantastically dark take on Discord and his somewhat chequered history.

It's Always Sunny In Fillydelphia [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/06/story-its-always-sunny-in-fillydelphia.html], which is one of the best ship-fics out there (it certainly doesn't overdo the shipping), and was one of the first MLP fan stories I read.

Elements Of Awesomery [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/07/story-elements-of-awesomery.html], which is one of those deliberately badly-written fanfics, and it is hilarious.

(Also, out of interest, how far into Project Horizons are you?)

Want a nice long one? Well try Apostates of Ameranthine of the DA:O fanfiction, over 100 chapters and it's STILL not done, almost but not quite. It's set during and after Awakening. The same author also has one set during the main game with the same character.

Do give it a read if you have the time.
