Fan fiction.

Most are utter crap, but some are truly worth reading. This thread is for those that are worth reading.

I have one that I highly recommend: Shinji and Warhammer40k.

The title may be lacking, but the story isn't.

The grammar may annoy a grammar nazi, but it's still pretty good. Where the story shines, is in its insanity, and badassery.

The main character is Shinji Ikari, from Neon Genesis Evangelion, but he is much different. Mainly, he's a badass.

Hold your cries of heresy, and I shall explain how the largest wimp in Anime could become a badass.

A case of Warhammer 40k models and codexes.

I do not wish to say more, for I would hate to spoil anything.

Now, my recommendation is done, feel free to recommend fan fiction, and do a short review if you feel like it.

One last thing, though. I know advertising is against the rules, but I wasn't sure if this counts as advertising. If it does, just lock it and accept my apologies.

I don't read fan fiction...EVER. I figure, Hell if you're gonna write a story about Klau and Sephiroth, why not just write one about pac-man.

I'd recommend My Immortal.

It's an epic HP fanfic that will weave a subtle tale full of nuance and splendor. Don't check this out if you're not a fan of the more masterful literature, this one is for real coinasseurs only.

EDIT: Now with linkage! http://myimmortalrehost.webs.com/chapters122.htm

I would have to say the Slayers fanfiction by Stefan Gagne (http://www.pixelscapes.com/slayers/):
Slayers Trilogy(Reflect / Chaos / ReBirth)
Slayers Virtual
Slayers Demiurge

This man also created some very good modules for NWN 1 (can as far as I know be found through the link)

I think I saw a story similar to that but for Naruto fanfiction, I can't remember the link though. If I remember I'll edit.

My Immortal was one of a kind though. I'll never forget it no matter how hard I try

As for recommendations, I can't really help, I read to much and not many strike me as recommendable.

I did write some 40K fanfic, based around a bunch of Mercenary Guard led by a psyker and a psychopathic gland warrior. It's still very much in the process of writing, so I'll leave the link here and hope someone reads it.

Reviews and Assesments

Oh, and props on the story Mastersqueak, though I was hoping for something that was actually in the 40K universe, rather than based around it. Still, it's nice to see that 40K is appreciated.

Cxzint...I don't know if that was your work, or someone elses, but it was a pretty poor starter 'My Immortal'. Maybe I don't care for vampires and the like, but whoever wrote that needs to evolve their writing style a bit.

I think Cxizent was being sarcastic.

And I didn't write it, I'm just recommending. I think linking your own stories is too close to advertising.

Fine, although it's interrupting my 17th day in a row of relaxation.

Damn... how long is it? time to start reading...

Give me a verdict once you finish the prolouge.

...I better go cook breakfast and get a book to read.

it doesn't seem gory enough for me. not enough suffering.
does it get better?
although it is well writen. and it's more realistic than shinji actually kicking-ass for the Emperor.
I was mortified when I read that the case contained Chaos Marines though.

Well, bolters.

Not saying anything else.

Half Life: Full Life Consequences Free Man. I can't find the story, but there is a Youtube video of it.

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2636963/1/Harry_Potter_and_the_Nightmares_of_Futures_Past

Its a Harry Potter one, but is the exact opposite of that other fanfic. Simply put, an older Harry,(having defeated Voldemort, but everyone dies) sends his spirit back in time to his first year at Hogwarts (killing himself in the process) to try and make things better.

It is surprisingly well written, but it was started before the release of the seventh book so some things don't match canon.

There's a fair bit of gore in it, and things are taken quite seriously, giving the events of the first few books that dark edge that only the last three books had.

Unfortunately, seems a bit dead at the moment, no update since October last year.

One could argue that the Baldur's Gate novels were fan-fiction up to a point and they were good...up until Throne of Bhaal anyhow.

I can't link it cause the site is shit, but go to this site http://www.letsplayarchive.com/, search for the animal crossing LP (it's not really a LP, it's a fan fiction), and be amazed
