| 3 gen fics suitable for all ages |
[Oct. 5th, 2008|08:13 am] |
This week we have a dearth of responses to my challenge, so instead I would like to recommend for your attention one heartwarming fic on the origins of a Narnian festival and two short, off-beat humour fics.
Northern Winds by Narelena
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3358142/1/Northern_Winds
Winter brings back the memories of Her reign in Narnia.
I love the little tributes to canon throughout, and the underlying premise of the fic. Of course Winter would bring back bad memories: snow and ice and the Witch are twined together in Narnians’ memories.
Edmund: Owner's Guide and Maintenance Manual by opera13
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2731882/1/Edmund_Owners_Guide_and_Maintenance_Manual
Just your average Edmund. Enjoy!
Slightest Inkling by H Max Marius
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3163367/1/Slightest_Inkling
Professor Kirke writes to CS Lewis
This is little bigger than a snippet but I liked the way the fic twined reality and fiction in a plausible way. I hope you do too.

| Three Narnian fan-fiction worlds |
[Sep. 28th, 2008|03:02 pm] |
As my first post I would like to recommend for your attention three wonderful writers who have created amazing worlds of Narnian fan-fiction.
elecktrum
http://www.fanfiction.net/u/450594/elecktrum
The first place I looked for Narnian fan-fiction was FanFiction.net, and luckily I happened upon elecktrum's work quite quickly, with Black Dwarfs, Blue River - still my favourite story of her work. Then I glommed the rest of her Narnia fics!
eleckrum is the 'lightest' of the three recommended writers in this post, which is not to say that her work has no darker shades, but I think her work retains more fantasy and I would not hesitate to let my 11yo read it, which I would not do with the other two writers. The only reservation I would have is that one of the characters remembers being sexually abused at some point, but I think it is very tastefully handled.
elecktrum states that she is a Christian writer, however she does not bludgeon the reader over the head with it, so for non-Christians I would say that if you read C.S.Lewis then you are already reading Christian literature and will not be offended by elecktrum's work.
burntcopper
http://burntcopper.livejournal.com/tag/fic:narnia
burntcopper does not have as much work on display as the other writers, but the fics of hers that I have read, I have really enjoyed. She focusses upon Edmund and Peter as warriors, and proposes interesting careers for them in Post-War Britain's army. They are edgy and funny. Enjoy!
bedlamsbard, especially her Warverse
http://bedlamsbard.livejournal.com/260939.html
I find bedlamsbard's Warverse a little too dark for my usual tastes, but she has a large body of work of excellent quality. Her Peter in particular can be quite chilling. Like the other recommended authors, the primary relationships explored are the sibling ones, although there is at least one non-explicit slash fic in this 'verse.
I hope you enjoy these recommendations and please feel free to post your own. Tell us why you enjoy the fic, where to find it and warn for ratings and slash/het. |
