calufraxStory: Ashes of Gallifrey ; Dust of Eden
Author: Metz
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 17488
Author's Summary: The Doctor is injured and stranded on a planet that's been ravaged by a race with an unknown purpose. Working with the woman who found him to solve the mystery and save the planet, the Doctor comes to believe they're also fighting an old friend.
Characters/Pairings: Original Companion, Other Character(s), The Doctor (10th)
Warnings: Swearing
Recced because:
The Time War caused the whole universe to convulse, and this is one of the best fics I’ve read that deals with the ramifications of that sentence.
This is a Tenth Doctor story told in first person from the POV of an original character, and I know that might turn some people off (which is another reason I’m reccing this; because I want it to get the love it so justly deserves). I absolutely urge people to give this story a chance – it may just astound you. The descriptions, the characterisations, and the plot are all top notch and so gritty-real it hurts sometimes. Also, there’s a cameo from a past companion, but I won’t give up the game on who it is. It’s very clever though, and just a little bit heartbreaking. Which is a good description of the story as a whole actually.
Enjoy!
