Rec: Somnambulists

[librarylover82.livejournal.com]

Hi, I'm LibraryLover82 (Library_Lover on Teaspoon), and I'll be your reccer this week.  I read a little bit of everything, and even though I like Torchwood and SJA, this week will be all about Doctor Who.  I've tried to do a good mix of story length, era, and characters, so hopefully you will find something you enjoy.

Story: Somnambulists

Author: ClocketPatch

Rating: All ages

Word Count: 15,271

Author's Summary: "We live to survive our paradoxes" - The Tragically Hip

Characters/Pairings: Academy Era Doctor

Warnings: None

Recced because:

It almost wouldn't be a week on Calufrax without a story from ClocketPatch, so I'm starting there!  This is one of those stories that makes you ask, “How has this never been recced here before?”  I really like glimpses into the Doctor's distant past.  This story doesn't just give you a glimpse; it invents it.  Words like timey wimey, ambitious, breathtaking, and amazing don't do it full justice.  I don't know how CP kept her story lines straight long enough to write this, but I'm so glad that she did.

That is a gorgeous fic, and I'm glad it got recced. You really get a sense of just how alien the Time Lords are.
