| 14 | * ''Comments'': Fox Cort 24 has written in the Aladdin-verse for over 10 years under several other pen names on ff.net, but since it has been a very long time, he decided to begin fresh new name, his Aladdin stories are one of the best I every read. |

| 21 | * Recommended by JBriskin |
| 22 | * ''Status'': Complete |
| 23 | * ''Synopsis'': Set in the time frame of ''WesternAnimation/AladdinTheSeries'', Iago is still haunted by his past as Jafar's lackey. It comes to a head when, one night, Jafar re-manifests himself inside Iago's mind, with the intention of exacting revenge on both the bird and his new allies. Will Iago's friendship with Jasmine, Al and the gang help him to vanquish the scheming sorcerer once and for all? |
| 24 | * ''Comments'': Very well-written, with all of the cast true to their on-screen characterizations -- Iago in particular, while reformed, is still just as saucy as ever. Does a good job of peeling back the layers of Iago's mind, as well, highlighting how difficult it can be to recover from a traumatic past. |

| 45 | * Recommended by Tropers/LainaJan |
| 46 | * ''Status'': Ongoing |
| 47 | * ''Synopsis'': Set after 3rd movie. After Sultan's death, there remains many controversies about Aladdin's capability as a ruler. One wrong decision set the things spiraling down fast. Even Jasmine's support is not enough when somone else have claim on the throne too. This time even magic is not enough to help. A realistic take on Aladdin's journey to become a Sultan. |
| 48 | |
| 49 | * ''Comment'': New Aladdin Fanfics are rare, and it is the newest one which hooked me from the 1st chapter. It is very realistic and dark tale means very mature journey through the politics of Agrabah. Best part is that the author remains true to the Middle Eastern culture and religeious practice of that time. The author is also famous for her realistic Mulan Fanfic 'Perfect Bride'. Its a shame that her new story has not enough recognition yet. |

| 56 | * ''Synopsis'': My take on the 3rd Aladdin movie. Desdane returns for revenge and Mozenrath has no choice but to ally with Aladdin and company to battle for all that is. Desdane gathers all of Aladdin's enemies into one army, while Aladdin teams up with allies old and new (Sadira, Genie, etc). Shadows from Al's past add to the tension, while Cassim searches for Aladdin and his brother. |

| 124 | * ''Synopsis'': Mozenrath challenges Jasmine to stop him from enacting a flawless plan. In the process she finds there can be much more at stake than everything. |

| 126 | ** Seconded. Cantare is able to draw out sympathy for Mozenrath while keeping him consistent to his characterization, and manages to develop his relationship with Jasmine in a believable way without falling prey to RonTheDeathEater or DracoInLeatherPants. The story has a gripping plot, beautiful writing, and is highly recommended. I also suggest reading the other short works in the series--''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5885599/1/Shards Shards]]'', which describes some of the events of ''Antiphony'' from Aladdin and co.'s point of view; ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4780635/1/Sunset Sunset]]'', occurring before Aladdin met Jasmine and delving a little into his backstory; and ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4387522/1/The-Scent-of-Absence The Scent of Absence]]'', a one-shot from Mozenrath's perspective that occurs right before the epilogue. |

| 213 | * ''Comments'': I am generally the last person to support any type of Canon/Original Character pairing, but this writer weaves in so much interesting mythology into the "Aladdin" universe, that I have to recommend it. Any many ways, it feels like it is just a particularly intriguing episode of the television show. It is set post-"King of Thieves," so no Iago flapping around (my second favorite character next to Genie), but I don't mind the loss of the parrot. This story really makes you wonder about Genie's comment near the end of the first movie: "You won't find another girl like her in a million years. Believe me, I know. I've looked." |

However, this fic totally manages it - it paints a pretty impressive picture of infatuation one could probably empathize with without actually making the villain sympathetic. Other than that, it's rather authentic and well-written. Warning: slash. |
