| 15 | * Recommended by: Zashiki-Warashi, Esmenet, Saltyavocado |
| 16 | * Comments: The author has somehow become one of my new favorites. The AU's are all interconnected with each other and the longest one (''Lord and Prince'') has managed to become a huge sprawling project that is largely successful because the author knows how to create a real, believable world and even [[OriginalCharacter OCs]] that are engaging. The less numerous canon stories are also enjoyable to read. Most of the stories are yaoi, so be warned. |
