I participated in bookishwench 's feedback a thon which was a great idea. I looked through the feedback to see if anyone did it the way I did (no, of course not). I did it like I do my critiques for a writers group, go through it and pull out lines/passages I like/dislike and say why then give a synopsis of my thoughts. Others did it like Maren did mine, a nice overview of what worked and what didn't while yet others did it more like they were writing reviews for a newspaper. Interesting.

Anyhow, the stories I read were well worth reading and reccing so here goes.50thousandtearz (a lot of us know her as missmorganpryce) had on offer The Solace of Hell which is my favorite of the three, detailing Wes and Lilah (and others) in a very Hades sort of Hell. Inevitablity a series of vignettes detailing Lilah's life and death and death and death. And Just Out of Reach a Justine centric piece of flash fiction that really works well.

liz_marcs had three really good and kinda longish (about 30 pages, except the Mars one which is about half that). Into the Desert It's my favorite. It's Post-Chosen and spans almost 20 years after that. To say any more would ruin it. Mars Rising It's Xander- Centric, Post Chosen and uses the closeness of Mars' orbit as a metaphor. Revelations Again post-Chosen and Xander centric yet it's from everyone's POV but his. It gives Xander a very interesting new background though occasionally it got a little to no one ever helped poor Xander for me but that was minor. Note: all of these are on ffn so use the drop down menu to get to the ad blocker as needed.

All 6 of these stories are well worth reading.
