Summary

"Summary: Highlander/X-Files/HL:The Raven crossover. Several months after Not to Be, Methos receives a late night call from Joe Dawson. Has someone finally gotten the best of Duncan MacLeod? Or is there more going on? Methos' faith and courage are tested to the limits as he fights to learn the truth about MacLeod's fate."

Author's Notes

"Author's Notes: For those extremely rare Highlander: The Raven fans who pay attention to timelines, I've fiddled with this one a little. This story takes place after "The Manipulator," but before "The Ex-Files." Bert is still in Paris, however, and it's still April, which is a slight bending of canon. In X-Files canon, this takes place in the middle of season six, some time after "One Son."

A huge thank you to everyone who helped beta read this over the years. Most especially, thanks to elynross and MacGeorge, who did most of the heavy lifting and encouraging.

Dedicated to elyn and Deb, who make it worthwhile."

Reactions and Reviews

I first started reading this story when it was a wip being posted in parts, but I stopped because it was too stressful (I don't do well with uncertainty and death) and I thought it best to wait until it was completed and read the ending first, which I did; then I started again from the beginning. What a ride! My one dissatisfaction with the story is that it so makes me want to read a sequel. What can I say? I'm blood thirsty enough that I want the "bad guys" to pay and pay dearly for their actions. I also wonder now that The Syndicate know about Immortals and Immortals know about The Syndicate, what role will immortals play regarding the alien invasion that is suppose to occur December 22, 2012.
