Recs and Reviews

"Addictions" and "Turnabout" present the same basic concept in two different flavors, both very enjoyable. To summarize the plot very briefly and inadequately: in the first story, Krycek abducts Mulder, and in the second, it's the other way around. In both cases, Mulder flashes back to a deeply-buried episode in his past. In "Turnabout II", Mulder goes through dramatic personality changes as a direct result – this one is my favorite of the bunch. The "Turnabout: Detour" stories explore yet another alternate scenario, darker still, in which Mulder is never freed from serial killer Bobby McCain and Alex outsmarts himself.
