Recs and Reviews

(eventual slash, supernatural elements): Steve and Danny are chasing a murderer who happens to be a dangerous kahuna. I’m not too keen on supernatural elements being used in fanfiction if they’re not canonically present in the original series (I’m deliberately ignoring Mrs Kekoa’s ghost in episode 2x07; it was a one-off thing, possibly only for comic relief), but this story is pretty good, so there you have it.

"Exquisite story, both from an in-character POV and a realistic use of Hawaiian folklore view, and it was a cracking good story , to boot!"

"Excellent action/adventure with a huge helping of Hawaiian mythology and some detailed description of Hawaiian countryside, flora and fauna. The romance is mostly UST until the last couple of pages. Good writing. Highly recommended."

"It’s so well written! The supernatural element is superb and there’s Danny!whump which is always a bonus."
