Recs and Reviews

(P/K, mild d/s) -- Don't get me wrong, I love Paris-angst combined with Harry-innocence, but I also love someone taking a familiar dynamic and turning it upside-down. In this great series (8 stories, I think?), torch gives us a Harry who goes after what he wants, and then she follows the guys through various relationship challenges. A+ writing and hot sex. [1]

What five stories would you recommend as an introduction to slash to someone just starting to read it? Minotaur: Torch's M/K stuff above all, both "Ghosts" and "Lovers". "Solitary Creatures" (Sentinel) by Aristide, "A Little Touch of Harry in the Night" (P/K) by CKC, The "Playboy of the Delta Quadrant" series, (P/K), the author of which escapes me at the moment, and finally, my own "Three Proofs", a Superman/Jimmy.
