Post Pandemonium is a Blake's 7 Avon/Blake story by Bryn Lantry.

It was originally printed in Resistance #5 and is now online.

Summary

"Blake in a funk after Star One and the Andromedan War."

Author's Notes

"Has most of my faults and little else. - But chase up the Swinburne poem. It's Sappho to a woman who has abandoned her: explicit, blasphemous and fierce." [1]

Reactions and Reviews

Bryn Lantry: Lovely dark, complex mood piece (with splendid dialogue). A & (wounded, laser-blasted) B in a rather dilapidated doss-house, struggling with irreconcilable differences of approach in philosophy, politics, and their ambiguous relationship to each other. Impressive. [2]

... excellent (speaking as a Lantry fan, to be fair).... Avon does find Blake after Star One, still injured and now unwilling to go back to Earth. They fight, make love, argue, make love...all with Bryn's wonderful rich dialogue. This is a splendid story. [3]

I thought I hadn't read this one... but it is on AO3. Another unusual premise in that Avon tracks down Blake post series 2. They exchange a lot of confusing dialogue about their previous relationship, and I assume conclude that they want to be together. Nice premise, but I find the execution too difficult to actually enjoy. [4]
