Reactions and Reviews

The first time I read this Man from UNCLE fic, I was struck by how giddy the characters seemed to be during the smutty scenes, almost as though they'd been freed from normal constraints on their behavior and could indulge their secret fantasies. Which, in a way, is how I see slash fiction. So naturally, this fic is a favorite of mine, by a tremendously talented author.[1]

Why this must be read: Because it's absolutely hilarious. It reaches the playfulness of a really fun season three episode† without descending to the completely ridiculous.

Brenda brings in a one-shot Thrush black widow (Angelique) from an early season one episode, provides her with a mysterious powder, douses Napoleon and Illya with it, and just lets the fun unfold.[2]
