This one has been on my to-read list for a while, and I just now got around to it. Everyone else has probably read it already, but I just need to express my complete love for this fic. It's seriously one of the best fics I think I've read this year.
I love![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
furiosity's writing in general, but this is IMO probably the best fic of hers I've ever read. It's rare that I find a fic so utterly flawless, but this one -- gah, there's nothing I would change. Nothing. There wasn't a single moment where I stopped to think about the writing, or the choice of a word, or the direction the story was going, or the characterizations. I spent the entire time reading it completely enthralled by it, and that is really, really rare for me.
The premise of this fic is just amazing. It felt like an epic from the beginning, and I love epics, so I knew I was in for a treat. But what really blew me away was the intricacy of it all, the fact that she clearly built this world in her mind and then gave the reader only as much information as they needed at any moment. World-building is part of the fun of writing an epic, but it's something that many writers don't do, especially not for a novella-length fic. Even if she never continues this (and I really hope she intends to), this fic feels like a glimpse into an entire HP universe, and that's just fucking great writing.
I have a long and spoilery review onemma_recs if you're interested.
Sin For Me, byfuriosity
Rating: R
Pairing: Harry/Draco
Summary: Harry never expected the peace to last forever. Dumbledore taught him better than that. He just didn't expect the next war to begin less than a month after Voldemort died. Never would he have dreamed that it would be a man's personal war against a system. The wizarding world was that system, and Harry was that man.
ETA: And she just posted more (unrelated to this series) fic! This really must be my lucky day!
I love
