Summary: "Save the Children, get them out of here." SW/SG-1/Buffy Cross
Why This Must Be Read: It takes a talented author to balance and weave a story based on two fandoms, this one manages brilliantly with three. This crossover centers on one of my favorite characters in the SG-1 universe, the Jack clone from 'Fragile Balance'. A lot of stories and crossovers try to flesh him out, give him a story and purpose, this fic manages to do all that and not compromise the fact that this is Jack O'Neill. Buffy is his partner for this particular adventure (she'd say he was the other way around, of course) and this is Post-Chosen Buffy with lots of angst but also lots of experience. Their task? To save the children. Star Wars fans can probably guess what that means. And the brilliant thing about this fic? Neither Buffy nor Jack know about the SW universe so if you're not a SW fan you learn along with them, and if you are, you catch all the nifty nuances. Win-win, methinks.
Extra: "Changing the Death Toll" is finished but the author started a sequel which hasn't been updated in awhile, Live in This World, Year Zero. It deals with the continuation of the plot as well as delving into what's happening with those left behind. Not recommended if you want a neat finish but it's good writing for those who get hooked on the first part.
