Why this must be read:
Summary: "Just once I'd like for some Pegasus natives to not have a psychotic religion based around appeasing the Wraith by trying to kill us." (1.4k words)

This is a quick, fun little adventure: Rodney has been captured and John injured. Teyla and Ronon are keeping an eye on Rodney and letting John know what's happening. Rodney has learned a lot from being on the team — if not quite as much as he thinks — but unfortunately, being himself, he doesn't have the wisdom to know what not to say to his teammates.

Why This Must Be Read: In this classic fic, events turn sharply AU after Absolute Power as Daniel suddenly goes on the run. By the time Hammond tracks him down in Cascade, it's not just the NID that are after him, but some Lovecraftian creatures with an agenda of their own. Add a crossover with Sentinel, strong characterization, and a gripping storyline, and you'll find yourself reading this at a breathless gulp, desperate to know what happens next!

The Many Likes of Ronon Dex by Sabershadowkat (PG)

Show: SGA
Rec Category: Ronon Dex
Characters:: Ronon Dex
Pairing: McKay/Sheppard, Ronon/Teyla UST

Why This Must Be Read: I love fics that center on Ronon's POV of Atlantis. This reads a little bit like a 'day in the life', or maybe a week in the life, as we get a glimpse of how Ronon sees the Atlanteans. I love Ronon's humorous outlook, as well as the way that the author was able to portray his military/warrior personality.
