Why this must be read: As a crossover with SG1 and a fusion with The Sentinel, "Redemption" covers this category twice over.esteefee creates a world where Sentinels are second-class citizens, Guides can be anyone, and the bond can be broken, if necessary.
With these factors in play, "Redemption" takes a thoughtful look at John Sheppard as a Sentinel without a Guide who hides his true nature and ends up undone by his instincts. Rodney McKay, who isn't a Guide and doesn't know if he wants to become one, gets pulled along as John tries to adapt to life as a known Sentinel – and life at the bizarre world of the SGC. Exciting, funny, sexy, and a little heartbreaking, this story does what fusions do best: it highlights the hidden depths in familiar characters and lets them shine.
