Why This Must Be Read

The author recommends that you begin reading this fic by watching the trailer and then listening to the sound bites before moving to the main text.

This is by far the best multimedia fic that I have ever come across in any genre of any fandom that I have ever dabbled in.

This AU is told through letters, photographs, documents and errata woven around the story of John as an airforce test pilot and Rodney as an engineer during WWII.

The whole fic is beautifully presented, with WWII era documents from the National Archives and small touches like the typefaces and fonts used to reflect the different narratives.

Don't forget to explore the whole site, every page is absolutely amazing. The amount of work involved in creating this is almost unimaginable.
