Why This Must Be Read: This fantastic exploration of the Bill Lee's first encounter with SG-1 - and, particularly, Daniel - is not only a gripping story, but also a wonderful outsider POV of team friendship. I love the way Bill tries to understand the dynamics of Sam and Jack and Daniel's interactions with one another, and how so much goes over his head even as the reader comprehends SG-1's unique closeness. Add typical Jb drama and tension, and you've got a long, engrossing story of SG-1 at its best.

Why This Must Be Read: Twelve short ficlets about the team and other characters, unexpectedly waylaid by routine matters on Earth that trigger powerful reactions to anyone involved with the Stargate. My favorite ones are Bill's and Walter's (excerpted below), but these are all so powerful: the recognition that once you know what's out there, even the most mundane events can never be quite the same.

Why This Must Be Read: Inspired by the true story of the Lost Batallion of WWI, this story is... intense. Powerful. It's a tragedy that's like a train-wreck: you see it coming and can only watch helplessly as it gets closer and closer. Tiv'ester does an amazing job of showing events unfold, showing exactly when things start going wrong, and when assumptions, miscommunications and errors in judgement become deadly mistakes. And Daniel's in the centre of things, pinned down and waiting for backup with a team of off-world rookies and civilians. Because he was supposed to be leading a research mission on a planet that Jaffa hadn't visited in over a thousand years...

Why This Must Be Read: This is a hugely entertaining exploration of a reality where the Langford expedition discovers the quantum mirror rather than the Stargate. Bill Lee, General West, and the team that went through the Stargate in the movie (minus Jack and Daniel) are the only players we can recognize; but you'll fall in love with the original characters pretty quickly - especially Dr. Alicia Tremont, who is fabulous. Enjoy the in-character humor, the camaraderie, the intelligence of the players, and the nods to realities that are more familiar to us. A fantastic, absorbing read!

Why This Must Be Read: This is my personal classic Bill fic, retelling the two-part episode of Evolution from Bill Lee's POV. It's not just what we see on-screen, either; Aurora deftly fleshes out the story with with extra scenes and insight that brings both Bill and the story into vivid, vibrant life. It's always fun to read a good outsider's POV, and Bill is just enough on the inside - and the outside! - to give us the best of both worlds.

Long, satisfying, and full of character, Just a Scientist is a fic that you're sure to enjoy.

Link: OMG, They Killed Science!

Why This Must Be Read: Redbyrd is famous for her fanfic fix-its of the more outrageous canon errors. Here, in this hilarious little ficlet, she tackles the insanity of the science in Red Sky with tongue planted firmly in cheek and Bill and Sam in all their geeky glory!

At only 250-odd words, this will only take a minute or so to read, but it will leave you smiling for some time to come.

"Nuh-huh. I'm not going to try to explain this to the General." He glanced around and leaned forward conspiratorially. "Think we can get Felger to do it?"

Link: Five Things Bill Lee Learned About Daniel While They Were In Honduras

Why This Must Be Read: This delightful five things doesn't only tell us what Bill learned about Daniel during their misadventures in Evolution, but gives us the chance to learn a lot about Bill Lee, too. Whether it's why he doesn't use the SGC's gym or how he classifies Daniel's bravery or his fascination with Daniel's languages and dedication to pure science, this list shines a spotlight on both characters, and does both of them proud!

Bill knew he wasn't a particularly brave man, and he knew that Daniel Jackson was. After all, when Jack O'Neill walked into a room, Daniel smiled in greeting, instead of trying desperately to remain unobtrusive as most of the base's scientists would.

Why This Must Be Read: Ziparumpazoo does an amazing job with Bill's mental voice as he tries to fall asleep the night after Zero Hour. Perfect characterization and delightful humor is coupled with just a little wince at the realization that yes, even the "normal" scientists that work on the SGC have to deal with the insanely bizarre on a regular basis!

Short, sweet, and slightly zany: the perfect ficlet for Bill!

Bill blew out a sigh. This was silly. He'd been offworld dozens of times. Ok, not dozens. A few. Twice, actually.

Link: What Would Jack Do?

Author's summary: SG-1 and other SGC members get in situations where they follow a Jack O'Neill philosophy –- bitch and eat cake.

Why This Must Be Read: In a series of ten short fics spanning Seasons 1 through 9, Aurora showcases Jack's most Jack-like qualities by showing the effects of his influence on the people around him. Sometimes he's physically in the scene, sometimes he's referred to or he sends a note, but he's present in every moment of this, from Ferretti thinking twice about eating the 'special' cake to Teal'c trying the 'going wacko' thing in the time loop, from Griff giving guff to enemy Jaffa to Carter confronting her new command, from descended Daniel discovering how he still fits in with his team to Mitchell finding out why knee problems kind of go with the job. Each fic is an entertaining, insightful gem, and the reflected aspects of Jack are focused beautifully in the last one, which is from the point of view of Jack himself -- and lets him have the last word.

A wonderful portrait-in-mosaic. Plus, there's cake! Lots and lots of cake. :-)

About 10,300 words total.

Why This Must Be Read: This is a wonderful look at Daniel Jackson struggling to adapt to the changes that have happened to him. He's a scientists, yes, but he's also more than that and by juxtaposing him against Bill Lee, Layton Colt gives us a nice story about how much Daniel has changed and how he isn't quite sure where he fits anymore. It's an excellent character study.

Why This Must Be Read:
This is a brand-new fic by a new author, and very charming..

It's a Evolution 1& 2 account from Bill Lee's POV, giving us a very believable view of the SGC from his perspective. It fills in some logical holes and missing scenes in the original and gives us Bill's reactions to the mission. The characterizations for both major and minor characters are excellent, and the dialogue is snappy and often very funny.

It nicely extends and enriches the canon without wandering too far or going over the top, and wraps with some very nice Jack/Daniel dialogue. I hope other people will join me in encouraging this author to keep writing.. I think this is only her second fic, but it's a keeper!
