The tale of the Genius and the Shepherd as they were known by some, the Madman and the Traitor by others, but who were they in each other’s eyes?
The tale of Fëanor and Fingolfin.
“I refuse to accept the Noldor are bound to the starless midnight of these petty lives the Valar have boxed us into. I refuse to accept we will never walk through these shadows and into the bright daybreak of freedom!” – Fëanor in The Revolutionary and the Usurper.

“Vengeance calls me hence…Yet I am not the only valiant in the valiant people. And have ye not all lost your King? And what else have ye not lost, cooped here in a narrow land between the mountains and the sea? ...Fair shall the end be, though long and hard shall be the road! Say Farwell to bondage! But say farewell also to ease! Say Farwell to the weak! ... Journey light: but bring with you your swords! For we will go further then Oromë, endure longer then Tulkas: we will never turn back from pursuit. After Morgoth to the ends of the Earth! War shall he have and hatred undying!” –Fëanor

Recommender's comments:
A beautiful romance between Gildor Inglorion and Haldir of Lorien... Difficult characters, painful pasts, promises made long ago and wishes made not entirely from the heart complicate matters. The story has a sequel named "If You Go Away" and I truly recommend you reading that one too even though the story has a happy end in the first part already. All the angst and drama is simply too awesome to miss out on!
(Also, this story features what is possibly my favorite characterization of Thranduil ever. And if you ever thought of him in a tub full of wine, do read this.)

Recommender's comments: This is epic, like watching something in Blue-Ray. I've never read this battle written. It's beautiful, deep, it conveys all the uncertainty and grimness of the battle. I felt the hope die. I cried.

Recommender's comments: This is an amazing AU, addictive like a soap series and at least as dramatic!
"The Fire Dance" is mostly centered around Glorfindel and Erestor, but in fact it gives us a peak in the lives of all our favorite elves, who are conveniently heaped together in Imladris for the sake of storyline.
There is loads and loads of slash to be had, MPreg in all sorts and sizes, old traumas, lost loves, feuds unsolved, cultural differences, and a heap of Valar with odd habits to finish it off! This story combines beautifully as many genres as you can think of without coming over as unnatural; it's one of the best I've ever read.
To entice any future readers: ever wanted to see Elrond in a dress, or Child!Namo involved in a food-fight? xD
As you may suspect, this is as AU as it gets... but I promise you that it's worth it, and once you start reading you'll get sucked into the story right away!

Recommender's comments: It is the first story of a series, set in the Third Age while the Ring War is resurfacing. The absolutly lovely twist in the storyline: Maedhros survived, managing to stay in contact with Maglor and Elrond. Due to his status and his history it is still not a happy fic (or a slash one, only gen) but there beginning's of healing in the Feanorian's hearts and some endearing hurt/comfort moments.
I recommened the series (three stories so far, but ongoing) especially to those who like what-if fanfictions and those who love Maglor and Maedhros. Fans will get their share, simply for the fact that they are not dead for once and with the author's writing style the series leaves defintely an impression. Certainly I one could get addicted to.
Elder Shadows (Maedhros, Maglor, Elrond)

Recommender's comments: A beautiful Aragorn/Legolas adventure/friendship. Nightwing is a truly wonderful writer; this story is filled with pathos and danger. One of the first fanfic stories I ever found, and one which made me like Aragorn more than decades of reading the books (or seeing the films. he's just not a favorite of mine.)
It is the one genfic I can keep reading, probably because the relationship between Aragorn and Legolas is so lovely. Unfortunately, it has not been updated in years, (although I recently heard from the author and hope she will return to it.) but it is still well worth the read, as it is a long story and about two-thirds complete.

Recommender's comments: An unexpected look into Carcharoth’s origin; twisted and intriguing, but what do you expect from Melkor’s deeds otherwise? The story is full of surprises, and I have never read anything that surpasses its originality for this particular topic so far.
