Plot: Willow and Angel are caught in a 'maelstrom of truth'...
Review: From the first attention-getting paragraph to the final touching surprise, 'Path Less Traveled' held my interest. I had to read it in one sitting. The characters were 3-dimensional, the dialogue was clever and in character, and the story line was very entertaining. Action, angst, humor, romance; all the things we've come to expect from the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Also, very few typos or mispelled words (sorry...these bug me). Easy to see, good contrast between type and background.
I reccomend all of the stories at this website. Consistantly good!

Plot: The appearance of a mysterious book changes Buffy and Giles' relationship, but why? And can the change be permanent?...
Review: Gabi has written many fics, and she has turned into one of my favourite writers, so it's not surprising that this ranks as one of my favourite B/G fics. It's well written, despite English being her second language, and has an unusual approach to the relationship. It was written during the summer after Graduation so some events are different to the series canon (obviously). Giles owns a bookshop, the Library, and Buffy works as his assistant. During this time they become closer and when a strange order of books arrives it's only natural that they break the monotony of owning a quiet bookshop by reading them.
What the books cause forces both characters, and also the readers, to examine their relationship and results in a surprisingly honest relatioship fic. Mixed in with some deep thoughts are some appropriately funny scenes (as well as the odd steamy one) and it all combines into a beautiful fic. If you haven't read B/G before (and you're of age) go read this one. It's worth it.
