Fic Rec: The Heritage Series
Title: Heritage
Author: chappysmom
Pairing: Gen
Length: Varies, but usually around ~25k
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: none
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary:
A series of AUs where ONE fact gets changed and then everything else changes in its wake--all while keeping as much canon-compliance as possible (army doctor, invalided home, alcoholic sister, crime-solving with Sherlock).
Reccer's comments:
I'm not one for gen!fic, so I'm surprised by how much I love this series by chappysmom. Basically, she tells the same story over and over again: John, unknown to everyone else, is actually related to English peerage. Then she takes a single element, some of them very surprising, and explores how each of our beloved characters would respond based on that single change. It's really just a huge multi-part character study, but it's done so well that I don't mind ready the same story 11 (!) times.
