Rec: Another World by Blucougar57
Title: Another World
Author: Blucougar57
Genre: Drama/Sci Fi
Rating: T (Suitable for teens, 13 years and older, with some violence, minor coarse language, and minor suggestive adult themes.)
Summary: A rash of inexplicable murders leads to a clash of cultures when a secretive agency moves in on NYPD territory, and Bobby Goren finds he may well have met his match in the mysterious Captain Jack Harkness...
Status: WIP
Length: 107,813 words
Warnings: Some violence and graphic scenes.
Comment: Blucougar's Another World is one of my favorite Torchwood fics to date. There's a lot to this story. It's long, and extremely well written. This fic manages to be both a character piece and to have an exceptional plot - usually stories tend one way or the other. It's also a crossover with Law and Order: Criminal Intent, but don't let that scare you away. The fic strikes a fair balance between the two shows, with perhaps a bit more focus on the Torchwood team. I'm not familiar with the Law and Order fandom, really, but I found it easy to slip into this fic. And of course it's Jack/Ianto, heaped on top of a mighty serving of angst as Jack tries to cope with the fallout from the year that never was, while leading his team and trying to catch a monster. And Ianto's there for him, which is written in a really sweet, believable way.

And I think I'm getting vicarious joy from someone else reading and enjoying this fic. It really is wonderful, and I think that because of where it's posted it hasn't gotten as much attention as it might have otherwise.
