I Think This Was My Quickest Rec Job Ever

xifengAnyway, it's Sunday again, so enjoy.
1.) Artemis the Huntress by J. Dawnwolf. This isn't Trojan War fic proper, but it's absolutely worth reading. A retelling of the story of Artemis and Orion from Apollo's point of view, it's witty, well-characterized, and clever. The ending seems a little rushed, but the previous chapters more than make up for it.
What else has this author done? Most of her other work seems to be in HP, Tolkien, and Artemis Fowl fandom, with a little bit of miscellaneous stuff thrown in here and there.
2.) Strange Armies in the Night by Gloria Mundi. Let us once again bid a merry hello to this staple of Lee's weekly recs. This features Achilles and Patroclus, my slash OTP (theirloveissomartial), and vague intimations of what's to come. Oh, and vague hints of BDSM, if you choose to read it that way.
What else has this author done? You know the drill—some POTC, some LOTR, some miscellaneous. Visit her site, Imagin'd Glories.
3.) Dido, through Anna by Anaimos. Most Trojan War fic is based on Homer, not Virgil, so this is a nice change. The use of color and imagery, in particular, is really great, as is the view through Anna's eyes, since she doesn't get a lot of face time even in the Aeneid.
What else has this author done? Nothing that I know about.
