Foz Meadows mentioned this series a while ago and it's one of those things that is both obviously a work of original fiction...and also fanfiction when you read fanfiction as a genre like mystery. Its approach to romance, to relationships, to world-building is reminiscent of fanfiction, which is amazing because it means fanfiction is developing into a genre that we can talk about and study.
Obviously I enjoyed it, but I wonder how it would read/feel to someone unfamiliar with the genre.
