    Bookmarker's Notes

    I consider this one required reading for the better-than-canon TF fanfiction 101 course. An expansive, imaginative, gritty prewar chronicle following Soundwave from his beginnings to Megatron's orbit, and one of my all-time favorite novels of any kind. If it were a book, I would buy it in hardcover- and a coffee table to put it on.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Throw every assumption you might have about TF fics with a human OC main character out the window for this one. This is like the cerebral PhD level chronicle of what happens when robots from Cybertron try to figure out how to live on Earth with its moist, terrifying inhabitants. There's sap, sand (so much sand), and wacky waving inflatable tube man religion. And it's COMPLETE. What more could you want?

    Summary

    After the Beast Wars, the crew of the Axalon were either dismissed or reassigned to various quiet posts throughout the galaxy -- heroes of a war which no one could ever know about. Now a civilian contractor retired from service, Rattrap is asked by Optimus Primal to attend to one last task for the Cybertronian High Council: identify the remains of Protoform X.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This is a great little epilogue for the nine-year-old in anyone who was torn asunder by grief for Dinobot. It's a fun and sassy follow-up that I think everyone deserves.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Unfinished, but still a definitive pre-war text that is deeply immersive and fascinating. The socio-economic dynamics are unusually rich and create a unique vibe throughout. Romance limited to a budding crush in existing content.
