An extraordinary, intricately plotted, wonderfully characterised gothic horror/romance with clever allusions to Greek mythology which sees Sam and Dean coping with the end of the world. Poor Sam and Dean literally go through hell in this story. Utterly addictive (it may be nearly 50,000 words long but once you start reading you won't want to stop), its an emotional rollercoaster ride that will leave you wanting more.
Superb.

Dean must take care of Sam after he is permanently impaired after a hunt goes badly wrong.
A very strong character study of Dean Death's Other Kingdom hands down wins the prize for the most depressing, saddest Supernatural story I've ever read! This story has just plain haunted me. It's agonisingly sad but manages (just!) to avoid being bleak. This works far better than some of the other dark fic I've read simply because Sam's accident and recovery, as gut wrenching as they are to read about are firmly grounded in reality and the story is all the stronger for it.Definitely worth reading.....just not if you're feeling the slightest bit fragile.
Dean poked his 15-year-old brother, who was reading a book. "Sammy, would you rather be blind or deaf?"
Sam went back to his book. After several minutes, he looked up again, cocking his head thougthfully. "You know, Dean, I'm not sure it would matter.
Because if I was blind or deaf, wouldn't you just be my eyes or ears?"
