Fan Fiction Review #028: Keeping Your Hooves On The Ground


Diabeetus...

   The Cutie Mark Crusaders ask Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy about what happened just after the events of the Cutie Mark Chronicles; specifically, what happened to Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash immediately after the race. Reluctantly, Dash and Fluttershy delve into a tale.  A tale of a young Fluttershy's amazement at the world she had landed upon, and a filly Dash's desperate quest to save her from that most evil of places: THE GROUND.

ARTillery Inbound #016

"You Shall Not Pass" by Inu-Hoshi-to-Dark Pen


Steel plating is useless in protecting the wearer in the rain. Then again, if your fighting some sort of beast off screen your probably not too concerned about that...

What you would be concerned about is how soon your next fire mission will arrive, in this next ARTillery Inbound!

Fan Fiction Review #027: Under A Luminous Sky


MURDER IN EQUESTRIA… a dime a dozen plot made better? Or just the same old nonsense?

Author: JakeThe Army Guy… (the one from the FOB’s lit. division?)
Ponyville, the humble village known for its peaceful tranquility, is shaken to its core when a body is discovered in the Everfree Forest. As the townsponies grieve, the strange, pale Special Agent Bentgrass, from Their Majesties' Royal Investigative Service, arrives at the Books and Branches library and drags Twilight into a world she's only read about: lies, corruption, suspicion, and murder. Faced with an indifferent police force, and Agent Bentgrass's infuriating methods, Twilight must put the pieces together and catch the killer. But as blood continues to spill and questions pile up, one thing is terrifyingly clear: in the dark of the Everfree, much more is at play than mere murder.
So a fic by one of our own fic reviewers…..oh imma have some fun with this one.
