I love Kel's stories, too. But as you know, Kel takes her writing very seriously. And while her stories have humor, the best of them deal with serious, unresolved plot points that TPTB couldn't begin to manage, i.e. Scully's chip in "The Beginner's Guide to Tightrope Walking." Her best stories make you smile, but they also take you to the edge of your seat.

"Sokol" is very long, has an exciting but hard to follow plot AND, if memory serves, it's violent enough in places to require warnings. What people will or won't want to read here isn't the point. I agree it's one of the fandom's best. If you want to reread it, when we are done with the latest offering, go ahead and post it and moderate the discussion. You probably know it better than anyone except Khyber.
