I found a tool "that converts stories into ebooks" and tried it out with a NCIS fanfiction net story to make sure it works. So now I'm looking for recommendations for:

1) Rodney McKay centric stories
2) Team centric stories
That are housed on fanfiction net, are long, that you have gone back to re-read a few times because you like them so much. If the story you like so much is by an author there whose SGA stories you love in general, please note that.

Also for other people within this community, if you know of a long story hosted on fanfiction net that does not meet my two requirements but others might like to read rec it here and maybe other people with ereaders can use the tool to convert the recommended fic too.

Note: any pairing but Rodney/Keller is welcome for both McKay centric and Team centric stories. Thank you.

Ooh, I can give you a bunch, because I started out in this fandom reading on ff.net, and most of what I like is, well, what you're looking for. :D

Here are a few:

Maybe I'm Dead, I Just Haven't Stopped Moving Yet by Cybersyd42 - long plotty Rodney h/c with lots of friendship (I recommend the rest of her stuff too)

Happy and The Known World by skypig21 (team)

The Last Survivor by Kodiak Bear Country (she tends to write more Sheppard-oriented stuff in general, but she also does a wonderful Rodney and this is my favorite of her stories, with lovely friendship scenes between the boys and a great narrator voice - she writes a lot of McKay-Sheppard friendship so you might also check out the rest of her stuff)

EVERYTHING by Tipper and NotTasha is great, and exactly what it sounds like you're looking for. I especially like Under Glass, Failure to Communicate, and Never Stop Moving.

You might also look through my favorites on my ff.net author page because I've got a bunch more stories and authors bookmarked that might be to your liking. :) I don't read on ff.net much anymore and I've quit posting there (I always mean to go back and get caught up) but it used to be my main fic source.

Huh... I hadn't quite realized just how John-centric my reading trends were for longer stories over on FF.net. LOL! Otherwise, most of my recs have already been given above -- unless you want the less than 10,000wds. stories. ;)


I love kashkow (http://www.fanfiction.net/u/810498/kashkow)'s stories -- I've probably read all of them at least 3 times.

The ones that closest match your request, but not quite since the stories are generally John-centric with a somewhat healthy serving of Rodney & some tiny side-servings of Ronon & Teyla are --

"That Sinking Feeling" (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3796056/1/That_Sinking_Feeling)

"Boys Will Be Boys" (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4873126/1/Boys_Will_Be_Boys)

"Bereft" (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3494138/1/Bereft)

"Dog Days" (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4027154/1/Dog_Days)

My very favorite story of hers, though, is pretty much John-centric with a very small sprinkling of the rest of the team (An AU "Irresistible" - it's got Math & frog-type aliens!!): "Irreplacable" (http://stargate-atlantis.org/fanfics/viewstory.php?sid=2431) (link is actually to non-Fanfiction.net site since the Fanfiction.net site actually has this story posted as 2 stories -- but you can use Squeebook (http://www.halcyon-shift.net/gift-shop/squeebook/) to save it for e-book format, which can also be used for stories on LJ & Dreamwidth). If you don't mind having the story in 2 separate parts, then here's for Part 1 (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4415826/1/Irreplacable) & Part 2 (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4415833/1/IrreplacableThe_second_part) on Fanfiction.net.

Thanks for making this request -- I've only read a very very few stories on ff.net but with a top-recs post like this I'll be tempted to read more. :) So thank you also to the other responders!

One that I've read twice because of the OTT awesomely special/entertaining Rodney backstory is technoscribe's Breaking Walls (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2897353/1/Breaking_Walls). gen, so much Rodney, so much hurt, protective team, ~135,000 words (and a WIP sequel).

♥s snarky Rodney! So, BW, I wouldn't call it goodfic exactly (more of a guilty pleasure) but it was entertaining enough, what with the backstory and ubercompetent Rodney, to re-read. Whereas I suspect that the large majority of the stories recced above, based on a few I think I've seen on non-ff.net sites, are goodfic. :)
