I wasn’t planning to post two ratings in a single day, but I was flipping through my personal “stuff I’ve read” list and I realized that I’d never rated this… so I decided to make an exception or two.
For those who don’t already get the references, Browncoat, Green Eyes is a crossover between Firefly/Serenity and Harry Potter. In fact, I’d have to say that it’s the Firefly-HP crossover. Despite a lot of searching, I have yet to find anything that comes anywhere near this quality-wise and it definitely deserves a 5/5 rating.
The basic plot is that, following the events of Serenity, the alliance goes looking for a low/no-cost way to get rid of the embarassment that River Tam has faded to and they end up waking up a roughly 150-year-old Harry Potter who put himself into stasis before Earth was abandoned. The first chapter starts two years later when an unusual green-eyed fellow signs on to be Serenity’s backup pilot.
The story is extremely well written with a captivating plot and very entertaining character interactions. Unfortunately, I don’t want to spoil things, so all I can really do is say that Harry is searching to figure out why he is seemingly the last wizard in the verse… and provide you with a few of the shorter, less-revealing quotes:
Oh yes, it’s all fun and games until someone gets mauled by a poodle.
“Good plan,” Jayne frustratingly admitted, still smarting over the lack of support for stealing guano china.
“Yup,” Harry explained. “Those aren’t conjured food either. That’s real sustenance. A never-ending pouch of ham cubes. I used to have a never-ending pouch of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, but that was before I went to sleep.”
Oh, and don’t forget the squirrel jerky. 😛
