1: Opus One by Ryan Sylander What happens when characters rise up and tell the author, "No, we're doing THIS."
2: Passing of Seasons by Linda B An old classic, obviously personal to the author. One of the few in my library actually on this site :)
3: The Trailer Park by Wizard The start of a good, interesting, yet flawed series. It started as a one shot, then grew to tell every moment of these characters lives. The problem? The author decided to toss everything he was interested in writing about into it instead of doing new stories, so the main character becomes perfect at everything. Get beyond that and it's a great read with some incredible moments.
