This author again demonstrates that she can do crossovers well. This time it's X-Files and Highlander, again with Methos as a major character. For those who like the interaction of Mulder and Scully, you won't get that here; Mulder is the only other major character, everyone else is supporting or minor. Yes, this is a Mulder-becomes-immortal story (one can figure that from the opening paragraphs) but with a twist: Mulder doesn't know he's Immortal, and nobody tells him. I like the way Mulder is, sceptical and sharp, and the way Methos is, cynical but not walking away.

When Cassandra turns up... I am a bit tired of psycho-Cassandra stories, but what Mulder told her to do was priceless. (I shall say no more)

The continuing adventures of Fox Mulder, Immortal. This was good, but not as good as the previous one. One moment it's a light lets-all-be-buddies story, the next it's a grim let's-find-this-serial-killer story; I found the tone to be uneven. This author definitely goes in for buddy stories; in Changing of the Guard it was Methos and Jack; here it's Methos and Mulder.
