Reader:fandomfan, podcath, chemm80, knight_tracer, luzula and dodificus
Fandom: Generation Kill
Pairing: Brad/Nate with ensemble
Rating: R
Length: 4 h 45 m 00 s
Author's summary: When Peace Corps assigns Nate to East Timor, a tiny half-island in eastern Indonesia, he figures he'll have a lot of time to catch up on his reading. But the year is 1999, and the shock fall of military dictator Suharto is still reverberating throughout the country, triggering changes nobody ever thought possible. As East Timor moves inexorably towards freedom – or war – Nate is drawn into events that will define the future of the province forever. This is a war story, and as such contains some violence, civilian deaths including children, and a non-explicit reference to sexual violence. If you're all right with canon, you should be right with this.
Notes: This story is well worth listening to even if you're not in the fandom--it was my gateway fic into the fandom, before I'd seen the canon. Final editing bypodcath, podbook cover by aneas.
