The following stories in the adult section have been recommended as a good starting point for any new agents to the site. Please note, that these recommendations have been made by readers and not by the staff of CI5 Operational Control, and just because a story isn't here doesn't mean it isn't a cracking one. In short, these stories are a good starting point, but there are loads of excellent stories on the site.

Roulette by Alyse and Chya

"Really well written, flowing plot and kept me reading right to the end.... built up on the different characters and had an especially good use of the "flash-back", to give a coherent background, which made the whole scenario work well together... In short, really enjoyable!"

Mind-blowing!

Cooking Lessons by Alyse

"This has got to be the funniest fic I've read all year. A definite must-read, though I don't recommend drinking coffee at the same as reading it. The boys are spot on and in character, it's very well written, and need I mention the good sex?"

Terminator by Ariadne

"This is the third part of the 'Winds of Change' (Changing Perceptions) series, and is one of the best 'angst' stories that I've read. Ariadne's portrayal of Chris in particular is wonderfully complex, and the story as a whole is touching."

North by North East by Alyse

"A topic and thought-provoking story, beautifully crafted and showing tremendous insight into the characters of both Sam and Chris. Don't miss the scene on the boat, and decide for yourself whether Sam gets seasick or not."

The Cat Tales Series by Claire

"Brilliantly funny, with a delightful eye for detail and a hilarious cat's eye view of Sam and Chris. Wonderful entertainment!"

The Billet Doux Series by Alyse

"YOWZAH! These fics are hot, hot, H-O-T!"

Payback by Lou

"Completely QUACKED!"

See You in Hell by Chya and Claire

"Incredible! A supremely dark and harrowing follow up to Alyse's 'Under Covers' that takes your breath away."

The Conversations Series by Alyse

"A truly good place to start with New Pros slash. It begins even before-the-first-time and shows a relationship going from all these firsts to problems and emotional difficulties; and all the development is shown in a way the truly makes you hold your breath."

"The story is episode quality. The attention to detail is very good, I found myself thinking "Yes Malone would say that..". The references to televised episodes added depth. Plenty of tension, gets a bit sad in the middle. Excellent."

The Shooting Sharks Series by Alyse

"Strip poker is out! Just read this story, it is hot, erotic and sexy. Very nice indeed!"

Blackjack by Alyse and Chya

"As atmospherically beautiful as it is psychologically disturbing. Blackjack's take on the format of the action thriller genre is a winning and highly sexy formula of deep cover espionage, torture, brutality and romance. Conclusive proof, if ever there was any needed, that a gay James Bond's the way to GO! :-) "
