General Fics
Quantum Leap: The Virtual Seasons
 * Recommended by User:Spidey Terry
 * Synopsis: Picking up from "Mirror Image," Sam and Al continue setting right what once went wrong - facing new and old dangers along the way.
 * Comments: Solid work. While not every story is 100% perfect, Sam and Al remain quite in-character, supporting/minor characters from the series are used to good effect and lingering plot threads (such as the Evil Leapers and Sammie Jo) are given more attention. This has all the markings of a dedicated staff, so it's really worth checking out.

Quantum Leap: Desert Night by Rhov
 * Recommended by User:Linux Knight
 * Synopsis: Sam leaps into a man riding a Harley through the desert with a few million dollars of Mafia money in his duffel bag. Al's more worried about the location: New Mexico, 1995!
 * Comments: A good trip, it involves some Too Close To Home, including chance meetings with some of the PQL staff, has a little romance, action, excitement.
 * User:Dynamite XI: It sounds like Dean Stockwell and Scott Bakula! Plus, I like the bits where Al hears Ziggy in the Imaging Chamber, the scenes set inside Project Quantum Leap, and the '90s references that the actual show logically couldn't get away with. The fic is written intelligently, complete with detailed author's notes, and is filled to the brim with Scenery Porn and trivia about New Mexico. Had QL continued several seasons further into The Nineties and beyond, I could have easily seen this as an actual two-parter. And, that ending...WOW!
