Merry christmas by the way.
Iolokus is a seven part series (the last 3 short parts I am yet to read).
The main four novels are located scroll down the link:
Iolokus
Agnates
Vix te Agnovi
Res Judicata
My thoughts on the series:
( SPOILERS )
Going to read Syadiloh before bed. Because it is Christmas, after all.
After the rollercoaster of the series; I'm glad these look like quick reads.
Edited to add: Re: syadiloh part 3 - Cordelia and Bram?!?!?! And you know I had to stop and think about the cord cutting thing with the twins when Diane was on the phone to the 911 operator. -- I suppose you could do a lotus birth if you didn't have scissors to cut/and clamps for traction (As they were DCDA twins: separate placentas, separate sacs)or I guess you could leave the cord dangling ... and if the second one is coming it's coming and it probably doesn't matter if the 1st cord and placenta is still in situ or not .... Just the image of some random FBI admin helping Scully deliver in a car was quite hilarious so I'll forgive the lack of detail.
I have very limited experience with twin births. However from what I do know: was holy crap; twin birth is dangerous without ultrasound to determine if the babies are cephalic or breech ... (unlike with a singleton pregnancy this is something that normally is known by 32 weeks and doesn't usually change and is easy to know without ultrasound...) Of course in the fic Bram and Cordelia were both cephalic presentations so it was all hunky dory.
