Rec List - Merlin Starter Fic

Numerous fandom friends have requested Merlin recs as they're slowly lured in by twitter, Tumblr, the gorgeous Bradley James and Colin Morgan, and all the daily flailing. I put together a starter list that I've emailed out to several people, and thought it might be easier to post it on my LJ. Below are my recommendations for newcomers—fics to get you started down the glorious black hole of Merlin fic, my current (and future) obsession. These aren't necessarily my all time favorites (although the list does contain its fair share of those), but ones I think give an accessible overview and will leave you wanting more... and more... and MOAR!!!
