Description
Finding himself at the mercy of Optimus Prime, Thundercracker bargains with the only thing that he has to offer: a story.

Best First won ‘Best Fanfic Story of the Year’ in the 2002 Trannies (Transformers awards) and won ‘Best Fanfic Story Ever’ at the most recent Trannies. To this day it remains the most reviewed story on the Transformers Fanfic Lexicon, [link] is still in the top ten ‘most read’ and ‘favourite’ stories and is one of the ‘featured’ stories.

The silhouette of Thundercracker over Cybertron on the bookcover is a tribute to Kaeae’s [link] Skies Over Polyhex [link] - fanart by the greatest Best First fanartist out there.

This is something of a ‘tenth anniversary’ release, but without the response that Best First received a decade ago, I would never have known that I could write and for that I am forever grateful. Particular thanks go to Iacon, Derik Smith, Zobovor, Aaron F. Bourque, Jackpot, Velvet Glove and Thomas Hamann. Extra special thanks to Merytneith, without whose feedback I would never have written a second chapter, and without whose support (and nagging and threats) I would never have finished the other seven chapters.
