War in the Galaxy by SolitariusLupus reviews
Commander Shepard: the 'Lion of Elysium', the 'Survivor of Akuze', and the 'Butcher of Torfan'; humanity's first Spectre. A galactic threat looms in the background as Shepard is forced to confront his past, to fight the future. General development of characters throughout; darker and grittier undertone. Slightly AU version of ME1's events.

Mass Effect Solaris: Break the wheel by Ace gaming reviews
Humans are a bunch of overly paranoid war apes. What happens when you give these war-loving apes the keys to the universe? They cause mayhem. This is my take on a more realistic progress path for Humanity, specifically based on modern prediction models. Reviews and criticisms are welcome.
