Nice way to interpret the challenge, and as Nancy says it was very obviously Saruman. I like the way you portrayed his character.

Interesting and nicely flowing. I liked the way this was all a sort of 'passing glance', a little moment that was over so quickly and yet summed up the relationship between Rohan and Gondor so neatly.

Kudos,

Congratulations on posting your first story here! And I must say I have enjoyed it very much. I went through a phase of reading Lovecraft and still pull out some of his short stories around this time of year. I think you captured that sort of style and eerie atmosphere very well, and I would be very glad to see you continue the story as you have said in your author's note. I think the idea is one that hasn't really been done all that often, and if you continued with this level of quality, you could really do it justice.

All the best

I think everyone has said it, but I shall say it again - I love everything about this. I love the tone of the writing, the very 'Hobbity' feel it all has, the imagery (loved, in particular, the big fat pearl moon - that is one of those similes that sticks with you for ages). I love that the characterisation is so spot on and 'real', as always. Honestly, I would pay to read your work. In fact I enjoy this for the style and everything far more than I enjoy most books I have paid for.

I always love your characterisations of Denethor, Faramir and Boromir, but this yet again was wonderful. I didn't expect this, and like Ellisk I don't usually find drunk humour all that funny, just a bit gross, however you managed to make it something noble and heart-warming at the same time as funny. You know, I really would love to see a long piece on Denethor et al's story by you - I think you could really do the characters justice and with your style it'd be a great read.

Nice; I've never seen a fic from Sauron's POV as the ring was destroyed before, and I think you captured his sense both of triumph then dismay very nicely, in an understated and very effective way.
Kudos.

Have to agree, I'd love to see this made into a longer story. Excellent choice of crossover. Well done Very Happy smiley face

I'm going to hold my hand up and wear my 'ignoramus' badge, because I have to admit I've never watched Dukes of Hazzard in my life. So until I read the reviews, I didn't know what this was (though I kind of suspected it was something like that, remembering something about the name Daisy). Still, despite me not knowing what was going on, it was still funny and very visual and made me laugh. I actually wish I'd watched the series now, Cool smiley face

Have to say I've never watched the Atlantis series, but I know enough about Stargate SG1 to still be able to picture the scene fairly well, plus the writing makes it really clear which is a great thing. Very funny ending Very Happy smiley face

I'm really liking this so far. You've got a great style and to me you portray Boromir and Denethor just as I'd imagine them. To see a Gondorian perspective on what's happening in Rohan too is really good.

Hoping to see more soon
