| Wow. Just WOW! the detailed description, the attention to cannon, the interaction of the characters, the consistency and steadfastness of Glorfinel. I felt like I'd lost someone I really knew! Just all around wonderful. Can't wait to read your other stories. Superb! |

| Wow! I can't put into words what to say. I am a twin. This well depicts the views of being always concious of living up to your own expectations compared to what you think others expect from you. Your descriptions of scenes and imagery were so well done I swear I could smell the sea! I'll also admit: I cried through the last chapter. Beautifully done. Bravo! I will read some more of your stories. |

| Since it's not nice to read and not review, I shall now review. Took me a few days to work my way through the story (real life kept interrupting). Enjoyed it much. Only criticism is it moved way too fast in some places. It reads like a well thought out draft of what could be a really, really good story. Some of your paragraphs are well done and evoke great imagery. Others seem to speed over a point almost without a thought, seems like some of the characters accepted things without even thinking about them. I really hope you have the inclination to develop this more. I really like the premise of the story, no Mary-Sue here! A very intriguing concept. If you really want to expand on this, send me a pm and I'd be happy to make some more suggestion. Can't say there was much I didn't like, just some things I would like to have seen expanded on, more in depth. I did enjoy it much. Wish there was more even. I hope you are working on some more stories. I'd like to read more of your work. |

| It is easy to get caught up in your story. Tolkien left some things unspoken and only wondered about. You have filled a gap beautifully. It is so easy to think of the first age heroes as perfect but yours are wise but accessibly compassionate at the same time. Very worth the read. I think I shall go read some more of your work. |

Wow! Zee, what to say, where to start? I was so captivated by this story! Not typically a fanfic Haldir fan but I have to say, you're Haldir is priceless!
Not just a trashy romance novel! Really well developed characters, plot (WOW), dialogue, even the songfic - it worked SO well, and lots of sexy romance on top of it all and not superficial, selfgratuitous sex. I tried really hard to read only a chapter a day (got 3 kids and hubby and a dog - very busy). My husband so enjoyed the benefits of my reading these chapters that when I had finally finished the whole story I printed it out so he could read it.
He did (is). We currently have a date each night after the kids are in bed to read to each other - in the bathtub by candlelight with classical music in the backgroud (we've never done this before, so much fun). He's not much of a fiction reader (a real techy guy) but he's hooked and that's high praise.
He can be arrogant and condescending at times and now instead of blowing up at him I just say "yes Hal-DEAR!".
Anyway, thankyou, thankyou , thankyou , will keep this one by my bed to read again!

Wow, I'm speechless! Just one word: captivating.
Very well written and detailed, the emotions were evident and beautifully scripted. I love the insights of Merry on his cousin Frodo and the ever youthful Pippin along for the ride. I truly apprciate the undying affection and loyalty of these four hobbits. Bravo! I can't wait to share this little jewel with my boys (9,6,2 and LoTR fans all!)! |

 I almost spilled my coffee I was snickering so hard!!! Thanks, made my day; I'll be giggling to myself all morning!
I think I'll send this to my husband at work and wait for the follow up phone call. Delightful writing. You really captured a moment in time!
