Yay! I am so glad you're updating this story! I'm glad "Johan" is getting in on the action too! Keep those updates coming.

In the Age of Men · Mon Mar 07, 2005 1:39 pm

I've finally gotten around to writing you a real review. Let me preface by saying: I love the concept behind this story and its execution. It has all gut-wrenching of a teenage star-crossed lovers drama but with the Tolkien backstory. The combination works for sure. The dyanic with Orin and Nima reminds me a bit of an Alice Hoffman novel. Like they just can't love each other enough, but they love each other too much.

I was a bit disappointed that we didn't get to see how the Elladan & Angie thing unfolded in detail. In fact, I expected this to be epic-length with so many interesting characters, so I was shocked when it ended where it did. But if you're keeping it going, that's all that matters. I also had a little trouble justifying the points of view. It starts in Rumil's perspective and then flips to 3rd person (for which there is plenty of literary precedent), but I can't quite figure out the parts in third person that are about Rumil. How is that supposed to work?

Anyway, keep this stuff coming. You've really taken off with these characters, and I'd like to see where they end up.

Let me just say that when I clicked on the All Stories page and saw this at the top of the page, I shouted, "Yes!" like an imbecile. Fortunately I was at home and not on campus surrounded by people. I've only read the prologue so far, but when I saw the name Legolas, I said, "Hell yes!" That's exactly what this saga needs, a little Leggy. I owe you one for reading my mind. Beer smiley face

I'll try to post a longer review later, but I just wanted to say I am really enjoying this story. It's really literate and well crafted. I hope you update soon! Very Happy smiley face

Wow! This is really a lot of fun. If anyone but you had written in it, I probably wouldn't have read past the summary... but I'm glad I did! You've put in so many amusing details. And it's nice reading about a male protagonist on this site once in a while Pimp smiley face

Can't wait to see what happens next!

> but still your story is alright....but seems like its been written by a high school student. Are you a teenager?

You have got to be kidding me.... This is a great story, and don't let badly spelled reviews discourage you. And while some may consider this a MarySue (and that all depends, of course, on your definition), your character at least has depth and flaws (which are two things that MarySues do not have, by *my* definition).

I'm so glad you updated again. I was just rereading my favorite parts of the story yesterday (I love it when they listen to the CD player and when she touches his ears Wink smiley face

). But the agony of waiting! I know there is more to life than fanfiction, and I can handle one chapter a month, but when so little happens in each chapter... I need some action! Broccoli smiley face

But I like it too. After all, once they get it on, it's difficult to keep the story interesting (hey, I'm only saying what we all think occasionally). But I'd like to see some more kissing or perhaps a dream sequence to move things along. Very Happy smiley face

Wow, this is good writing. I just discovered this story today. I like the story--poor little Leggy! Although I have to admit, the idea of our fair-haired and even-tempered friend losing control like that is very sexy, even if Eowyn didn't get to enjoy it much. And I didn't really like his attitude about the daughters of Men. He doesn't know what he's missing! Smile smiley face

I like your characterizations very much. They seem pretty true to character, I think, although I do have a hard time imagining Eowyn so bent on losing it that she'd hold a knife to someone's throat. Again, poor Leggy! Those elves sure do hold grudges.

And I see two bunnies hopping around here: the one catmorgan suggested with Legolas and the daughter and another "alternate ending" type of thing--what if she hadn't forced so much of the philter on him? How would the course of events have changed?

Keep up the good work! Very Happy smiley face

Oooh yes, please do update soon! I like the story, and I must say, you've written some of the best smut I've ever read. Hope there's more coming! Twisted Evil smiley face
