Whoever says romances following LACE are boring needs to read this. It's just beautiful, especially the description of the fear uniting. *sniffle*
The one thing that struck me as perfect throughout the entire story is the narrative. There was just the right mix of old words and sentence structure while still being accessable. I also enjoyed the "merry" Elves. People often forget that during "The Hobbit" the wood-elves spent most of their time having parties. Middle-earth settings should seem very familiar to fans, and Eryn Galen does in this story.
This was wonderful. I'll be moving onto Part Two ... as soon as my eyes recovering from hours of sitting in front of the computer.  |

I just finished Ch. 15, and I need to take a break now. I don't think reading fanfic is a good enough excuse to spend the ENTIRE day in front of the computer. Although I will be back later tonight  .
I'm completely nonplussed that no one pointed out this gem to me earlier. I adore Sindarin Elves--Thingol, Beleg, Thranduil, Celeborn, Legolas--they're my favorites and no one can ever take their places  Sadly, they're often treated the worst in fanfic, especially Thranduil (and Celeborn). Of course, it's wonderful to read any story in which Thranduil isn't evil, but it's even better to read one in which he is accurately portrayed according to canon. I think his personality is spot on, something I've not ever read before in fanfic before. I really like that the OFC has been created to fit to Thranduil's personality, not the other way around. (That's a relief in any fanfic romance.) I know that you have a good understanding of canon (having provided me with the research I needed for my own fic), but it won't hurt to say it again ... Canon, oh how I love canon. 
What else can I say? Good!Thranduil ... no Mary-Sue ... canon ... Oh, Ellisk ...   |

Wow. That was .... amazing. I'm not usually struck speechless  so take that as a positive comment. As I've said before, your English is perfect, and I wouldn't have known you were Polish unless you told me. I love the ending. It's so bittersweet and just ... well, perfect. I've got to read more of your fics now ... |

Reading the last two chapters together has me very intrigued. When I read your WIPs, I'm always so caught up in what's happening that I feel like I'm mentally planning out a fanfiction within a fanfiction. Something tells me that no one but me is going to understand that.
Moving on ... I think you said in a forum thread that you thought this story focused too much on the Witch-king as an OC (and others later on). I think you're right. He is very much an OC in this story. BUT, that's not a bad thing. You've taken on a very difficult challenge of making the Nazgul real people. I for one feel a deep connection with Marillion, and that's the mark of a truly great story.
I know it must be frustrating to get more response from a one-shot humor story than for this epic. All I can say in return is that readers of this story deeply appreciate your work. At least, I do. |

Hehe. I needed a laugh today. I'm amazed that you can switch from dark and evil to humorous so easily.  Looking forward to more adventures with Fluffy ... maybe???? Please???? You know, Fell Beast III: The Return of the Fluffy could be a big hit. |
