A Tale of the Sixth Age · Tue Feb 14, 2006 11:43 pm

this is honestly one of the most entertaining things i have ever read! Very Happy smiley face

i spent more than one evening at my computer laughing all by myself like a complete dork, with my cats giving me weird looks and my boyfriend occasionally peeking in to see if i had indeed gone completely barking mad. (of course, i had, but that's not the point. Rolling Eyes smiley face

) you have a real talent for satirical humor, and it's especially wonderful with this subject matter. i'm very much looking forward to more.

oh, and the photoshop stuff in the first few chapters is spectacular! again, me laughing like an idiot. Wink smiley face

Rangers · Mon Jan 23, 2006 10:18 pm

very very nice, and bursting with plot bunnies!

did the rangers resent faramir's actions, or did they understand his difficult realtionship with his father and follow him willingly?

did denethor really expect faramir to go, or was it a test?

and the families of those who were killed - did they accept it as a fact of war, or resent faramir for leading their loved ones to their doom?

did any of the common citizens of gondor understand denethor's mental state? boromir says at the council that his father's rule is failing, but how exactly did he mean that?

that's one big can of worms you just opened in my head! Shocked smiley face

A Broken Heart · Mon Jan 23, 2006 10:04 pm

short but sweet. i like it. you get to the point in a very straightforward way, which i think is perfect for the harshness of the last line.

and the movies led me to the books too, so i know what you mean about denethor. it's hard to picture him as a wise but flawed ruler when you've first seen him looking like jack nicholson in 'the shining'.

Judgement · Sat Jan 14, 2006 8:08 pm

The Will · Mon Jan 09, 2006 8:29 pm

oh, my! that's absolutely brilliant.

Real Valar Do Not Eat Quiche · Mon Jan 09, 2006 8:25 pm

oh dear, i'm still giggling like a fool, and i've long since finished reading.

a herd of skunks?!? pure comedic brilliance! i love it.

When Warriors Woo · Sun Jan 08, 2006 6:38 pm

oh, such an arrogant brat he is!

i like it. Twisted Evil smiley face

i think if any of the women in tolkien's world could challenge boromir it would be eowyn, and i like how you handled the possibility. nice hint of sadness, too - "When this war ends..." - a lost chance if ever there was one.

Heirs only get in the way · Fri Jan 06, 2006 9:53 pm

Very nice. You did an excellent job of capturing Saruman's evil bastard-ness (which I've just decided is a word).
