Great story! I'm glad Aragorn and Faramir finally came to an understanding and can build on their friendship and commradarie. | |

An very good tale indeed. I'm sorry I didn't get to 'review' along the way, but I've just finally read it and needed to say how much I enjoyed it. It was a difficult tale to read for the interactions between the characters - but I felt that the tension was appropriate seeing as Eowyn and Aragorn were really strangers to Faramir. I was most grateful when Arwen finally became friends with Faramir. At last, someone that he could turn to in time of distress... Though I did like that he still kept a bit of distance for awhile. As much as I'm a Denethor fan, I hardly had a moment's pause on any of the 'parts' that dealt with Faramir's father. I accepted most of Faramir's introspection and really applauded that you showed that Denethor did his best to keep Gondor alive and running, if not smoothly, at least running. I loved the whole 'reason' for Faramir's reticence (sp?) with the state of the City... Well-written, well thought out story! Congratulations! Author Reply: Thank you It is always lovely to get such kind comments on an 'old' story. Hugs Helen | |

Great ending to the story. Faramir has shown himself to be a worthy and canny steward. It's fitting that Aragorn trusts him to handle the sentencing and facilitating all the remaining actions. And he does make the punishment fit the crime! Author Reply: Thank you, I think everyone has the message now that you don't mess with my Steward. :) | |

Three cheers for Faramir!!! Who ended the story in one piece - (a temporary oversight, I'm sure) - and happy! I like happy endings with the goodies rewarded and the baddies snarling 'curses'. Though the hanged ones probably find it a bit harder to say. Imagine Gimli holding Legolas down while he receives sloppy kisses! Could get some quite excited. Though I quite like the happy start . . . Good story. Good ending. Look forward to your next production. Author Reply: Thank you. After all the angst I had to let him sail off into the sunset in the arms of Eowyn. Bless you for your support. | |
