"It was strange how at the same time both the river’s surroundings and the presence of his cousin and the ‘other’ reality were completely plausible to him. Some strange dreams he was having these days." You have started this story with great literary style. The conversation with Theodred allows you to set the time and circumstances of your story in a clever way. It's very nice to think of Theodred coming to Eomer in his dreams, explaining what has happened and then convincing Eomer of what he must do. The fading of the dream seamlessly takes us back to Edoras, and you start the angst right up. By the end of this chapter, when Theoden banishes Eomer, we really feel how alone Eomer is. Author Reply: Hi Eilenach, and welcome to the show! It is always nice to hear from a new reader, even as the story is (slowly but surely) drawing towards its end. And how great that you are such an avid reviewer, I felt like it was Christmas and my birthday all on the same day. ;-) So, thank you! I'm glad you like my epic tale of Rohirric angst, and be assured that I read your comments and constructive criticism with great interest. | |

I have been wanting to read this forever, but have not had the opportunity. It's going to take me awhile, but I can tell, from this magnificent first chapter, it will be worth the time! Author Reply: Hi there, Agape4Gondor, and thank you so much for your comment! I am very happy to read that you enjoy it so far, and hope of course that the rest will deliver as well. | |
