A man wearing only his drawers? Oh, my! What an intriguing start to a story. ;-) And it is funny and touching, that Aragorn immediately thinks of increasing security for Arwen... I like your sensitive take on the relationship between Aragorn and Faramir, which you illuminate with just a couple of sentences. Aragorn playing the part of Sherlock Holmes is a very original and amusing idea. | |

I loved your first chapter of "Mask of Virtue"! I'm waiting for King Elessar to get curious about the recaptured prisoner... (And a quick note: "clothes make the man" is an aphorism (smart remark), in this case from Mark Twain. I love his comment, and hope you will, too: "Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence in society." ...hmm... guess Mr. Twain never heard of Lady Godiva! (Why do I have an Aragorn and Arwen plot bunny hopping around me?) Author Reply: Many thanks for your much appreciated review and welcome to my stories. I hope to post more soon. Thanks too for sharing the Mark Twain quote which is new to me. Let me know if you write an Aragorn and Arwen story,as I'd love to read it. | |

Hi Linda I do enjoy stories that explore the beginnings of the friendship that Estel and Faramir will come to share. There is clearly more to the young convict's tale than has yet been explored and I am looking forward to finding out just how his and Maglor's stories are connected. Helen Author Reply: Thank you for your much appreciated review.I'm pleased you are enjoying the story.All will soon be revealed as the stories are indeed connected.My stories "The White Tree" and "Shadow and Thought" explore more about how the King and the Steward became friends. | |

Excellent logic here. Now to find out WHY he was in prison and WHY he needed so desperately to get out. And why the blankness in Maglor? Author Reply: Thank you.I promise all your questions will soon be answered. | |
